Operation "Don't Be a Pawn"
This is about awareness, not control.
Online spaces condition users: chasing status, reacting emotionally, repeating narratives, providing free engagement that benefits a small group.
Users stop acting independently. They move where attention, outrage, or validation is directed. People become pawns not from commands, but because the environment rewards conformity over thought.
Step back. Question incentives. Recognize when your time, energy, or voice is being shaped for someone else's benefit.
Once you stop playing the expected role, the leverage disappears.

The Pattern
Communities rise, condition their users, then disappear—through death, seizure, or compromise. The conditioned behaviors migrate to the next platform.
The solution isn't finding a "trustworthy" leader. It's developing the internal compass to act according to your own values, not reactive programming.
