Excerpt from a podcast I was listening to yesterday:
We’re not just in a post truth era, we’re also in a post trust era. We are fractured in our theory of knowledge. I don’t think people agree on how to know whether something is true. Scientific institutions have suffered major damage to their credibility. Government is distrusted just as a matter of instinct and reflex. We don’t trust the major establishment media. Major figures in the past of science and journalism, we often look at the now as part of the script, or part of some agenda. This is narrative warfare and we’re embedded inside of it, all of us.
