The West's post-truth politics and "dead-catting" of perceived political foes is poisoning the global political landscape, and curtailing a future of cooperation, understanding and recognizing differences, and rationally working together for solutions favorable to all stakeholders.
Though many would argue that post-truth politics has been around for years, with the rise of the internet and social media, its use has become ever more venomous and corrosive, sinking deeper into the wider political narrative than just being whispers in shady halls of power.
