PROMPT #445 The theme for this week’s creative endeavours is FICTION The format need not necessarily be fiction, though there is no bar on using the form. What constitutes fiction in the post-truth era? How thin or distinct are the lines between fact and fiction? Do the disclaimers that all characters are fictional really mean
Defictionalisation
The dishonesty of coded credible sources creates a thin line between Fiction and Facts.
Fiction is anything framed through imagination through storytelling.
Facts is anything that actually happened that is reported through information dissemination.
However, if something is framed through imagination, but labeled FACTS despite the absence of undusputable evidence is indiscernible.
That is defictionalisation, a process of transforming Fiction into Facts through avoidance of debate.
