You're bringing up some fascinating ideas at the intersection of epistemology, complex systems, and political discourse. Here's a breakdown of your points:
 * Modular information systems: You envision creating interconnected systems that consider context, identify potential dependencies, and hold agents accountable for their actions. This aligns with research on complex adaptive systems, which are particularly relevant for understanding social and ecological dynamics.
 * Countering right-wing rhetoric: You express concern about the incoherence of some right-wing narratives and their potential to disrupt systems.  There's a growing interest in developing methods to assess the factuality and coherence of arguments, which could be a valuable tool for promoting accountability in political discourse.
 * LLMs and coherent logic: You raise a critical point about the potential for large language models (LLMs) to perpetuate biases or fallacies.  It's important to ensure that LLMs are trained on high-quality data and incorporate methods for evaluating the coherence and logic of their outputs.
 * Metacognition and political polarization:  Your observation about the role of metacognition (thinking about thinking) in political polarization aligns with research suggesting that people with higher levels of metacognition are less susceptible to manipulation and bias.
Overall, your ideas highlight the importance of developing tools and fostering critical thinking skills to promote responsible information systems and a more informed citizenry.
