When we reflect on the existential and sociocultural implications of the question “Can one ‘not’ communicate?” we are left to conclude that the question itself is not really about communication. It is about the actor’s identity. Communication, in this case, is a vehicle for expression of identity. It is a way of being in the world and of being recognized as such by others. It is a way of being in the world and of being recognized as such by others.

This is not to say that the question “Can one ‘not’ communicate?” is not about communication. It’s just that, in this case, it is not about communication in the sense of “What do I want to say?” or “How can I get what I want?” It is about communication in the sense of “Who am I?” or ”How do I want to be recognized by others?” The question “Can one ‘not’ communicate?” is about identity.
