Love the etymological dive here. Tracing "rupture" back to the same root as "corrupt" adds a whole layer to Carney's framing that most commentators missed. The call to enshrine or elevate somthing as a counter-move is the kind of praxis we need right now. I've been thinking about cumulative action alot lately and this piece captures why small intentional acts actually matter when everything feels fractured.

Yes, I think the cumulative effect of those small intentional acts works as a kind of glue that counteracts the fracturing. Somehow. Thanks for reading.
