CLASSIFICATION: Diagnostic / Damage Control

STATUS: Restricted Access

Symptom: The reader realizes the platforms are extractive and decides that “all content is slop.” They stop producing value and start producing “meta-commentary” on how everything is a scam.

Diagnosis: This is a defense mechanism. By claiming the game is rigged, the system avoids the hard work of building a Sovereign Outpost.
