In the 1980s-2000s, conservatives railed against the postmodern left for fomenting the breakdown of norms and knowledge.

But since the 2010s, it's MAGA and the alt-right who wage war on science, facts, expertise, and vetted knowledge.

It's part of their authoritarian plan. No facts. No truth. No democracy.

Defending democracy means unmasking the post-postmodern right as the nihilistic grifters and power mongers they are.

This VOX piece got it right back in 2017.
