The problem with Truth Forces of the past, such as the venerated Inquisition, is that they just couldn't be everywhere at once. They could never completely stop people from saying things in private, or from running to safe havens. If only the governments of the time had had platforms as pervasive and automated as Facebook and Google! They could have fact-checked and shadow-banned content about the earth being round or moving around the sun, the earth being older than 6,000 years, species adapting over time, etc. The damage has already been done, but at least we have proper censorship in place now to bury any such misinformation that may occur in the future.
