leeneia BS: What does post-truth mean (47) RE: BS: What does post-truth mean 19 Nov 16


"Post-truth" has been used to refer recent political debates which rely more on emotion than facts.

As such, the word is no more reasonable than the arguments it despises. Because what does post-truth really indicate? It indicates something that happened after the truth; i.e, after the revelation, the discovery, or the confession.

It belongs in the same category of oft-quoted, ill-defined words such as supply-side, postmodern and ironic.

Pfui
