This seems reasonable, but I'm a bit worried you're being sarcastic. Are you worried about this for some reason? Maybe scared of something you read in a fiction book once? Is this a good idea in reality?

He is paraphrasing parts of 1984 by George Orwell.

Your comment must be sarcastic as well. Please tell me that you don't actually believe that the government should hold a monopoly on truth...

Yeah, I'm aware there's a fictional book being referenced. Back in the real world - what does "monopoly on truth" mean?
