PowerNetizen.com – In a social perspective, truth is ‘what is considered true’. If we consider democracy to be true, then democracy is true. Conversely, if we consider it wrong, democracy becomes a wrong system too.
In the context of the struggle for power in the world, the formula of ‘what is considered right’ is used optimally. The media becomes a mouthpiece for certain elites to force society to accept the truth they design. They create keywords, taglines, which are easy to remember and over time become controllers of human minds.
Huntington, for example, once issued a theory of the clash of civilizations, which at that time did not happen. The theory was only an ‘illusion of truth’. However, with the replication and amplification carried out by the media, the clash of civilizations began to take shape, following the illusion. The Gaza war, Israel versus Iran, the heated debate between Muslims vs Christians in TikTok discussion rooms mark the journey towards a clash of civilizations.
Now there are so many illusions of truth that are spread among society, which if accepted will turn into truth. ‘Strawberry generation’, ‘IQ equal to chimpanzee’ etc. are illusions of truth. There is no objective evidence that can be held.
But later everything will turn into truth. Later there will truly be a generation of weak and graceful people, easily bipolar, suicidal, and stupid people with low IQ.
Don’t forget a sentence in educational theory (I forgot who it was from): if a teacher thinks his students are stupid, then his students will really become stupid.
There is also a wise man who said: if you think you will get sick, then you will really get sick. It is said that 85% of illness is caused by the mind, the rest is due to other causes.
Therefore, don’t let illusions of truth feed us, forcing us to accept them so that they really become the truth. Especially illusions of truth that are negative. Such as ‘the country will be destroyed’, ‘we will be colonized by China’, etc. Such illusions seem to be launched by those who want our country to be destroyed and colonized by China.
Words are prayers. Don’t forget that.
