I finally remembered the perfect metaphor for modern western politics someone told me ages ago. The ‘work and shoot’ is what it was, or the cooler sounding; ‘worked shoot’, as in ‘fake fighting’, ‘friendly fighting’, or kayfabe (be fake).

My fun take on that trope is a tad more twisted; it’s a ’lesser worked shoot’, as in ‘photo and shoot’, or photo shoot, or just a photo, and maybe a shoot. I was told once before it’s more of a worked photo chute (ouch).
