## Inspiration

Further inspiration for the content on this site has been gathered from the [Street Epistemology Basics](https://streetepistemology.com/blog/street-epistemology-the-basics) page on streetepistemology.com, and from practicing and observing SE conversations on the SE Discord server and with strangers.

# What is this?

Some conversations are *hard*.

Imagine a topic – *political*, *ideological*, *ethical* or maybe even *confusing*, *contentious* or *harmful*.

Do you offer critique? Facts? Derision? A passionate plea to change their mind? Or do you just avoid it all, distancing yourself?

If you have to engage, you can do it in an effective and respectful way, with [Street Epistemology](https://introducing.se).
