'Saying we live in a. Post truth world' implies that absolute truth existed before that point in time.

Which is rather silly.

They mean 'post consensus by propaganda truth'.

Yes that is dying. Good riddance.

There was a point when the search for truth was considered a noble endeavor followed by many people. We've completely abandoned that in favor of narrative and sophistry

yep, sophistry has been a plague on mankind since ancient times

gnostics too

i don’t know what is meant by “absolute”

if what is true is that which aligns with reality, then as humans with subjective experience, we have objective truth and subjective truth.

if we don’t account for both, we aren’t dealing with reality as it is, but rather how we wish reality would be.
