1/ THREAD: Body Language Analysis No. 4625: Senator Ted Cruz displays contradictory and disrespectful #BodyLanguage while observing #BobDole Lying in State at the Capitol Rotunda. #BodyLanguageExpert
2/ Cruz's head is bowed. And although we cannot see his hands, we can infer their positions. They're configured in a fig leaf/modified fig leaf. While this is a proper head and hand position at a funeral — his feet are spread too far apart.
3/ Cruz's feet should be much closer together — touching or almost touching. His feet are 'at ease', but his feet should 'at attention'. #BodyLanguageExpert
4/ While Cruz's head and his hands are positioned in a deferential and respectful manner — his lower extremities are projecting the opposite: asserting authority, usurping the attention, attempting alpha, and also given this context — sloppy and disrespectful.

1/ THREAD: "We should do away with the absolutely specious notion that everybody has to earn a living. It is a fact today that one in ten thousand of us can make a technological breakthrough capable of supporting all the rest..."
2/ "...The youth of today are absolutely right in recognizing this nonsense of 'earning a living'..."
3/ "...We keep inventing jobs because of this false idea that everybody has to be employed at some kind of drudgery because, according to Malthusian Darwinian theory he must justify his right to exist..."

1/ THREAD: To be clear, Rep. Lauren Boebert did not apologize to Rep. Ilhan Omar. A 'Twitter apology' is NOT an apology. Boebert's was a weak pseudo-apology.
2/ A true apology requires much more. And what Boebert did and said were no simple mistakes — Boebert's acts of malice and racism were deliberate and planned.
3/ Components of a Sincere Apology:

• An apology must always be given by the person who committed the act in question - not by a manager, an attorney, a press secretary - or other surrogates.

1/ THREAD: Gaslighting/Covert Narcissism Breakdown:
Note how Travis McMichael manipulates this scenario/his actions into being your fault — you're getting aggravated — "If I have to talk to — if I talk to you like this, you can't hear me [lowers volume] you can get aggravated..."
2/ His 'improved' scenario is remains hyper-inflammatory, "Excuse me, can you move over there for me", his inflammatory in his words.

"for me" — patronizing, condescending, hyper-authoritative, ego-centric, etc...
3/ His body language (gestured with his right hand/arm with a Dominant Spider) along with a facial expression of amalgam of:

• Anger
• Disgust

1/ THREAD: Body Language Analysis No. 4624: Senator Josh Hawley, No Affection, and Kissing

#BodyLanguage #BodyLanguageExpert #EmotionalIntelligence #JoshHawley #Kissing #Kiss #LowAffection #Affection #ErinHawley
2/ The above image, or cropped portions of it, has been circulated on multiple social media sites the last several days. It shows husband and wife, Josh and Erin Hawley 'kissing' after she spoke at one of his campaign rallies on 31 October 2018 in La Plata, Missouri.
3/  Look at the angle of each of their backs — each angles forward. Their feet, hips, and lower bodies are further apart than their torsos. Leaning into a hug or kiss is a significant signal of low affection.

2/ During a portion of his opening statement today, one of Kyle Rittenhouse's attorneys, Mark Richards, said that one of Rittenhouse's victims (Anthony Huber) was using his skateboard as a weapon, in an effort to attack and decapitate Rittenhouse.
3/ This still image shows Kyle Rittenhouse and his other defense attorney, Corey Chirafisi, during this opening statement. Image

1/ THREAD: What did we see today in Dealey Plaza?

On the surface, it was hundreds of QAnon followers, demonstrating their beliefs that JFKjr (who died in a plane crash in 1999 and was a Democrat) was going to come out of hiding heralding Trump's 'reinstatement' as President.
2/ Of course, Dealey Plaza was where JFK, who was also a Democrat and the 35th President of the United States, was assassinated 58 years ago this month.
3/ Unfortunately this is just the tip of the iceberg.

Truly, without exaggeration, 1/3 of humanity (or more) is susceptible to cult behavior — and today's gathering in Dealey Plaza was a manifestation of that and another similar overlapping phenomenon — mass psychosis.
