Kötülüğün Şeffaflığı

In this work called The Transparency of Evil, Baudrillard shows that the principles of development, progress and self-preservation, which are among the basic concepts that created the West, turn into the continuity of extinction and dying everywhere. The "sexual revolution" of the 1960s was not about sexual freedom; It led to the reign of transvestism and the mixing of male and female categories. With the "revolution in art", aesthetic categories such as good and bad were abandoned and trans-aesthetic copies of the "worst of the worst" type filled our lives. The cybernetic revolution eliminated the distinction between machine and human in favor of the machine; The "political revolution" that led to the end of politics has established the dominance of "trans-politics", which is a simulation of old political forms... The political immune system of the West is under threat due to the viruses within itself. The West, which has destroyed the different and the "other" since colonialism, is now a world of individuals who are copies of each other with their own gender and mentality, reproduced and derived from themselves, in the mirror of the "same". This person, who no longer lives in his "other hell" but in his own hell, has nothing left to discover in another; The only thing attractive is objects... Today, the Third World, which is the "other world" to which the West sent countless seeds of evil in the past, is seeking to take revenge on the West by rejecting the modern values it seems to have adopted for years... He defines himself as a "theoretical terrorist and nihilist" This work of Baudrillard is a lamentation, a cry for the extinction of humans and inter-human relations. It is a work that everyone who chooses to favor humanity and wants to strengthen this cry and turn it into a manifesto of opposition can participate by reading, thinking and taking a stand...
