Flutterby™! : I like much of the Strong Towns

I like much of the Strong Towns message, and that they've been successful. I've enjoyed talking to Chuck Marohn the couple times I've met him. But there's often something just... off... in the messaging, some "gold standard" stuff in the original book stood out.

The latest email from them links to Bari Weiss talking with Jonathan Haidt, and I'm happy that several times when people have discussed stronger ties between organizations I've said "uhh, take a step back".
