__________ philosophers believe that language filters, distorts, and alters our perception of the world, and therefore texts have no fixed definition and no absolute meaning.

The philosophers who think in this manner would be most closely associated with a deconstructionist school of thought. As such, these philosophers believe that language and text are always "slipping" and evolving, and that therefore it is not possible to attribute any fixed, unchanging meaning to a given text.
