The Ministry of Truth would be the "filter" you would get IRL (and arguably what's going on right now with fake news).
You did get that the Patriots are the villains of the game, right?

I was actually thinking about this a few months back only to find nothing that really scratches the itch, there's probably a few genre fiction books but that probably won't do.

Pynchon is your bet. Trystero in Lot 49 and the inquiry into the 19th and 20th century, failure of modernity, and birth of post-modernity in V. are grappling with the same ideas.

Perhaps Pinecone's other books do the same thing but I haven't read them.

Maybe post-modern American writers in general honestly. White Noise has some similar ideas and so does Auster's City of Glass.

Genocidal Organ by Project Itoh

>Itō befriended game designer Hideo Kojima at the Tokyo Game Show in 1998 shortly after the release of the original Metal Gear Solid. Kojima noted Itō as being one of the only people who understood the themes and morals in his video games, the latter of which would then start to write fan fiction based on Kojima's Metal Gear series. After Itō's diagnosis with cancer, Kojima went against Konami standards and showed Itō footage of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. Soon after Itō's recovery, and with the release of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Kojima and Itō collaborated on a novelization tie-in of the game. Itō was hospitalized again in February 2009, and Kojima once again released information regarding the next entry of the series, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, to him. Itō, however, died before the release of Peace Walker. The end credits of Peace Walker features a dedication to Itō.[6]

You have to dig deep into academia of systems theory and sociology for more specific things related to cybernetics, but what I've listed are the precursors.
