I thanked Carl Davidson in the title of my post. Reading this again made me even more grateful for his reminder not to succumb to the "little cop" of cynicism.
I could say so much not in his favor, but when you see the enemy tripping, just let him. Nature will do the rest.
I watched this same theater in Havana before I fled, the gold ballrooms, the arches, and the cages. The vanity of power is always the same. It always trips over its own weight. The spectacle is not strength; it's the sound of the structure cracking.
Thank you for this piece. I write about these dynamics, the spectacle, and the collapse over at Caerith Alondar if anyone wants to continue the conversation.
