post-truth

circumstances in which the truth is no longer reliably known or figured out (due to conflicting sources and the sheer amount of nonsense in the world, for example), and thus debates are often about which "facts" are actually true instead of what they mean or how to put them together.

A prime example of post-truth politics is voter fraud: conservatives and liberals don't debate about how to solve or prevent it, but whether or not it even exists in the first place.

truthocution

To receive a deadly amount of truth. Pun based on truth + electrocution.

"Shave your head, strap yourself in, and throw the switch -- you're about to get a truthocution." -- Stephen Colbert on Comedy Central's The Colbert Report, October 20, 2005

the truth

1. Something no one can handle.

2. Something that usually is stranger than fiction.

3. Something that can be really fucked up.

Kaffee: I want the truth!
Col. Jessep: You can't handle the truth!

The truth is rarely pure and never simple. --Oscar Wilde

Truth is stranger than fiction

A censored, inconvenient truth

A UD user who constantly reposts the same definitions. Her (or his) agenda appears to be feminist, but she's bizarrely chosen a comedy website, Urban Dictionary as her battleground. There is nothing wrong with feminism but she clearly has some sort of obsessive disorder, and now that she's posted her views several times already, I think her point has been made.

Her trademark is to bizarrely preface every definition with an address to the editors, imploring them to "act with some integrity for once."

Average UD user 1: Well, just finished reading a definition. It was an amusing lampoon of gender stereotypes.
Average UD user 2: Well, look out, that user, "a censored, inconvenient truth" is attempting to bring down the website Urban Dictionary. This is of course the logical first step on the war-path of feminism. Next step, the White House!

unspoken truth

An unspoken truth is something in life we all know to be true but to speak it is taboo.

I could give some examples of unspoken truths but because they're unspoken I cannot speak or write them ;)
