Mute
Your ability to stop responding, even when provoked. Not about listening, but choosing silence as a control.
Paul Robeson and the Communist Persecution
Mute controls your ability to stop responding even when provoked. Paul Robeson demonstrated perfect control of this setting during his congressional testimony. Instead of getting drawn into their provocations or trying to justify his beliefs to hostile questioners, he chose strategic silence on some topics while speaking powerfully on others. He refused to give them the emotional reaction they wanted, maintaining his dignity through selective non-response.
