#RIPHarryFrankfurt, the American philosopher who provided a key guide to contemporary #politics: On Bullshit.

Famously Frankfurt distinguished between the liar (who has some regard for the truth, if only to avoid it), and the bullshitter who has no interest veracity or otherwise, and merely speaks what is (politically) expedient at any moment, never worrying about inconsistency...

If you wanted one book to guide you through the first decades of this century, this was it!
