Science and culture are among the issues that have always been interconnected, with various theorists seeking to uncover the nature of their relationship. According to Islamic philosophy, science is introduced as the foundation and basis of the culture and civilization of human societies. To evaluate that civilization, one must examine its scientific foundations; therefore, if the scientific foundations of a culture and civilization are destroyed or destabilized, the defensibility of its slogans and ideals is undermined, allowing for distortion to enter its domain. One of the most significant factors in the destabilization of the structure of science is the degradation of its issuance from a metaphysical position to a realm governed by language and social phenomena. This degradation, which results in the introduction of relativity into the structure of science, also destabilizes the cultural norms derived from that science, rendering them outdated. Modern thought journalism is one of the most important tools that, by reducing sciences to superficial and trivial literature, despite aligning with societal masses, targets the scientific roots of civilizations. The contemporary cyber model of this type of journalism has a greater impact on the degradation of science and destruction of civilizational foundations due to its specific characteristics such as content construction, context-dependence and temporality, individualism dominance, reliance on multimedia, language centrality, and audience-centricity compared to previous models. In our country, active thought journalists initially aim to discredit the ideological foundations embedded in cultural elements and norms and ultimately indirectly target the core ideology of Islam and the Revolution. This article attempts to elucidate this process of destruction through an ethnographic approach to cyberspace.
