It's more recent idealogy, namely postmodernism. They genuinely deny the existence of universals in all respects. But I am yet to see a legitimate (philosophical) argument supporting that 🤷 seems more like a pop culture thing than real philosophy.

    Post-modernism denies grand narratives and puts forward that people will deceive themselves for their own benefit.
    And indeed that values and ideals are socially contracted, so what is "Good" will vary across space-time.

    Not that there is no Truth.
