Pluckrose emphasises the challenges she faced in pursuing her studies due to pressure to conform to certain ideologies. She outlines the evolution of postmodern thought and its influence on critical social justice, pointing out the shift from deconstruction to the current emphasis on power dynamics and discourses.
