In a world like today in which we are all living, old-aged dogmas and radical ideological conspiracies may well have been out of the fast flowing current of modernisation. Capitalists doctrines and certain other ideologies may have, if at all, very little relevance or impact today as the post-modern generation had unravel past, big-time conspiracies to its core. Yet, this truth may be falsly leading us into a whole new metanarrative of the era which may itself be one gigantesque plot implying that there are no current conspiracies behind anything, or at least, anymore since the "truth" has prevailed. However, the fact that the disclosure of a conspiracy may be a conspiracy itself does not deny the fact this conspiracy may actually be covering the fact that there is no conspiracy in play, which in turn may be yet another conspiracy to cover another whole new conspiracy. It turns out to be a mirror-facing-mirror truth and a never ending dream-in-a-dream argument.
Which all leads us, or me at least, to a spiraling thought of skepticism. Is there still a conspicuous truth out there? Or is this truth generated to be part of another ploy to conceal the objective truth? After all, social truths are constructed rather than being self-existent from the begining. The thought of countless preceeding paths a truth has traversed in time, it is now stuck in the middle of time where it would almost be, if not impossible, to decipher how many times the truth has been twisted under the guise of an "objective" truth or a conspiracy.
Since the truth may very well not be the truth at all, it is indiscernible as to which truth would be worthwhile to believe in. And because there is no correct answer or the real truth to be a guidance, either truth we choose to believe in would not seem as if we are a victim of a conspiracy, since the other truth may be a conspiracy itself to "out-conspire" the other! Looking at it, there are probably multiple valid truths out there and that there may be no conspiracy at all. Yet, this ideal may be another conspiracy. We are living in an age of conspiracy where dominant figures may be simultaneously conspiring society whilst being conspired.
The apparent truth therefore may have its origin but certainly no end.
