Been thinking a lot about bravado and how it is used to accumulate power by either embracing or deflecting it. Your approach depends on your class and race.

In white liberal society bravado expressed outwardly is frowned upon because it is not a necessary tool for survival. In my world, if used correctly, bravado can help lift you out of poverty quite literally.
