I had started a similar project, but what became clear is that

1. People on social media don't care about truth or accuracy

2. Community Notes became a hidden ideological battle ground

I now make zines and other fact sheets, print them on paper, and hand them to people in real life. They start conversations and discussions, the very things we need to return to if we are to make it out of this mess.
