    1. This probably deserves a note on WHY I write up informed commentary on unfolding political dramas in places I care about but don't work on directly… x.com/CarwilBJ/status/1817976263614808441

    My writing on here is part of a process of understanding and archiving situations I care about. I'm trying to refuse accepting a post-truth era, even when narratives are clashing. Insisting on finding verifiable facts and trustworthy sources.

      I hope I'm interrupting the tendency to just choose one's facts based on political alignment. And helping people with liberatory, from below and to the left, politics see the world more clearly with all its flaws and challenges.

        Not everything is murky and undecidable. And, successful political work requires expanding the spaces of both honesty and trust.

          I hope I'm bringing enough pieces to the surface to genuinely understand what's going on, and that the responses to what I share can be additional pieces that make the picture clearer.

            Also, the summarizing, analyzing and sharing process demands better research. Forces me to ask in real time who I can trust, why I believe what I believe, which arguments and perspectives will withstand critical scrutiny.
