Algorithms, bubbles and false balance, sentence 10

Following someone you disagree with lets you hear what they really say, not what others say they say.

Who acts: you, scientist, others · What happens: follow, disagree, let, hear, say · To what, where: someone, you · Speech: someone speaks here

This is a sentence of the lesson «Algorithms, bubbles and false balance» of the politics course of Mova's primary school. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (you, scientist, others), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.

The tree: Mova annot: Rust (en) → Haiku 5.5 (medium, Batches API) patches; gates UD 2.18; agreed by treeagree rules (Stanza, Trankit, spaCy trf): no change. The frames are read from the tree by Mova's frames reader (prag) when this page is built, the lesson read in order, so a pronoun may be resolved from an earlier sentence.
