So that's where it came from. idk. but the cathedral just looks like a society corrupted by some version of authoritarian/communist thinking. And Mondana a version of the monarchies that came before democracies were conceived most recently idk 1600's England. The Greeks and our founding fathers knew a democracy needed a citizenry with virtue to succeed. We have no cultivator of virtue in our society. That used to be the church so now we are ruled by corruption.
think of a group of similarly educated, employed, paid and located folks who work in politics, big corps and their lobbyists and the press. They self support a consensus view if that view keeps them in power, and making bank. They go to the same types of events, kids go to the same types of schools. That's the cathedral.
The woke crap is mostly a smoke screen. They don't really believe it, only mouth platitudes to stay in power.

So it's just the Old Boys Club under a different name?
Larger and more encompassing.
