Look at this shit. Reddit was completely unable to answer my question with anything other than sophistry and appeals to social conventions.
These people fucking go on and on about how the study of philosophy requires massive amounts of "critical thinking" but when you question their assumptions suddenly they go crazy and claim, "Well we shouldn't bother questioning that!"

I have, but you guys ignore stuff due to shitposting elsewhere.

Philosophy doesn't require a MASSIVE amount of critical thinking, it just requires a love for knowledge and the truth

Well then look at these fuckers refusing to acknowledge the truth that morality is just one out of infinitely many concepts

Isn't the concept of "truth" a fraud by itself?
Serious question, I'm here for history, not philosophy.

Reddit is filled with autism, I would say more so than here
kek, you think you're going to get better responses here?

There are essentially a few main camps on the truth question and there is no common consensus, you will get a different answer depending on who you ask.
Rationalists and people in the science community will often see conclusions related to empirical data and research as "true" but that is about as far as they go and don't humor other ideas concerning the truth
Postmodernists think that nothing is true and every concept and construct can be broken apart and changed so objective truth can never be ascertained
Lots of people think that there are objective truths to morality and that there is a right and a wrong way to act and to live, a "true" path to life
Basically it is all up in the air and has been forever

No. But maybe without such a horrifically sycophantic tone as Reddit I might find someone I who acknowledges some pretty fucking obvious truths.
