There's the violence of punching a guy in the mouth because you don't like his opinions and there's the violence of aggressively ignoring him, even if it means looking out of a window when the person is obviously a big dumb brute who has never been curious about anything outside the room he currently occupies.

This is the most nonchalant way you can get to a destination, a clear signal that you're currently not threatened by anything near you. It's quite a simple and genius way to exert your power during a heated exchange.
