DM: “How do you want to do this?” Player: “ I slice the dragon’s cockles with my long and shiny blade” DM: changes song, plays even more intense battle music Player: “What the-“ DM: “Now it’s time to fight the horde! Roll initiative”

A stretch, yes. But it’s an interesting model for understanding what communication is. By telling you this, I am manipulating you into understanding my point of view and hopefully getting you to agree with me.
It’s important to note that not all manipulation is negative. I should hope parents manipulate their children into being aware of safety.
Even chit-chat could be seen as manipulating each other into “being social” but even I would say that’s a long shot.
