How about, I don't know, midterm approval voting instead of some sort of crimethink law? Whatever is considered, not is, a 'lie' is more or less arbitrary.

Saying covid is a virus and can kill people, especially those with weak immune systems is something has absolutely been scientifically proven. Saying “it’s a government hoax and they made it up” is quite easily qualified as a lie by many sources, and it was also something very easily found all through the USA politics during the pandemic. That’s just one example.
