    I don't identify with "metamodernism" because even the label feels clunky and, as you put it, insincere. You identified the problems with "metamodernism" well; now that I think about it it has the worst parts of ironic detachment as a defense mechanism but also has a crocodile-teared plea to be taken seriously when it suits it and seems safe.
