echo chambers are dangerous, (but also like why is that your opinion !)

I’m learning that it’s important to both know what you like and what you don’t like as well as the reasons why.

I think it has a lot to do with problem-solving mindsets, and with my friend circles tbh we are all of the notion that disagreement is inevitable but also a learning process and involves basic respect for each others' opinions. Also we kind of all sense that everything is political/connected as-is.
I do think there's a lot of avoidance in society lately but if you want to get along better and understand each others' contexts aka build that friendship, you gotta have that space to debate.

example // in sufjan stevens’ it’s your own body and mind off of a beginners mind,(the formatting choices here are completely arbitrary) he angelically sings:
she’s gotta have it
she’s gotta dream
(she’s got a dream)
and she'll make it a habit
of doing her own thing
as so graciously told to me by genius, (this link does not redirect to anything I simply like to imagine it looks fitting) this song is based off of spike lee’s she’s gotta have it, and is an ode to self actualization, autonomy, and love.
HOWEVER, when I heard this song it became:
she’s god of heaven
she’s gotta dream
(she’s got a dream)
and she’ll make it of heaven
as so woefully malformed by my brain,
the song became a tale of a woman who is ”god of heaven.” I derived that sufjan had put a woman on the pedestal of all pedestals claiming her a god of heaven aka: God,(for those who practice)—(sidenote: what are you practicing)—(double sidenote: this is a joke) or even surpassing God. I figured that i was listening to a song about infatuation and rose-tinted perspective, much similar to his song impossible soul off of the age of adz (i could write pages upon pages about this 25 minute long masterpiece and the cover of the album talking to me while on mushrooms but alas…seek ye treasure (pirate reference)) in which he sings “woman tell me what you want“ and “you are the lover of my impossible soul.” so sue me for thinking lover boy stevens was back at it.
i do think there is a beauty in misunderstanding lyrics that can show you what is at the forefront of your brain without you even realizing. when listening to the song i was thinking of my girlfriend, (god of heaven. obviously.) and my brain jumped to connect that dot. i find that this happens very often and it usually suggests something more interesting and provocative than a simple yanny and/or laurel mishap (green needle for my enthusiasts). if you have any similar experiences do feel free to share!
