The Convenient Narrative: When Meaning Splits

di Cortez Davidson (Autore)

Cortez Davidson, 2026

What happens when two people witness the same moment—and walk away with entirely different conclusions? The Convenient Narrative is a philosophical examination of how meaning splits under pressure. It explores the subtle, often invisible process by which interpretation overtakes intention, and how narratives are shaped not by what occurred, but by what must be believed in order to protect identity, ego, or moral position. Rather than telling stories or taking sides, this book steps back and analyzes the structure itself. It shows how the same action can be framed as justified or offensive, disciplined or cruel, strong or selfish—depending on who is observing, what they value, and what they stand to lose by admitting another interpretation. Written with restraint and clarity, The Convenient Narrative avoids outrage, exposure, and emotional persuasion. Instead, it documents the mechanics of judgment: how observers select emphasis, omit context, and construct certainty—often unconsciously. The result is a calm but unsettling realization that many conflicts are not rooted in disagreement over facts, but in incompatible frameworks of meaning. This book is for readers who sense that arguments rarely resolve anything, that "truth" is often less powerful than narrative, and that understanding how interpretation works is more useful than winning debates. It does not tell you what to think. It shows you what thinking does.
