Compelling thread on the importance of storytelling.

Call me naïve, I just get hung up on this bit 2 tweets in: "even when it& #39;s not true..."

Isn& #39;t that it right there?

Liars lie because it& #39;s advantageous to them, but a lie is still a lie. https://twitter.com/nkjemisin/status/1325545840031784962">https://twitter.com/nkjemisin...

It& #39;s a lot easier to sound good, if you& #39;re telling a lie.

There& #39;s a reason novels sound so much better than, y& #39;know, real books. They are lies. (Sit down, novelists. Yes, you made a choice between telling the truth and sounding good, and you chose the lie.)

And then there& #39;s the right-wing media echo chamber that elevates those lies like gospel.
