The Oxford dictionary word of the year 2016
✨ POST TRUTH ✨
Hello Beautiful People…
This blog is about Post Truth. And this is also part of my Sunday reading activitie assigned by Prof. Dr. Dilip Barad sir, Head of the English Department of Maharaja Krishnkumarsinhji Bhavsinhji Bhavangar University (MKBU).
So here we discuss about 'Post Truth' and also my views on this word..
💠Defination of 'Post Truth' :
Post Truth means which is beyond truth, truth when there is no truth, when there is no difference between lie and truth, when the idea of right wrong is not from fact or knowledge but feelings. It is on the basis of post-truth
( जो सत्य से परे हो, सत्य जब सत्य न रहे, जब झूठ और सच में कोई अंतर न हो, जब सही गलत का विचार तथ्य या ज्ञान से न हो बल्कि भावनाओं के आधार पे हो उसे पोस्ट-ट्रुथ केह्ते है)
✴️The Oxford Dictionary defines the word 'Truth Post' as..
It is defined as an adjective relating to circumstances in which objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than emotional appeal.
For reference…Post Truth'(The word of the year 2016)
💠 Frequency of 'Post Truth' :
So here we see this chart and also decided that why was this word chosen by Oxford dictionary for word of the year 2016.
💠 Relationship of Post-Truth and Politics :
Now the time has come, when the person started thinking that I would like to hear the same truth behind me, this time came the internet / social media and leaders like Trump Modi. All these leaders had to do was to win the hearts of crores with their personality. Just what, this crowd will find anything true. Leaders like Modi Trump are a core part of Post Truth Politics. Their mass appeal, personality is very strong, and they know the pain of human suffering well, they do not speak unpleasant truths, they lie beautiful which people like. Then lies and spread by social media.
💠The Daily Lies of Political Leaders :
A post-truth political weapon The recent election of Brexit in the United Kingdom, Donald Trump in the USA and Narendra Modi in India are said to be the hand of the narrator spread by social media. The devotees of these leaders believe in them as God, and believe one thing coming out of their mouths as true. In the last few days in India it has been seen that Modi ji often tells anything and that no question arises. He attacked Nehru saying that Nehru never went to meet Bhagat Singh. This is a sheer lie, Nehru met him on August 8, 1929 and as a proof, the news of this meeting was also printed in the 10th August 1929 Tribune newspaper. These leaders also deny the factual evidence that exists, but their devotees do not feel bad, they do not raise questions, even believe the evidence to show lies.
💠Post-Truth Public Relations
Communication in an Era of Digital Disinformation :( By Gareth Thompson)
This book explores the purpose, practice and effects of public relations (PR) at a time that has been variously described as an era of populism, post-truth and fake news. It considers how PR processes have contributed to the current social condition of post-truth and what constitutes PR work in this environment.
