shivnanigans 

Based on Shivon Roy in HBO's Succession. Shivnanigans are a set of strategies and tactics that mix: fierce Tribalism, corporate power, carefully concealed white privilege, liberal feminism, tricksterism, open power exertion, concern for the victim of sexual assault (see Ep 9 season 2), threats, sticks and/or carrots. Shivnanigans are always carried out in extremely upscale settings while wearing impeccably timely, and never gauche, well-fitting fashion. Its a mixture of friendship and threats and care and coarseness that is only ineffective against the most seasoned opponents.
His shivnanigans made her think she was doing what she wanted, but she was really doing exactly what he wanted.
