PomoNews, attacking Postmodern culture since 2010.
Catalysts were the books of then Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger and Marcello Pera, "Without Roots", an early critique of Relativism and Positivism and "Explaining Postmodernism", by Prof. Stephen Hicks on which we draw heavily in these pages. The latter can be downloaded here. Sampler in Persian (PDF).
YouTube edition:
The entire oeuvre of Ayn Rand, modernist par excellence, is a standard work of reference. A practical guide in that regard is the Ayn Rand Lexicon.
Whereas the approach is philosophical in nature, besides offering incisive analysis PomoNews is also providing practical advice for surviving the Postmodern crisis.
