Scenario

When community groups become performative instead of connective

Our neighborhood book club started as a way to build community but it's become this weird performance where everyone pretends to have read books they clearly haven't and makes polite conversation about nothing that matters. We're all hungry for real connection but nobody knows how to break the pattern we've created.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A group created for authentic connection has calcified into shallow ritual.
