retrofiction 

A term connotating the tenet that all science fiction especially fiction in the farthest of futures (science fantasy (ultramodernism)) is actually retrofuturism.

The delineation that all fiction assumes a linear past (determinism).
Retrofiction argues that fiction structurally assumes a linear past or causality itself.

That is to say, fiction is structured collinear to determinism.

The term 'retrofiction' implies that fiction has attributes of a self-chimera or is self-chimerous. That is to say fiction is self-fiction or self-false.

Ie. All representation has a self-attribute: meta-value.

That meta-value is false.
