Which era of epistemology do you subscribe to? The past age of the modernists or the present age of the postmodernists?

Discuss!

On a philosophical level I find my self subscribing to neither because my personal philosophy highly values the individual and I find orienting myself with one group based on similar beliefs severely limits my individuality and boxes me into a label and a possible stereotype.

That said, I subscribe to CPU.

oh god. Just today I was grumbling over how much I hate the word postmodern.

it's so overused and overdefined it doesn't mean anything anymore. go die somewhere.

btw, poststructuralism is just a nicer way of saying deconstructionalism. there's an irony in there somewhere that I don't even want to get into.
