Condone and encourage
1. "condone" and "encourage" are opposite of each other. Does the sentence containing them mean "which condone critical parading of damage and encourage non-critical parading of damage"?
2. Does "naturalised body" mean "realistic body"?
Context:
While there is much to agree with in Hal Foster’s analysis, which connects abject art’s impetus of ‘speak your wound’ to other forms of popular culture, such as therapy chat shows, which condone and encourage a non-critical parading of damage as a kind of ur-ground of experience, it may be radical enough for art to present the facticity of alternative versions of bodily experience rather than also having to critique the claim to truth of the damaged body. While one needs to be vigilant in not simply reasserting the naturalised body, which, in its conservative versions, pits gender and racial difference as being purely biological and as outside of or immune to cultural environmental factors, one needs equally to insist on the value of the evolutionary nature of embodied experience, i.e. that the body is not a static category.
