“	The Ministry of Truth is responsible for keeping all citizens well-informed and mentally equipped to withstand our enemies' vile propaganda.	„
	~ Official Description

The Ministry of Truth (MoT) is a Ministry of Super Earth. It is responsible for providing information based on government-approved facts and Democratic values to the public, serving as the main source of propaganda for the Federation through all of the channels it possesses control over, from the Galactic Wide Web to the many possible bandwidths of interstellar transmissions. All posters speaking about the other Ministries and the rest of the Federation at large are created and distributed by the Ministry of Truth in order to give the most truthful information possible to their citizens.

By and large, the Ministry of Truth is responsible for the dissemination of news and war reports. As reported by the Ministry, their reporting and evaluations have an accuracy rating of 100%. Any evidence to the contrary, or news garnered from outside official channels, is considered dissident propaganda and should be reported to the Ministry of Unity.

This entry is monitored by the Super Earth Ministry of Truth.

Attached Officers and Agencies

Democracy Officers

“	The Helldivers receive their orders from the Ministry of Defense, and I mine from the Ministry of Truth. In this way, the hands of Liberty are intertwined.	„
	~ Democracy Officer

A Democracy Officer inspires the crew of a Super Destroyer.

The Ministry of Truth is the Ministry which every Democracy Officer belongs to, with their role being to motivate Helldivers and other S.E.A.F. personnel to fight for Managed Democracy and "optimize their Citizenship".

Judging by their battle-scarred appearance, the Democracy Officers appear to be seasoned combat veterans, employed by the Ministry of Truth as political officers to dispense inspirational quotes for the troops of the Ministry of Defense, as well as update them on the war effort and the state of the Federation as a whole. It can be assumed that they can also merit out corporal punishment (including execution or relocation to a Freedom Camp) should they find any dissident activity (such as deserting).

The Democracy Officers are not to be confused with the Loyalty Officers mentioned by the Service Technician, the ship TV ads, and posters throughout the game, which encourage Citizens to report all dissident activity to their "local Loyalty Officer". Judging by the Loyalty Officers' role as active police who quell internal threats to the Federation's security - unlike the Democracy Officers who mainly act as propaganda spokesmen - the Loyalty Officers instead belong to the Ministry of Unity, the law enforcement Ministry.

Super Earth Broadcasts

“	All content contained within Super Earth Broadcasts is true and irrefutable. Citizens who express opinions in relation to broadcasts including but not limited to concern, discontent, anger, doubt, fear, disillusionment, confusion, helplessness, inadequacy or anything less than overwhelming patriotism will be punished to the full extent of the law. Serious cases may result in arrest, relocation, or termination.	„
	~ Super Earth Broadcast

A Super Earth Broadcast from the Ministry of Truth

The Ministry of Truth is responsible for the creation and dissemination of the Super Earth Broadcasts, the official Patriotic Service Announcements of the Federation of Super Earth. Every Broadcast includes a disclaimer informing the audience that their undivided attention is required by law, and that the expression of anything less than overwhelming patriotism in response to each Broadcast is illegal, with deviations presumably being reported to the Ministry of Unity.

The Super Earth Broadcasts also come in the form of posters proudly displayed throughout the Federation's territory, which inform citizens about the various Ministries and their functions.

Strohmann Media

“	Only truth can bring us together, which is why Super Earth has partnered with Strohmann Media for all your breaking news needs. Strohmann: Truth tailored to you.	„
	~ Ship TV

Strohmann News logo, approved by the Ministry of Truth

The Ministry of Truth is in charge of supervising Super Earth's largest media company, Strohmann Media, and their news channel, Strohmann News, which the Helldivers are able to watch aboard their Super Destroyers. Strohmann Media and News use the same logo as the Ministry of Truth, officially being the mega-corporation that works closely with this Ministry.

Works of Art and Other Media

“	Hey Helldiver. Want to hear something crazy? I heard that in the old days, every work of art belonged to the artist who made it. Can you imagine? [scoffs] Now of course, all art is converted to data, and then replicated over and over. Far more efficient.	„
	~ Ship Master

A sign for Ministry of Truth offices commonly found in urban colonies.

A voiceline from the Super Destroyer's Ship Master provides insight into how works of art, and potentially all other forms of media, are handled in the Federation. Authorship and ownership of works of art is now, presumably, transferred to the government of Super Earth, who then immediately converts said work of art into data to then replicate endlessly through the Galactic Wide Web. It can be inferred that Artificial Intelligence is used for this replication, which may allow for the Ministry of Truth to perform alterations on pieces of media that don't adhere with the official government narrative at any moment.

The Ministry of Truth has also approved a series of meditation videos to be shown on the Helldivers' Super Destroyers.
