Fictalism

Fictalism (n.) – A literary approach that blends fiction and journalism, using narrative techniques traditionally found in storytelling—such as character development, dialogue, and immersive scene-setting—to explore real-world events. While grounded in factual accuracy, Fictalism allows for creative structuring and perspective shifts to provide deeper emotional and thematic insights, enhancing the reader’s understanding of complex truths.

Post-factual

Lame excuse for wanting your way in life.

In other words, it's for stupid people.

Bravo Factual

When someone says something, this term is used in agreement, to often over exaggerate that the statement was indeed factual and that it has substance.

Objective Factuality Bias

The bias where one assumes that their facts are not just factual but objectively factual—true from any perspective, in any context, for any observer. Objective Factuality Bias is factuality bias combined with objectivity bias: the belief that one's facts are not just selected and framed but are simply the way things are. It's the bias of those who think their news source is "just the news," their data is "just the data," their evidence is "just the evidence"—while everyone else's is biased. Objective Factuality Bias is the favorite bias of pundits, of propagandists, of everyone who has ever presented a partisan view as simple reality.

Example: "His news source was 'objective'; everyone else's was 'biased.' Objective Factuality Bias meant he never had to question his own sources, his own framing, his own selections. His facts were just facts; others' facts were propaganda. The double standard was invisible to him, which is how it maintained his certainty."
