Impressive. When i was there this summer, i saw sporadic silent protests: people seemingly going about their business suddenly “froze” mid-walk in an intersection for 10 minutes - all buses and traffic stopped.

Your article reminds me of this post.
The study focuses on far right movements as defiance of societal norms, not belief of underlying facts.
I would argue it is to be SEEN, by ppl who don’t understand why society frayed around them while others pretended not to SEE what was happening. Now we must
