In the article, the phenomenon of post-truth is addressed from several perspectives (social, cultural, media, political, logical, anthropological, and metaphysical) and at the three levels of cultural presence, namely, in texts containing post-truth, in studies in which post-truth is analyzed and criticized, and in studies devoted to investigating the essence of post-truth in terms of personalism, classical logic, and metaphysics. The purpose of the article is to analyze post-truth at the third level, aiming to show the peculiarities of the phenomenon in the context of truth, fiction, classical logic and non-classical logics, ontology, metaphysics, the social subject, and its acts. Post-truth is a constitutive element of the culture of postmodernism and contributes to a diminished existential status of both societies and individuals, being a causal factor of globalization, simulacrization, virtualization, ludification, and widespread hypocrisy. As such, post-truth is identified as a factor in the degradation of human beings and of the values inherent in the European tradition.
