Truth is a specialization. Only a small percentage of humans need to specialize in it for things to work. Soon it will be a service/calling like the military. We'll go around saying to truth-oriented people, "thank you for your service" in between bouts of VR-ing.

I literally had this thought for the first time in the last week. Was triggered by a re-read of Goldstein from 1984 and his observation that only war made a society confront its relationship with reality, and of course war planning and tech was reserved to the inner party.
