Post-Truth: Why We Have Reached Peak Bullshit and What We Can Do About It - Evan Davis Audiobook
Shared by:daenigma100
Low-level dishonesty is rife everywhere, in the form of exaggeration, selective use of facts, economy with the truth, careful drafting - from Trump and the Brexit debate to companies that tell us ‘your call is important to us’. How did we get to a place where bullshit is not just rife but apparently so effective that it’s become the communications strategy of our times?
This brilliantly insightful book steps inside the panoply of deception employed in all walks of life and assesses how it has come to this. It sets out the surprising logic which explains why bullshit is both pervasive and persistent. Why are company annual reports often nonsense? Why should you not trust estate agents? And above all, why has political campaigning become the art of stretching the truth? Drawing on behavioural science, economics, psychology and of course his knowledge of the media, Evan ends by providing readers with a tool-kit to handle the kinds of deceptions we encounter every day, and charts a route through the muddy waters of the post-truth age.

Just the usual leftist drivel. Nothing but unverified claims, false equivalencies, and half truths. Just like every single bit of information the MSM tells you.

The left is loosing it’s mind anymore. Everything is a ‘gate’ when there’s a controversy, no mater how banal the real station is. Everything they don’t agree with his ‘fake news’, not matter how often it turns out to be true. And everything is a ‘peak’ when a part of their narratives come apart, and they can’t get anyone to buy their claims.
I can’t wait for the next buzzword to come alone.

Always productive to be exposed to differing opinions whether one agrees with them or not. People choose to both believe and disbelieve things based on their own inclinations, left and right. Thanks for posting, daenigma100

I sort of thought we were supposed to critique the quality of the code, not it’s social value. Is the drivel clear? Is it correctly labelled?
clouds can understand TruthBeats but honestly, I had to process loosing, mater and his and it takes longer to read incorrect grammar than correct. As well, I thought fake news was stuff that disagreed with Cheeto Benito, not supported him. I learn so much here!

The right elected a moron that is destroying America. So when the left ‘looses it’s mind’, it’s actually called patriotism.

I live in Europe and we all laugh at you Americans. You elected a redneck moron to represent you. What does it make you if you vote for a Fascist? America is a Fascist state now.
