I should always entertain the possibility that even things that feel obviously true to me may be wrong.
I find it a helpful framing to instead allow things that feel obviously false to become more familiar, giving them the opportunity to develop a strong enough voice to explain how they are right. That is, the action is on the side of unfamiliar false things, clarifying their meaning and justification, rather than on the side of familiar true things, refuting their correctness. It’s harder to break out of a familiar narrative from within.
