I had a thought about this sometime ago. This really undermines the "we are all equals" narrative of the french revolution and kindly re-establishes the premises for aristocracy.
Who says that only social media is manipulated. Let the children read books, it's good for them.
I'm trying not to give any spoilers, but if you want a fantasy series where everybody being equals is an underlying premise of the story, try the witchfire series by james clemens (which I think is a pen name, if I remember correctly; the guy wrote sci-fi and didn't want to be associated with fantasy).
