Reminds me of the game Contraband Police that used Cyrillic Соитяaьаид on the poster which reads “Soityaa’aid Police”

First they came for me… Hey, wait that’s not how it’s supposed to go!

If they make it so only government officials can join the instance, having an account on there could act like verification. You’d be able to trust that every post from there is official and not some impostor spreading misinformation (they could still be spreading misinformation but at least it’d be official government misinformation). Meanwhile I don’t have to make an account on a government website to see the posts and can maintain some privacy. The fediverse rocks!
