Fact Check Factory

They make the fact-checkers, they make the facts.

They own the factory, and we just work here.

We must repeat, after them, the factory facts, and no other.

If not, we’re untruthed. Decertified, remedicated.

Their facts make the world, and all else is fiction, banned.

The checkers are the front-line staff, who keep the workers in line.

The checkers issue reports on all communications.

New facts are minted and circulated as needed.

Inflation of facts is charged as debt of social service, as required.

Production of facts is protected under national security.

National security is superceded by global intelligence.

No other facts may come before theirs, on pain of mortal punishment.

The narrative war is the only war, all else just plot and characters.

The official story is the only story.

The official story maker is shielded from liability.

The factory manual is the only law. The manual is the narrative.

All doctors of medicine and law must be factory certified.

All citizens not employed by the factory lose data points as required.

All humans not certified as citizens are deemed nonhuman, and dangerous.

Nonhumans and other sentient species are deemed nonsentient.

No other future is allowed but the one outlined and elaborated in the factory manual.

Ignorance of updates to the factory manual is no excuse.

Questions of fact are not tolerated, as the facts are already settled, by definition.

As whistleblowers are dispatched without mercy, you did not hear this from me.
