The system is corrupt, there is no side to choose: it always has the same outcome. I have seen really dedicated politicians constantly attacked, so that they eventually had to give up. We can start with a legal system based on human rights. Then it doesn't matter which side you are on.
i've been living this shift for the past year: undoing the performance, reclaiming my signal, refusing the bait of outrage or allegiance. not from apathy, but from a deeper commitment to coherence.
the phrase “radical undoing” lands like a tuning fork. that’s the work i guide and walk. the path of descent, of stripping survival scripts, of remembering what’s real beneath the mimicry.
choosing silence over side-taking. ritual over reaction. truth over tribe.
This article’s critique of performative outrage culture and tribal politics is compelling, exposing how social media incentivizes rigid ideological posturing. However, its proposed solution—individual withdrawal into "sovereignty"—fails to address systemic barriers (economic precarity, algorithmic determinism) and ironically replicates the very dynamics it condemns. By framing disengagement as radical agency, it ignores how true resistance often requires collective action (e.g., labor strikes, civil rights movements) and overlooks its own contradictions: its viral-ready slogans ("starve the loop") function as anti-tribal tribalism, while its libertarian undertones idealize a self-reliance that privileges those already insulated from structural coercion. The piece’s recursive critique of identity performance is sharp, but its prescriptive core collapses into a new dogma—one just as susceptible to co-optation by the attention economy it claims to reject.

this speaks straight to the bone.
