There’s also some kind of thing about “when is it okay to just have a frame and not particularly try to make space for other frames, and when isn’t it”. I think “in your own blog post” is probably a place where it’s basically fine to just have/present your own frame (ditto for, like, a song); in contrast to a conversation with another person where it’s supposed to be a collaborative thing and instead one person kinda sets the frame. Though I guess there are sometimes blog posts that strike me as excessively stuck in one frame and/or exert pressure to fall in line with that frame—just, the threshold for that is maybe higher than for behavior in conversations.
and/or exert pressure to fall in line with that frame
This line makes me realize I was missing one subcomponent of frame control. We have
Strong frames
Persistent Insistent Frames
Manipulating frames (i.e. tricking people into adopting a new frame)
But then there’s “pressure/threaten someone into adopting a frame”. The line between pressure and “merely expressing confidence” might feel blurry in some cases, but the difference is intended to be “there’s an implication that if you don’t adopt the frame, you will be socially punished”.

Interesting, I was thinking of that as basically in the same category as “persistent insistent frames”!
