Well be needing a different term than "Post-postmodern".

I vote for P.P. Modern. Just a simplification. An argument could be made for Poopoo Modern, but come on. We're all adults here.

I fully expect I'll recieve downvotes, and I accept them.

Edit: didn't expect upvotes, now my comment about accepting the downvotes feels disingenuous. I do stand by the joke though.

We should just retire the concept entirely rather than come up with a new term. Self-identifying as a new era is cringe and leaves one vulnerable to thinking progress is being made even when it isn't: whether we have successfully moved beyond modernism at this point will be up to future historians - not us.
