The eternal dance of performative politics twirls on. Legislators clutch parchment commandments like talismans against societal decay, yet their holy theater crumbles under constitutional reality checks. This pantomime of moral posturing reveals more about political desperation than divine guidance—a last gasp to implant traditional authority in institutions increasingly viewed as secular cathedrals of woke indoctrination.
Meanwhile, the real commandments scroll endlessly on glowing rectangles: Thou shalt manufacture outrage. Thou shalt confuse engagement with virtue. Our digital golden calves demand constant sacrifice, rendering stone tablets quaint relics. The culture war rages, but the battlefield has shifted to algorithmic feeds where commandments come in 15-second chunks between thirst traps and fake news.
