What if elections are only the visible surface of a much deeper political system?
In this episode of Crisis in Perception, we examine Where We Go from Here by Bernie Sanders as a systems-level investigation into the relationship between grassroots movements, institutional power, campaign finance, and democratic participation.
Rather than asking whether one political campaign succeeded or failed, we explore the deeper incentives that shape political institutions, why reform movements often encounter structural resistance, and how feedback loops between wealth, influence, and public policy can persist across election cycles.
This episode investigates how movements attempt to transform existing institutions—and why those institutions often reshape the movements themselves.
