Respectfully, I think that neither Existentialism and Post-Modernism fit here; both tend to say more about the \\\"human condition\\\" than about the state of the world around the observer.
In actuality, both are reactions against the truth-centered stance that led to the rise of fascism. Existentialism responds through the \\\"existence precedes essence\\\" declaration, which should be understood from a moral standpoint, stating that there is no inherent truth about what is morally correct or incorrect, and it is up to each individual person to decide what is correct and incorrect. In short, it\\\'s a statement that everyone is responsible for their own choices.
Post-Modernism, on the other hand, follows the same proposition about objective truth (which is different from observable facts) and generally discusses the idea of simulacra and hyper-reality, which have more to do with human behavior than science: how people have a habit of treating imitations as more important than the originals, and, moreover, how for certain things, the current imitations have nothing to do with the original.
