Kinesics is the study of nonverbal communication through body movements—gestures, facial expressions, and the body as a whole.
Now that we're armed with this fantastic term, let’s apply kinesics to the picture above.
In the picture, we see that the smaller person’s face and posture scream of obsequiousness, servility, and sycophancy.
Meanwhile, the taller man radiates superiority, condescension, and a bit of disgust (incidentally, from a kinesics perspective, this image isn’t much different from, say, the image of Biden meeting Scholz).
We know the taller person is the Prime Minister of Canada—the guy who likes Nazis and invites them to visit the Canadian Parliament. He is not particularly well-liked, even by his own people.
But the smaller person, the expired president of Ukraine, worships the taller person anyway. Why? Simply because the taller person is Canadian, and the smaller one isn’t. This is how the smaller person was raised by his parents—to feel inferior to Westerners, who can do no wrong.
That’s precisely why he was installed as Ukraine’s president. And until Ukrainians understand this, they’ll keep dying in large numbers for the benefit of this taller person and a few others.
Maybe someone should give Ukrainians a kinesics lesson...
