Postmodernism - Skepticism

Postmodernism? (denial of Grand Narrative? seems to encourage Skepticism (Russel pp251)
(Go along with current norms, don, no strong beliefs?) c.f Hume?


Seems to me its all great fun  if you are successful in the capitalist game (fits American Dream?)
(Wealth, Power Lyotard in Sarup pp134) (often gained by imposing world views on others)
only measure legitimised is monetary? efficiency of system as it is?
If not any criticism of the system (Grand Narrative) is denied so you have to blame yourself > hopelessness and suicide?


What about Meta language - language games


c.f Freedom of identification UN, Human rights, slavery
