the post-truth phenomenon is a libtard, SJW, feminist thing, do you think he was referring to us? I doubt he even knows about this site

>My opinion is worth more than the facts Sounds like CNN to me.

>My opinion is worth more than the facts Sounds like what leftists did for decades.

AC Grayling is the daddy of the sophists. Cunts like Alain de Botton can only stare up at him in wonder.
Nathan Powell
>'My opinion is worth more than the facts.' It's about how I feel about things. Sounds like Feminism and SJW shit to me.
Ethan Moore
Post-Truth is the term given to the phenomena of people no longer believing liberal progressive lies.
Robert Gonzalez
DESU senpai this seems to apply more to SJW snow flakes and "muh peaceful rapefugees" and their disillusion of the land of milk and honey where everyone's a fucking right old sport.
Maybe the cunt should apply it to himself considering he thinks we should remain in the EU despite the fucking shit show it's currently about to become. (Already was)
Jace Rogers
Truth was never "facts", truth was what (((they))) decided the public should hear.
Manipulated, distorted, selectively chosen, fabricated "facts" are worth less than nothing.
Daniel Bennett
Philosophers.
Daniel Gray
exactly.
We need more philosophy education at our grade school levels. We might actually be able to encourage some free thinking. People who go to college for it and try to act smarter than they are and "profound" because of it are fucking total faggot LARPers however. I saw plenty of them in my university classes.

Wtf are you on about ? Post modernism is a leftist and Cultural marxist viewpoint. Sup Forums is traditionnalist What is it with leftist deflecting every critiscism to the right ?
Philosophy for the sake of philosophy is fucking bullshit. Scientific, institutionalized philosophy is empty shit worth literally nothing.
Things like greek philosophy are the only type worth a damn, because they discuss how to lead a good life and what constitutes morals, ethics and such. Philosophers that discussed the realities of consciousness are only valid insofar as their talk influences our current creation and treatment of AI.
Modern philosophers are just fucking idiots.

>'My opinion is worth more than the facts.' how is Sup Forums FUBAR? arent lefties the ones who are FUBAR?
Jayden Bell

It's dialectics Which is a marxist stragedy do divert. Always pointing out unrelated so called hypocracies
Who needs philosophy when I have the utilitarian ethics and regulated capitalist philosophy of Professor Alexander G. Jahans?
Dominic Barnes
Sounds more like an attack on feminism desu

Don't you love how these people get paid huge salaries and yet come up with complete drivel. They never discuss things of actual importance like the demographic replacement of Europeans and the fact we haven't created any piece of art worth looking at for a 100 years

>encourage post-modernist dialectic which practically rejects truth >redefine words based on the abstractions of fringe critical theory >Almost entire academic establishment is politically divorced from general society >Allow academia to lose all previous prestige through fast unchecked expansion and reduced academic rigourousness >Without critique from any outspoken right wing academics, utter rubbish is accepted as good research and right wing research is suppressed or ignored (eg. race and intelligence, adverse effects of welfare and immigration, critique of historical maxims)
>Suddenly, some look to growing alternative sources of information, which generally speaking are pretty imperfect
"Why don't the unwashed masses accept the truths we graciously bestow upon them?"
People aren't interested in academics' """""truths""""" anymore because academics have no interest in appealing to the needs of ordinary people.
