Political brutalism is not only about visible violence. It is embedded in policies, narratives, and alliances that normalize inequality and justify asymmetrical power relations.

What we are witnessing today is not merely a conflict, but a reflection of global power structures. It reveals how authority operates, legitimizes itself, and sustains dominance across geopolitical landscapes.
