摘要
The hypothesis put forward in this essay is that bullshitting is in large part responsible for, and perhaps at the core of what we call post-truth. Bullshitting is essentially the attitude of ignoring the norms of assertion. The consequences of the widespread character of this attitude can explain why contempt for truth and knowledge are so widespread in our societies, even though they are supposed to be "knowledge societies."
