How oppression comes about through people's micro-interactions. 🤷♀️
Seven patterns of dominance:
👑 1. Tolerance.
Allowing small doses of difference (especially those that are of benefit to my own or my company/organization's agenda).
But never enough to cause change to the power relationship.
Diversity, but not equity!1/7

4. Always say less than necessary. When you’re trying to impress people with words, the more you say, the more common you appear, and the less in control. Even if you’re saying something banal, it will seem original if you make it vague, open-ended, and sphinx-like. Powerful people impress and intimidate by saying less. The more you say, the more likely you are to say something foolish.

3. Conceal your intentions. Keep people off balance and in the dark by never revealing the purpose behind your actions. If they have no clue what you’re up to, they cannot prepare a defense. Guide them far enough down the wrong path. Envelope them in enough smoke. And by the time they realise what your intentions are, it will be too late.

Laws of Power:
1. Never outshine the master. Always make those above you feel comfortably superior. Don’t show your talents too much in case you inspire fear and insecurity.
2. Don’t put too much trust in friends, and learn how to use enemies.

4. Quizzing your parents about whether there are ‘problems in the family’ or ‘problems at home’, when you or they have expressed that there are problems at school.
5. Pressurizing you to do things you feel you cannot, such as achieving a higher level of attendance. Sometimes this pressure can even amount to telling you that your family will be subject to fines and sanctions if you don’t attend.
