I (a person who is not in a creative industry and who has zero public profile) have been thinking a lot about how power can really sneak up on you in a way that it is sort of invisible until you stop and think about yourself from an outside point of view. https://twitter.com/seananmcguire/status/1276208718921650176
This is a good thread from a smart person that touches on that.
To be clear I don't for a moment think "ooops they didn't realize how much power they had in that situation" is remotely relevant to most of what's being talked about in SF/F and Comics
But on like, an everyday basis, I think this is something that people, particularly people in nerd circles who may not have been regularly part of large social groups till they are older teenagers or young adults, don't understand as well as some people do.
