But it is important to distinguish these from what is known to be true according to evidence & so easy to do that.

But just cos you don't have a rational explanation of smth doesn't mean it's not true, according to his theory

Yes, exactly. This is my problem with epistemic relativists. Things are either true or they're not & they way to discover this is evidence.

I think it's semantics whether u want to call it truth but it does seem like an important phenomenon

It's not semantics. Epistemology matters. Facts matter. Science & evidence matter. They're how we progressed in the modern period.

PoMo & Peterson approaches which gloss over this & go into stories & subjective beliefs as the source of wisdom & knowledge are post-truth.

That wasn't my impression from the Rogan, it was more an invocation not to throw out stuff cos it lacks rational justification

Throw it out of 'knowledge' and address it as it 'ideas which are meaningful to people.' Try to find out why & address it rationally.

And that's the problem. It's broken its bounds and is contributing to the problem of post-truth, epistemic relativity & alternative facts
