Metamodernism! Integral Theory! The limits of postmodern pluralism and the teleology that our civilization needs to acknowledge and integrate that is pulling us closer toward an ever-retreating horizon. Brendan provides some comfort for those who are miffed that the Modernist promise of future utopia and the Postmodernist promise of a return to anarcho-primitivism both are unlikely to meet all our needs or even ever truly be actualized.
He beautifully articulates the Metamodern vision that arises via reflection on those previous movements: one of forever improving the world, helping everyone as much as we can, and pitching in however possible to just make the world a slightly better place.
