Post-Truth

This blog is in response to the task given by https://blog.dilipbarad.com/2017/01/post-truth-word-of-year-2016.html. in this blog i am sharing my own understanding on "Post-Truth".





What do you mean by post-truth?

 

Post-truth is a term that refers to the 21st century widespread documentation of and concern about disputes over public truth claims. The term's academic development refers to the theories and research that explain the historically specific causes and the effects of the phenomenon.


There is one sting operation on 6th march 2019, this operation is based on propaganda in exchange for money? I found this on one youtube video. The source of this video is "Cobrapost".



 

 this is the video which i found based on post truth. according to me.Post truth this term is also used in many manner but this is particularly used for political parties and political leaders. 


In the play "The Importance of being earnest" in that oscar wilde is quoted this line "The Truth is rarely pure and never simple".We can say that in this quote oscar wilde want to convey that the truth is not always pure and also truth is never simple as well. 


 

Now let's talk about one poem which is written by Ogden nash.this is first stanza of this poem"Humor".


 

The source of these points are from this debate video of post-truth.this video is from Jaipur literature.this video is based on one question "Are We Living in a Post-Truth World?"

  Let me end this topic with the political controversy of Donald trump. This controversy of post truth started with Donald Trump when he became president of America and after that in the context of every political party we can use this term. everyone is lier here. 



We can say that "We lived in land of Gandhi,Mahatma not Rahul"

so we have to search for truth for that we have to do some ground work on any type of rumor,fact,etc.


Post-truth is also seen in movies,like one Hollywood movie "Don't look up". This movie is based on the political conflict between normal astronauts and the president. and the media is a very important part of post-truth.In this movie the media is ignoring the truth of the end of the earth because there is political pressure and people of England used to listen to news that is fun and entertaining. 



If you want to see the truth you can refer to the website "Alt-news".
