Want to come to the free town square ? Gotta show ID first to the guard at the wall

(the guard will also sell you a loudspeaker and an "official" badge for a modest fee)

& the town square forces you to listen to famous gossippers and dumb popular people you've never heard of

... and so many people shilling scams as hard as they possibly can.

And you realize it isn’t the town square, but just the local ketamine heads backyard club.
