Ministry of Truth Daily Update - 10 Jan 2024 - Ecocide

 

Ecocide

"Unlawful or wanton acts committed with knowledge that there is a substantial likelihood of severe and widespread or long-term damage to the environment being caused by those acts."  These international laws also introduce penalties, such as prison sentences for individuals and exclusion from access to public funds for companies, as well as fines for polluters.  This marks the end of immunity for environmental criminals, and the start of environmental justice for the children of the world.

Ministry of Truth Daily Update - 09 Jan 2024 - Biological Boy/Girl

 

Biological Boy/Girl

• biologically female
• biological boy
• biological girl
• genetically male
• genetically female

Ministry of Truth Daily Update - 08 Jan 2024 - Banning Book Bans

 

Banning Book Bans

New laws which forbid/punish schools and libraries from banning any book approved by the Ministry of Truth because of “partisan or doctrinal disapproval.”  Not all books deserve to be in libraries, but we need to ensure that our "Top. (Wo)Men." are in charge of making that determination based on their education, experience, and level of commitment to social justice.

Ministry of Truth Just Kidding Update - 05 Jan 2024 - Coffee Badging

 

Coffee Badging

An act of protest, where employees, who are once again required to work from the office, show up to the office for only enough time to have a cup of coffee, show their face, and get a "badge swipe".  They are then free to go home to do the rest of their work.  This manner of protesting in-office work requirements may be a reflection of employee dissatisfaction with an organization’s culture or hybrid policies.

Ministry of Truth Daily Update - 04 Jan 2024 - Electeds of Color

 

Electeds of Color

Segregated holiday policy, which only allows non-whites, so as to provide a safe space against the dominant racist political culture.  Given that there are many private events held for all sorts of groups, and the fact that past events generated no valid objections about divisiveness, this is clearly a unifying gathering acceptable to the Ministry of Truth.

Ministry of Truth Daily Update - 03 Jan 2024 - Duplicative Language

 

Duplicative Language

Stealing another's intellectual property (formerly known as plagiarism) violates the research integrity officer standards on college campuses.  This typically includes things like copied academic work, improper or missing appropriate attribution citations, or omitted quotation marks.  Consequences can lead to failing grades, expulsions, or employment consequences depending on social justice intersectionality scores.  Of course, the rules are flexible for leading members of the academic community, based on their standing with the Ministry of Truth.  These leaders may only be "requested" to retroactively make corrections, to "clarify" misstatements, or provide substantial restitution to the institution.

Ministry of Truth Daily Update - 01 Jan 2024 - History

 

History

a)  The Ministry of Truth's latest revision of dates, names, books, origins, and art.

b) A tool for the powerful, providing grounding and context to society. The proper role of Minitrue is to revise and frame historical context, where views may be excised or edited as needed to meet the needs of today's society. To better match our lived experience, "our history" must ban offensive statues, monuments, mottos, and documents, and be replaced by more accurate narratives. Exposés, such as the 1619 Project, reveal the Ministry of Truth's approved anti-racist history of America and its struggle for freedom from oppression. These corrections serve to reveal buried truths, such as the fact that the American Revolution was fought to preserve slavery for the powerful, and was not a principled struggle for freedom from the oppression of Great Britain. When government fails to act to correct mal-history, brave individuals or groups must lead the way with acts of resistance.

    Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been     repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered.     And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. 

                                                                                                    George Orwell 1984
