Question
Writing a book with this one-word title forced Green Party founder Rudolf Bahro to flee East Germany as a dissident. A German form of this word with the suffix “-los” was named 2010 Un-Word of the Year. A politician’s use of a phrase coined by Herbert Spencer ending in this word led her to be nicknamed “Tina” by the “wets” of her party. A party whose name begins with this word has moderate “Midpoint” and extremist “Wing” factions and made a (*) right turn after founder Bernd Lucke lost a leadership election to Frauke Petry in 2015. Mark Fisher’s Capitalist Realism questions a Thatcher quote that “there is no” one of these things. This adjective was used by Kellyanne Conway to defend Sean Spicer’s misreporting of Trump’s inauguration attendance. A populist far-right party is named for one of these things “for Germany.” For 10 points, name this word that describes a post-truth set of “facts.” ■END■
