Behold!
We have reached to a point in the progress of the average human common sence, that many people can easily realize the fraud and deceit of religion. It is one of the simplest tasks that u can assign to your brain, to prove the deception of religion. And for me I consider it an act of childishness and lack of maturity, to even try to prove that, because it is like 1+1=2, and I really don’t need a whole crap of Richard Dawkins for that.
Now how would you feel, dear atheist, if I tell you that you are currently living in a bigger system of fraud and deception that is stronger than the good old religion, to the point that it is even very difficult to at least realize this fraud system.
Presenting: Postmodernism.
I am not refering to any sort of conspiracy theory, I am explaining a view that shows a hidden religion tied to the information age, the tool that harms us more than we think fellow atheist, more than any religion do, it is the system of new kind of faith that keep you like a sheep in a herd, more ever than that poor ancient religion that tried hard to!!
Postmodernism, is the definition given to explain the nature of culture in the last 25 years, or more precisely, the characteristics of the “information age” culture.
In layman language there has been so many new concept going on now a days, such as "hip" and "cool", and artist like"Madonna", TV programs such as "FRIENDS", and fast food franchise such as "McDonald's", these terms and cultural artifact are not just arbitrarily existing, they are representing a deeper structure of the postmodern society.
This terms such as "hot" and "pimpin" in its new usage is part of the language of postmodernism, it is the product to the era of “no point” or the age of pointlessness, in simple philosophical words it is:

This terms such as "hot" and "pimpin" in its new usage is part of the language of postmodernism, it is the product to the era of “no point” or the age of pointlessness, in simple philosophical words it is:
- The age where a meta-narrative or a mass philosophy which explains everything seems to have no longer any respect
- The age where the society is fragmented into small groups of people, and although a spoken “language” exist for the whole society, it is very difficult to explains your thoughts to a person outside your fragment.
- It is the age where art doesn’t relate its form to its content, and most of the times it doesn’t have content at all. in other words, it is the age where art has no point, or shows a form that has not relation of it is content or idea.
- It is the age of no originality, and no value, the value of everything is transformed into a “dead” value of cash, anything how stupid and pointless it is, just like "jackass", would be great as long as it sells. It is a complex system that brings feed on the pointlessness and vagueness of people, and binds multiple fragments of society together, it provide the consumer base for the modern capitalist machine.
The need:
This Post modern condition is needed by capitalism itself, and its principles serves an important purpose as in no reference point provided by no meta-narrative, which means there is no way to provide absolute judgment, no way to judge as "right" or "wrong" because those are relative words after the dead of the meta-narrative.
The contemporary capitalist society, needs a huge consumer base that totally lacks any rigid personality features, that seeks refuge in its consumer value.
The need is to create people who say “I spend thus I am!”
The basic features:
A society without a personality, is what seeks refuge in consumption, a society that spends to find purpose in its life, in the end, a society that values nothing as a thing, is a society that Denys its rights, it is the labor that needs no wage, although it thinks it is living a decent life!
What am I talking about? YOU, you work a lot, no time to have a social relationship, at least a real social relations and true friendship, your love life is probably fake, you spend your money in the mall, you get drunk just to think you are happy, you go loud clubbings, you spend money on vacations you don’t really enjoy, you buy gadgets you don’t really need, you watch MTV, you basically give your money back in return of valueless stuff.
Capitalism in the age of facebook, needs a fragmented society, this is like having a society with over 200 different group of people who speaks the different languages,,who seem to speak the same but there is no way that one group understand exactly what the other is trying to say. Thus there is no way to spread consciousness and awareness, and this is the basic principle, to divide and conquer.
Maintenance:
Now that we have fragmented the society, we need to maintain this fragment; we need to always remind the people subconsciously to forget about a meta-narrative, and to stay in the small scale groups. How? Simple. Hip hop, MTV, little bit of HOLLYWOOD does that? A little bit of art that has a form that appeals, and yet, the point has no relation to it, or… there is no point at all. Yes, when raihana sings umbrella , ela, ela, eh, eh, she totally has no intention to explain any point by this stupid poetry, and yet, she still use the art form of her sexy ass, to explain this no point? So the form is sexiness, and there is no point, or the point is that she will put you under her umberla, ela, and still she shows her sexy body to explain that? Yes this is cool, this is what this term cool means, and this term, no one will understand outside this small group who watches MTV, here we go again, a fragmented society.
And though shalt sleep!
Now to finish this cycle, we have to lock it, tranquilize all people, by denying originality. In the po mo society, originality is forbidden. If you want to be cool, and stick to the trend, distort classic art, you will be welcomed, else, you wanna have your own intellect to guide you, you are a geek, and you have to perish. Easy and simple. Creativity is the source of awakenss tfor he human mind , and a creative work of art, such as beethovens, spreads a message to all humanity, to think on their own. This is forbidden now! Who listens to beethoven? Those who try to be "uncool" and emvrace their geekness, are doing a forbidden act and deserve punishment! Just like how unbelievers in catholic tradition were burned at the stakes, the ones who try to break the system of post modernism, will be burned at the stakes of the social life! What is worse than being labeled as a geek in a post-modern high school and be frowned up on by all, what’s worse than no social life, and humiliation. Exactly the same impact of public torture and execution, with very cool terms.
And now, even love is turned into a meaningless cycle of clicks and winks in facebook. This is the misery of humanity in theis age, this is how love is in the age of postmodernism, the age of facebook. This is how we became valueless people, and people without a clear goal or target, and if we had it is very personal, actually, our porpose is to work, and consume, your value, your respect in the society, depends on how much you make money, and how do you consume it, think about it, if you have a ferrari, if you have a brandnew phone, people will respect you. This is the charecter of the new faith, that keeps the industry and under the control of the new clergy and bourgeoisie together. Yes did i say bourgeoisie, they are the capital owners, did i say clergy? yes they are the faith guardians, the media people, the actors, the cool people, they are the philosphers that guards Postmodernism. So, don't we need another 14th of july?
