Sh... that's the secret. Nobody really understand deconstructionism. It's like a secret society.
I am an Engllish major grad (1997) and the last professor I had was the only one willing to say this, adding that English Literature in American colleges is dead due to this garbage, (as well as most of the classic Liberal Arts.)
I try to argue the fact to my liberal friends that at the logical end of postmodern thought, there is no reality, let alone meaning, but, true to form, they are lost on feeling superior to everything and everyone, and ironically, all thinking the same, therefore being bigger conformists than those they seek to disdain.
My capacity to mete out such true logic and rational thought I think, is constantly seen as a threat by them (not to mention my love of America, guns and fine whiskey.) This article puts the finger on my constant frustration with the left.
