"McIntyre, whose book is perhaps the most thoughtful of the post-truth
set, also urges us to root out untruth before it festers. But he calls
for introspection, even humility, in this battle. 'One of the most
important ways to fight back against post-truth is to fight it within
ourselves,' he writes, whatever our particular politics may be. 'It is
easy to identify a truth that someone else does not want to see. But how
many of us are prepared to do this with our
own beliefs? To doubt something that
we want to believe, even though a little piece of us whispers that we do not have all the facts?'”
