eigenrobot @eigenrobotso the thing I was made to understand about this stuff is that the target audience is typically the boss or commissar of whoever makes it.

an Iron Law of social institutions appears to be that entrenched careerism overpowers advances in the nominal function of the institution by so many orders of magnitude that only generational turnover moves the needle reliably.

one interpretation of "cancel culture" is that this dynamic is (at least implicitly) well understood and forcing retirements by ostracism is a much more expedient path of advancement than is typically available. for better or for worse.

Replying to @eigenrobot @TheTriarii
yeah. my generalized model is based heavily on the decadence/stagnation analysis and the resulting perverse inwardness it causes. I don't know if institutional decay is upstream or downstream of this though. Or both, for that matter.
