Post reality
Virtual world based on algorithm, metaphor and processing
After the post modern era begins a post reality epoch where most everything has been processed from medicine, news, TV, search and even the food we eat right down to the trout stocked in waters from hatchery to lake.
Post-reality
Post-reality is the normalization of the digital age we live in. It is the authentication of our social media lives overlapping what we view as normal. We are living in a time when it is common for everyone's public display of their lives to be romanticized-- Fiction is reality and reality is fiction. It’s up to you how to perceive it.
We are all living in post-reality.
Post pandemic reality
Hopefully in the post pandemic reality, people remember what they forgot during the pandemic, that they never needed normalcy or hope. The dysfunctional lives most of us led before somebody tried to pause them and make them normal will return, and because most people don't think the sky is going to fall because they see a condo building collapse on the news, they won't need a celebration of hope, or a daily dose of hope to be happy. They will be happy without it, knowing they never needed it, since hope and positive/boundlessly optimistic thoughts are for weak people and cynics.
The post pandemic reality won't be a new normal, it will be the same old dysfunctional world some people have forgotten they missed. Nobody will miss what they are told the new normal is, nobody will miss the wildfire spreading, or what they are told the new world order is. The old stuff is still around.
Post-reality
Post-reality is the normalization of the digital age we live in. It is the authentication of our social media lives overlapping what we view as normal. There's no reality without the digital world. We are living in a time when it is common for everyone's public display of their lives to be romanticized -- where fiction is reality and reality is fiction. It's up to you how you perceive it.
We are all living in post-reality.
