Status Updates From Critical Theory Today: A Us...

We are multiple and fragmented, consisting of any number of conflicting beliefs, desires, fears, anxieties, and intentions.
As we grow up, we internalize through language the ideological conflicts and contradictions of our culture, each finding a way to “fit in” by finding a way to deny, both to ourselves and others, the fragmented experience of ourselves produced by the ambiguous language within which we live.

for school/ focused on deconstruction but some notes:

Language disseminates; infinite number of possible meanings; no center to our understanding of existence.

Language is constantly overflowing with implications, associations, and contradictions that reflect the implications, associations, and contradictions of the ideologies of which it is formed.

We exist within the language into which we were born into.
