What is truth?
Didn't Johnny Cash approach this subject a long time ago?
Considering the societies we live in are, essentially, socialist republics---that is, societies ruled solely by word of law---anything the lawmakers state in writing and have officially enacted is pretty much determined to be fact or truth (or at least collective gospel).
This means any society can "change" its own reality, history, morality, social construct, and just about anything else, with but a stroke of the pen. Because in a socialist republic "The Law" rules over everything else.
What "happened in the past" will be whatever the official narratives SAY happened in the past (actual facts and reality be damned)
"Right" and "wrong" are purely subjective, prone to the whims of whoever's in charge and whatever they hold in highest esteem in terms of whatever they consider "proper".
What's "important" is whatever whoever's in charge decides is of highest priority.
