A higher-order concept of truth that refers not to the factual correctness of a single statement, but to the accuracy and usefulness of the overall framework, narrative, or model within which individual facts are interpreted. A metatruth is about getting the story right, even if some details are fuzzy. It’s the difference between knowing isolated facts about the 1929 stock market crash and understanding the metatruth of systemic financial over-leverage and speculative mania as its cause.
Metatruth Example: In politics, a candidate might tell a dozen verified facts (truths) about crime statistics, but weave them into a metatruth narrative that "the nation is in a catastrophic moral decay," which may not be factually supportable. Opponents will battle over the isolated facts, but the election is often won or lost on which emotionally potent metatruth voters accept.

Meta-Truth

A truth that operates on a level above regular factual claims, dealing with the nature, construction, and limits of truth itself. It's not about whether a statement is true (e.g., "the sky is blue"), but about the framework that makes such an assessment possible (e.g., "truth is a relationship between statements and a socially-agreed-upon reality"). Meta-truths are the rules of the truth-game, often emerging in philosophy, postmodern critique, or when someone says, "Well, technically, truth is subjective." They're the truths you use to deconstruct other truths, often leaving you intellectually satisfied but unable to win a simple argument.
Example: "In the debate, he pulled a meta-truth: 'Your facts are all correct, but they're trapped within a capitalist paradigm that defines value through growth, which is itself a constructed truth.' He was factually obliterated, but claimed a higher, meta-truth victory that pissed everyone off."
