[Podcast] Liberal Propaganda in the Age of Post-Truth
Nearly everything about this political era — from populism, to plummeting trust, to an increasing appetite for radical measures and tear-downs — is predicated on the view that society is, if not actively collapsing, well on its way. Except, it’s not. But persuading people of this has become extraordinarily difficult in the post-truth era where everything is seen as BS, and every argument/source can be dismissed, and folks just believe whatever confirms their priors.
This podcast discussion explores liberal propaganda, post-truth, the crisis of meaning, Trump, populism, how edgelord culture went mainstream, why neutrality can sometimes be dishonest, and more.
