Frankfurt<\/a>\u00a0.\u00a0In 2005, in a short text entitled\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.unebook.es\/es\/libro\/on-bullshit_165153\"><em>On Bullshit<\/em><\/a>\u00a0, Frankfurt analyzes the phenomenon of charlatanism and contrasts this phenomenon with lies.\u00a0This contrast is currently being debated with great intensity, for example, in the field of pragmatics.<\/p>\n<p>This American philosopher is concerned about a figure who at that time, with the surprising changes in the universe of communication, is constantly expanding in different forums: the charlatan.\u00a0The charlatan belittles the truth, ignoring it, stepping over it.\u00a0He talks incessantly, produces speeches.\u00a0His attitude is not that of the liar.<\/p>\n<p>However, Frankfurt emphasizes, there is something disturbing about his figure.\u00a0And it is that historically it has been less tolerant with the liar than with other forms of deception.\u00a0The liar has always been persecuted and punished (&#8220;You will not bear false witness or lie!&#8221;, Read the Catholic commandment).\u00a0The charlatan, at best, has been mocked.\u00a0Frankfurt, on the other hand, sees a terrible threat in this last figure: it is the beginning of post-truth, even before a name was created for this phenomenon.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Truth and Politics: Hannah Arendt<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Earlier (late 60s, early 70s of the 20th century),\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/es.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Hannah_Arendt\">Hannah Arendt<\/a>\u00a0also talks about this phenomenon.\u00a0Arendt makes a very interesting analysis about the intrinsic relationships between politics and lies, and glimpses new developments in this relationship.<\/p>\n<p>It verifies that the lies of his time (among other cases, he deals with the famous Pentagon Papers) are no longer about secret questions but about well-known questions.\u00a0Check that the policy follows advertising strategies.\u00a0It signals that contempt for the truth that is leaving us without the compass required to be able to walk and advance in our lives with minimal guidance.<\/p>\n<p>These advertising strategies of the public powers open the doors to new totalitarianisms (Arendt is a great connoisseur and analyst of the totalitarianisms of Hitler and Stalin).\u00a0It is, therefore, a real threat.\u00a0He considers that the phenomenon of contempt is affecting what he calls &#8220;repositories of truth&#8221; (truth reserves): the judicial system, the university and the educational system in general;\u00a0science (which, in her words, has been possible thanks to a desire for objectivity) and finally journalism (which she practiced, for example, in the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/es.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Adolf_Eichmann\">Adolph Eichmann<\/a>\u00a0case\u00a0).<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Post-truth is not left or right<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>There is a great debate about the origins, roots and evolution of this attitude of contempt.\u00a0Many authors (see\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.unebook.es\/es\/libro\/posverdad_250280\">McIntyre<\/a>\u00a02018, chap. 6) have argued that this attitude has gradually moved from an ideological perspective: from being typical of left-wing political thought (critical of the absolute nature of truth or knowledge or science), to link with the right (Trump is the great model).<\/p>\n<p>However, as interesting as this debate is from a historical, political and conceptual point of view, what is really problematic is that post-truth is permeating everything around us, from the closest to the most remote.\u00a0It is not a question of left and right.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Disregard for the truth<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>What is new is not that you lie or deceive yourself about this or that.\u00a0What is new is that the truth itself is belittled.\u00a0It is disturbing to see ignorance\u00a0<em>arrogantly<\/em>\u00a0manifesting itself\u00a0in the face of the stupefaction of the investigator.\u00a0Think of the denialist protests related to the pandemic, or denialism regarding evolutionism or climate change, or the conceptions linked to the anti-vaccine movements.<\/p>\n<p>What is new is that the concepts around which certain human activities &#8220;necessarily&#8221; revolve are undervalued.\u00a0For example, it is no longer a matter of debating whether an article or journalistic work is more or less objective (an interesting, difficult and inalienable debate, in my opinion), but rather that with the slogan &#8220;objectivity does not exist&#8221; such reflection is paralyzed, the door opens to another conception of &#8220;journalistic&#8221; activity.\u00a0Where is the journalism represented in the excellent movie &#8220;Spotlight&#8221;?\u00a0Returning to Arendt&#8217;s words and applying them in another context, denying &#8220;the desire for objectivity&#8221; is opening the ban on another &#8220;journalism&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, similar reflections and concerns can be applied to other areas.\u00a0In times of COVID and uncertainty, what haven&#8217;t we heard about science?\u00a0What idea of \u200b\u200bscience does denial convey?<\/p>\n<h4><strong>The importance of repositories of truth<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>We have climbed one step on the path of deception.\u00a0Truth itself and a whole series of concepts (called \u201cepistemic concepts\u201d) that are satellites of it are undervalued: objectivity, consistency, impartiality, sincerity, contrasting beliefs (hypotheses or theories), respect for evidence. , precision, recognition of fallibility and the search for minimization of errors, self-correction &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>There are now more means than ever for the massive deployment of a post-truth environment.\u00a0Among other elements, new technologies and social networks provide a suitable habitat for their development.<\/p>\n<p>What to do?\u00a0Remembering Arendt, let&#8217;s protect repositories from the truth.\u00a0How?\u00a0Being faithful to the values \u200b\u200bmentioned above, at least in human activities where those values \u200b\u200bare required.\u00a0Of course, that fidelity is accompanied by numerous obstacles and failures.\u00a0Post-truth ignores all this, plays (or pretends to play) on another terrain.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Author Bio:<\/strong> Agust\u00edn Arrieta Urtizberea is Professor of Philosophy at the University of the Basque Country (UPV-EHU) at the University of the
