A thoughtful essay by Seth Holehouse (Man in America).
“He describes a process he calls “the dissidence of the normal.” It’s when enough people within a pathocratic system begin to quietly recognize what’s happening. They start to see through the mask. They notice the cruelty dressed up as policy. They notice the lies dressed up as leadership. They notice the emptiness behind the performance. And once that recognition reaches a critical mass, the system becomes unsustainable. Not because of some dramatic revolution. But because the normal people who were keeping the machine running simply stop cooperating. They stop believing the lies. They stop enforcing the rules. They stop looking away.”
