Absurdities in Society that are (in)Visible in plain sight

“All are equal’’ is the most preposterous term in society as there is an unbridgeable inner conflict with experience and underlying reality in every individual as the two extreme ends. Every individual who chooses to live a contemporary life in this society that has a curbing control structure will eventually get used to alienating, coercing, stigmatizing, and so forth. The long-standing concept of classical absurdism and helplessness has pushed humankind to develop non-existential ideas that later became the pillars of society — “Money, God, Religion, Politics”

Although they are the root cause of so much suffering and pain in this world, humankind has made it a mandate in this society. The rapid advancements in scientific and technological fields push us to be more entangled in worldly affairs which makes us an open target to the negativity of other people. What I label as non-existential ideas have wired humans ironically tending them to find meaning in their lives. The never-ending conflict between existing with free will stumbling along with the laws of physics and finding the ultimate purpose of life in this society has been hacked by the tendency to survive, reproduce, and adapt.

While society has been carried on by the shoulders of formulated models such as capitalism, communism, and democracy, the meaning of everything extends to anything deconstructable and conceded as beautiful. Social integration and separation will go hand in hand with societal domination and submission as it is the stepping stone for stratification in the community.

While the market structure is determined by alloys and polymers, and institutionalized systems of beliefs and practices, they also override the hindrances in societal acceptance and unity. Supply and demand determine the market and they are influenced by technology and the value of work in the modern world. The ones whose work cannot be replaced forge ahead to grow in terms of monetary value and fame in this society. As every individual is measured by religion, economic status, education, and occupation, they easily get dragged into some kind of deep sociological controversy which also involves the prism of an interdisciplinary theory of gender and equality.
