Hyperreality

Hyperreality is the inability for a person to distinguish what is real or not. One example of the is the body spray axe which states "the axe affect". This company tells people that if you wear this spray women will be more attracted to you, which is false. People may believe this because of the commercials on TV. Another place where you can see is in rap stars. One person that raps about being from New York and being "hood" Ja Rule, even though he is from a small town in not in the city. Rappers and all artists may sing about one this about themselves, but in the end it could not be ture. Hyperreality is extremely relevant and people need to understand what truth is and be able to choose between the two.
