Creating understanding is hard
It is hard to push past the noise and understand underlying problems. Innate biases stemming from our biology and social realities make it difficult to see the world as it might be more completely seen.

A few simple questions will help
IsXY!? provides a simple way to look at evaluate, and share information that you find on the internet. Providing a way to visualize the way other people and AI evaluates the information puts it into a context that helps to bring it greater weight.
Focusing on the questions Is This (some meme or image) Y? Where Y is accurate , simulated , useful , or inspiring provides stepping micro mutual-alignment for both people and AI.
