I have views I would never share on here. I live in a liberal leaning community, and have few conservative acquaintances. But several times a day, safe off social media or away from social monitors, I find people share similar views and resentments. Kids outside of school voice the same things.

Even to discuss these things is a taboo, or to question any of what is somehow now established canon. To voice any of it is to be labeled, attacked and dismissed. Language is controlled, and words and concepts narrowly defined. As the old world splinters into for and against, there is no middle now.

I write this because I feel disingenuous. I don’t fit here, and I don’t fit on Twitter. I feel I am mostly liberal, but now it’s driven more by collectively wanting to oppose the far right. I long for a community of open communication, discussion, honesty, and nuance. Maybe that can’t translate 2 SM
