Wikipedia works because it is a meritocracy, unlike politics or business. We confuse competition with merit. Competition gives us great tennis players, but does it give us the best leaders? Let us rethink what winning means for society.

A surgeon always thinks the answer is surgery, and a psychotherapist thinks it's all in your head. Your specific expertise is actually blinding you to the real problem. Stop trying to force your professional toolkit onto every issue and learn to see the system as it really is.
The tech utopia of the 2010s ignored one crucial rule: the Neutral Point of View. A hive mind thrives on objective facts. But what happens when you introduce subjective political opinions? This is why the hope of a wiki government didn't get further than books.

Most people think democracy is just about voting, but there’s a "depolarisation machine" hidden in our history. By bringing back the jury-style model of representation, we can finally reduce the power of lobbyists and special interests. It’s time to balance the stool again.
When a lion cub playfully bites its mother, it’s learning how to survive. That instinct is why humans invented theatre. We play out events to understand our reality. From childhood to the language you speak, human connection is one massive game.
We're wrecking the "game" of society by letting partisan interests run the show. From the courtroom to your social media feed, the lack of a neutral umpire is fuelling dysfunction. It's time to demand a reality we can actually share again.
It’s commonsense: the rules of the political game need to be kept out of politicians’ hands. But where most democracies did that, the United States did not and is now backsliding on gerrymandering, voter suppression and partisan courts.
Think the courtroom is about finding the truth? It’s actually a strategic game where the side with the most money buys the most convincing PhD. You deserve to know how adversarial justice is making fairness a luxury most people can’t afford.
Politics is broken, but we already found a cure: there is a way to bypass endless ideological debates and focus on serving the public interest. The answer lies in a house with no formal power but a massive influence.
You’re not difficult. Your problems are not an inconvenience. You are not too much! #mattsfoundation #4mattmsmf #mentalhealthmatters
Politics shouldn’t be this complicated. You should be able to see everything clearly.

Q: Trump says he doesn't care about the midterms. Do you think he's focused enough on domestic policy? MIKE JOHNSON: What he said was taken out of context and it's so unfair. This president spends more time on domestic issues in one day than Biden did in four. That's an objective fact.
