Baudrilard and Fake Meat
Several govt agencies is under fire as NST revealed that the nation been consuming fake halal meat - where beef is replaced with kangaroo, parts of diseased meat for everyone's consumption for 40 bloody years......
this is what you get when the price of imported meat is cheaper than local ones.
Baudrillard's concept of simulacra -
The second stage is perversion of reality, this is where we come to believe the sign to be an unfaithful copy, which "masks and denatures" reality as an "evil appearance—it is of the order of maleficence". Here, signs and images do not faithfully reveal reality to us, but can hint at the existence of an obscure reality which the sign itself is incapable of encapsulating.
