Post truth

                   POST TRUTH
            Word of the year


                 After much discussion, debate and research ,the Oxford dectionaries word of the year 2016 is Post Truth . This task is given by Dr. Dilip Barad sir as a sunday reading.

Definition of Post Truth :

Definition of Cambridge Dictionary:

"Relating to a sistuasit in which people are more like to accept an argument based on their emotions and beliefs , rather than based on facts."

Definition of Oxford Dictionary :

“relating to or denoting circumstances in which objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief.”

Other Definition:

"The fact or state of being post truth , a period or situation in which facts have become less important than emotional persuasion."

Post Truth political and philosophical:
               
  Post truth is a philosophical and political concept that refers to political culture in which debate is framed largely by appeals to emotion disconnected from the details of policy.
     
                  The delibradel falsehood deals with the matter of contingent facts that carry no inherent truth witthi themselves, no neccesity to be as they are. Factual thruth are never compellingly true.

             
                Not as post truth as many "Truth" is truth in the poeples mind there is a lot of fake and philosophical ideas which deliberate appeals to emotion rather than fact.

                       Thank you.....
