Since hardly anyone is interested in the topic of antidisestablishmentarianism any more, I declare this the age of postantidisestablishmentarianism.

Not necessarily. It could also be postdisestablishmetarianism. It could even be postestablishmentarianism.

It's all just postantidesastantrumanism. Which was a wholesome movement in its time.
