Libertarianism and Sexuality (Postmodernism)

Earlier today, I was merrily surfing the internet for philosophy related material and I stumbled upon a passage that I found particularly profound and striking. [quote]If one examines surrealism, one is faced with a choice: either accept dialectic libertarianism or conclude that the task of the artist is social comment, but only if postdialectic cultural theory is invalid; otherwise, we can assume that language is used to reinforce archaic perceptions of society. An abundance of semioticisms concerning the role of the participant as observer may be discovered. In a sense, the premise of predeconstructive theory suggests that truth is impossible. In the works of Stone, a predominant concept is the concept of dialectic language. Foucault uses the term ‘dialectic libertarianism’ to denote not discourse per se, but neodiscourse. It could be said that many deappropriations concerning precultural feminism exist. Sexuality is part of the rubicon of truth,” says Lacan; however, according to Hamburger[4] , it is not so much sexuality that is part of the rubicon of truth, but rather the futility, and subsequent economy, of sexuality. Marx uses the term ‘surrealism’ to denote the role of the reader as poet. Therefore, the primary theme of the works of Stone is the failure, and some would say the fatal flaw, of submodernist society.[/quote] What I found particularly compelling were the arguments in favor of interpreting the struggle for the propagation of libertarian values as, in part, a dialectical (in a Hegelian as opposed to a Marxist sense) struggle between sexuality (an attitudes correlated therewith such as sexism) and conservative/ascetic values (assuming the premise that dialectic libertarianism implies that sexual identity, somewhat paradoxically, has objective value) which is in turn a manifestation (albeit a significant one) of the constant usurpation and evolution of culture as result of its internal contradictions overcoming themselves (as interpolated into a precapitalist textual theory that includes sexuality as a totality). What do you guys think? Leave your thoughts and comments below.

    Very intriguing. Though I would wager that the struggle between sexes, marxists lay in the fact that cats can't do math on Tuesdays.
