Donald Trump's speech from the Oval Office on Tuesday was fact checked to death in an effort to discredit him based upon his in ability to be factually accurate. The inference is that those who are intentionally inaccurate are lying and liars are unworthy of holding the office of the President. We agree that all presidents should be fact checked and held accountable, both sides of isle ignore conveniently ignore facts and promote narratives that promote positions and agendas. This is the result of living in a post truth world. In a post truth world, people choose emotions and feelings over facts and evidence and create narratives which promote their positions. They ignore the facts that discredit their own positions while using facts that conveniently discredit narratives that they reject. People who do this are simply attempting to create and control a world that fits their preferences through the use of Power. Friedrich Nietzsche said that in the absence of truth, people would resort to Power to control and influence their world. Power has no concern for kindness or compassion, yet seeks control and influence by any means necessary, even violence. Nietzsche predicted that in the absence of truth, the 20th century would be the bloodiest on record through the use Power, and it was. Without truth, Power could still write the history of the 21st.
