"You don’t get what you deserve; you get what you negotiate." 🧵

"What distinguishes #Powertalk is that with every word uttered, the power equation between the two speakers shifts just a little. Sometimes both gain slightly, at the expense of some poor schmuck. Sometimes one yields ground to the other. Powertalk in other words, is a consequential language."

"Normally we'd say that #Columbia University & those #law firms taking in tens or hundreds of millions of dollars annually are powerful. They're #rich, they're highly visible, but in their acquiescence they have proven they are weak rather than strong, that what is supposed to be their power is their accumulation of #privilege they are so afraid to lose they turn out to also be afraid to use. If you can't use it, it's not #power and you're not powerful."

Text from article: What's most striking to me about all this is the question of: what is power? Normally we'd say that Columbia University and those law firms taking in tens or hundreds of millions of dollars annually are powerful. They're rich, they're highly visible, but in their acquiescence they have proven they are weak rather than strong, that what is supposed to be their power is their accumulation of privilege they are so afraid to lose they turn out to also be afraid to use. If you can't use it, it's not power and you're not powerful. Or maybe it's that you can both accumulate power and spend it, and they're afraid to spend it. I think this is often the case with elites – they become hostage to their own privileges, so afraid of losing them they are acquiescent to whatever comes.
