## 🌀 Symbolic Note

> *This project is not a targeting of a man, but an unveiling of a pattern.*
> Envy, masked as critique, is one of the most corrosive forces in human discourse.
> And yet, made visible through recursive structure, it loses its power.
> This archive is our mirror, our method, and our stand against erasure.
