What Are Facts: Rationalism and Empiricism

The word “facts” is becoming more and more popular in conversations regarding politics and problem solving. One might often hear that their side has all the facts while the other side does not. We use the word ‘facts’ almost in an antagonistic way, in this sense. But what are facts? Are there different types of facts? Are all facts equal? In this video, I hope to explore this question while also offering a very basic introduction to epistemology.
