There’s something strangely honest about tracing a meme back to its misattribution—

like peeling away borrowed wisdom to find nothing underneath but longing.

We want truth fast, but truth was never meant to be fast—it was meant to be felt, wrestled with and lived through.

And maybe that’s why your question about tariffs hits different...

Because even in politics, especially in politics, we forget that unintended consequences can still hold meaning. Not everything that hurts us was meant to, and likewise, not everything that helps was planned.

Maybe slowing trade won’t save the planet.

But maybe it forces us to ask slower questions.

That’s perhaps where change starts.
