Resumen:
The chapter deals with the debate over the representations of the State Crimes in Argentina during the 70s. It deals with the role of the Theory of the Two Demons from the 80s to the XXIst Century (in which it appeared as a "Reloaded" version. It analyzes the different element of post-truth present in this reloaded version and the role of mechanisms of relativization, false equivalences, paranoid conspirative frames and over-simplification and the main mechanisms in which denialism used to work and the connection with post-truth narratives.
