Commonly referred to as “fact-checkers,” fact-chokers are hirelings contracted by Ministry of Truth tentacles such as the Trusted News Initiative (TNI) to “debunk” facts that threaten regime narratives.
Coined by Margaret Anna Alice in response to a November 18, 2021, el gato malo Substack post requesting ideas for a new name for “fact check,” the term has since appeared in numerous pieces at the Margaret Anna Alice Through the Looking Glass Substack.
Other variations on the term include “fact-choking” and “fact-choke.”
To reveal the Orwellian nature of this totalitarian tool of mind control, “fact-choker,” “fact-choking,” and “fact-choke” should be substituted wherever references to “fact-checker,” “fact-checking,” and “fact-check” appear.

Get the Triple Facts mug.The dilemma that facts are not raw, uninterpreted bits of the world, but are always "theory-laden." What counts as a fact depends on the conceptual framework you're using. A fact is a statement about the world that we agree is incontrovertible within a given paradigm. The hard problem is that when paradigms shift (e.g., from Newtonian to Einsteinian physics), old facts can become false or meaningless. This means facts are not eternal building blocks of knowledge, but temporary settlements in an ongoing negotiation between observation and interpretation.
Example: For centuries, "The Sun revolves around the Earth" was a brute fact, confirmed by daily observation. The shift to heliocentrism didn't change the raw data (the sun's motion in the sky), it changed the interpretive framework. The "fact" became "The Earth rotates, creating the illusion of solar motion." The hard problem: There is no neutral observation language. What you call a fact reveals your theoretical commitments. A fact is like a piece in a puzzle—it only has a definite shape and place relative to the picture you're trying to build. Hard Problem of Fact.
