🌀 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.
