Scenario

When intellectual groups become performative rather than exploratory

My study group started because we all wanted to push each other's thinking, but somewhere along the way it became a place where we perform our intellectual positions rather than actually examine them. I think we're all doing it and I think we all notice it, but no one wants to be the person who calls it out.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

You've collectively drifted from genuine inquiry toward intellectual posturing, and everyone senses it but no one wants to risk the vulnerability of naming it.
