Commoditas, o, la nueva virtud de las sociedades satisfechas

If the virtus of antiquity was strength, bravery and courage, and in Modernity, diligence, work, merit and effort, today the commoditas has been installed, a kind of nihilistic pseudo-virtue that claims the idleness, radical egalitarianism, and entertainment. Contemporary postmodern society has surpassed both Greco-Roman philosophical metaphysics and Christian theology, both rationalism and enlightened empiricism, as well as romantic-decadent idealism and materialist positivism, so society has entered a sort of end of history of self-indulgent and self-satisfied playful nihilism. We conclude that commoditas is here to stay and will reconfigure the nature of the human being based on a new mentality that pales tradition to the point of practically annulling it
