Episode #104 - Gene Wars & Jeans Wars Reading the Power Games in Sydney Sweeney’s GQ Moment

Recorded November 7, 2025

Description

I’m updating my philosophy show with an important question: What have I become after spending too much time on the internet? Do we become what we consume online? Today, I will look at Sydney Sweeney’s GQ interview and the debate over American Eagle’s “Great Jeans” campaign, while avoiding team politics. I support liberty and philosophy, not tribalism.

I analyze social interactions that seem friendly but often carry hidden meanings, focusing on concepts such as mirroring, body language, false submission, and leading questions. These interactions can turn into status struggles, which I call “gene wars” and “jeans wars.”

I compare confrontations between men, like boxing, to women’s social strategies, such as framing discussions and emotional traps. For example, an interviewer might move from complimenting someone’s clothing to asking about a controversial ad and then about Trump’s post, while staying on topic and avoiding lengthy political debates.

I will explore how people’s reactions are reflected in body language—crossed legs may signal agreement, while chin and eye positions indicate status. I will also discuss the media’s role in shaping attention through sound bites. Ultimately, understanding these dynamics is key to protecting your reputation when creating content or engaging online.

(00:01) What have I become? What has become to me? If you look into the internet too long, you become the internet. I I I I have decided that I want to reboot my philosophy show, right? And every day I wake up and I’m like, “Get up there. You’re you’re a philosopher. Make your videos.
(00:28) ” And every time I like try to lay something out and do it, I overthink it, I turn it into something that I didn’t want this to be. I wanted this to be very authentic. me talking to people, helping them use philosophy, understanding uh principles and stuff to let me let me adjust this microphone upward so I I sit up straight and people can take me take me seriously instead of being an ogre that slouches into my mic here.
(00:57) Let’s go. I’m going to be watching um a video here and uh I need to I need to be taken seriously. Okay, very this is a very serious very serious discussion. Um, I don’t want to do politics. I don’t want to get into politics. I am I wouldn’t say that I’m anti I wouldn’t say I’m pro politics. No, I would I’m not anti-olitics.
(01:23) I’m just pro liberty and pro philosophy. And politics wants you to like pick a side and dig in. and life is much more uh nuanced than that in in uh you you want to validate concepts and stuff and understand what’s going on. Um but I’m turning on my feed today and people are showing this Sydney Sweeney um interview with GQ, right? And I mean I I forgot all about GQ.
(02:03) I I mean, when I was a kid, when I was a young whippers snapper, we used to walk up hill uh in the snow both ways to get a GQ magazine. And I thought it was dudes in tuxedos. Like, if you ask my my brain to explain to you what GQ was, I was like, uh, it’s a magazine that has dudes and tuxedos on the cover.
(02:32) Um, but I guess it now is um a a TV thing or a video platform too where a woman that kind of looks like uh well I I don’t want to make jokes. I don’t want to make jokes. But she does have kind of a Jim Carrey like internet troll cartoon face. But I don’t want to poison the well here and I don’t want to uh poke fun at people’s looks, but when certain like facial expressions or whatever it do seem like um contrived to me.
(03:10) So if if somebody’s going to purposely do certain expressions with their face uh and be publicly public with them, I do think it’s okay to break that apart. Um, whereas if you’re going out in public and recording somebody who has like a tick or something, then I don’t think that’s okay. If that makes sense. But anyways, uh, I I want to go over here now.
(03:37) Bear with me. It’s my first recording back, but I I haven’t seen this full thing yet. But as I watched some clips on this, I was like, are you really going to is this the video that you’re going to welcome yourself back to my philosophy? What has become of my life? really what has become to my life that I am that I’m going to break down the philosophical aspects and the intricacies of the Sydney Sweeney speaks on the American Eagle ad and her body posit her body transformation and I mean the thing is 19 minutes long
(04:20) I I’m I’m already starting to feel the anxiety here and I don’t want to become a reactionary I don’t want to become somebody who reacts to videos. But I thought this was a um but I thought from the clips that I’ve seen, Sydney Sweeney, women that are watching this, right? Women that are on the the the um that are outside of the feminist box, let’s just say, right? that aren’t 100% in line with the narrative that want to be successful in a community are probably watching this more more than men and just like they’re
(05:06) like because from what I’ve seen she really navigates herself very well within the situation where she’s in her interview and recognizes that this is a trap, that everything that they’re setting up here is an emotional trap. You know, this is this is like when I was watching the clips from this, I was just thinking Tina Fey, um, uh, Amy Polar, Mean Girls, and this is this is basically the the subtext of like a females talking to one another. I’m not saying that it’s wrong.
(05:48) I’m not saying it’s bad. I’m not saying that it’s evil. I’m saying that this is a uh you know, basically with a guy, you go into a ring, right? And you fight one another mono and mono, fist to fist, and like there’s fights and battles and whatever. women are in these emotional social things where she’s, you know, they’re trying to socially elevate themselves or socially destroy one another with uh like manipulation and tricks and she, you know, I mean, so this whole time and I’ll start getting into it a little bit
(06:25) here because I’m already too deep. I’m already How many minutes am I recording here? I don’t even know where to get my record time. Uh, where’s my record time? I’m six minutes in. Six minutes in of a 20 minute video.
(06:45) So, I’m probably going to fast forward through some of these parts, but I want to get some some little parts here just to show you this. So, let’s get this started. Actually, let’s do this in um let’s do this. Let’s do this in premium and let’s do this in a little bit faster speed here. So, okay, without further ado, and I hate when people say that, who I dislike it. Let’s go.
(07:09) But your 13-year-old girl, like, what does fighting give you at that time in your life? The element of surprise. I have not seen yet. Wait, shoes, too, I know. You really We pulled through the shoe game. Strong shoe game. I usually show up in my PJs. For whatever reason, I was like, you know what? I’m going to I’m going to just actually get dressed. And then everyone liked the outfit. I was like, “Wow, this is the first time.” I’m so flattered. Okay,
(07:34) so we’re okay. Well, we’re going. Okay. I feel really lucky to be talking to you right now in particular because you’re a producer with a film with Festival Buzz. Congratulations. How does it feel to have Christie out in the world? Not to be catty. I’m not trying to be caddyy here, but I mean, I can already see right from the beginning, right? This is like a um women are going to hate this. Women are going to hate this and guys are going to be the Sims are going to hate this.
(08:12) But so there’s there’s alphas and betas in the female community, too, for lack of a better word. But right off the bat here, um, whether it’s true or false, like, so they start off with the flattery of each other’s clothes and stuff, but right off the bat, the interviewer is showing some, maybe it’s false, so that Sydney lets her guard down, but she’s showing she’s showing submissiveness.
(08:38) So, watch this really quickly how she’ll lower her shoulders and her eyes as as Sydney Sweenie is sitting up straight or whatever. So flattered. Okay, so we’re good. Okay, well, we’re going. Okay. I feel really lucky to be talking to you right now in particular because you’re a producer with a film with festival buzz. Congratulations.
(08:57) How does it feel to have Christie out in the world that I mean it’s subtle and maybe you don’t realize it, but Sydney’s head is way up. Her shoulders are up like this. And the other girl is like I you know she’s basically doing this like eyes down, shoulders down, eyes down, shoulders down. when she talks and then she’s doing that like Joker’s face.
(09:22) Now, this is probably a manipulation tactic like I’m falsely showing submission to you so that we’re friends. You’re in power here. Just relax. Go with the flow type stuff. But I I don’t think that somebody as attractive as um Sydney Sweeney has made herself to be in Hollywood is going to fall for these types of shenanigans.
(09:46) And I’m not trying to mean girl this up or whatever. I just, you know, this this is to me is just when I watch stuff like this, this is how I’m dissecting it. I’m like, “Okay, we’ve got the start of this conversation here.” They always kind of build up the stars. They’re talking about their clothes. They’re getting a rapport or whatever. They sit down.
(10:08) But this woman here in the left, whether it’s a manipulation tactic or not, is giving the power of the conversation over to Sydney right in the beginning. Christine is one of those projects and stories that like when you’re making it, the crew, the cast, everyone involved, we all knew it was going to be something special. We had Christy with us on set many days.
(10:38) um we would sometimes just like cry because of how powerful the story is and so being able to share that experience with the world and to be able to show Chris. So I want to mention this and I know I’m not a body language expert but you can still pay attention to like people where is it here? Let’s do it again.
(11:05) And so being able to share so a as we look at this scene right they’re together and what you can see here is the woman in the green sweater and I’m sorry that I don’t know her name has her she’s actually wear that’s nice jeans that she’s wearing she has nice jeans she has her legs crossed and and I always wondered like I don’t sit with my legs cross, right? And they’re like, “Man spreading, man spreading, man spreading.
(11:32) ” And this used to be a thing, right? And they always want you to cross your legs. And you see the Gavin Newsome’s and the Adam Freeland’s in a lot of these guys that are like, you know, David Letterman’s and the Johnny Carson’s had their legs spread under the table, so it wasn’t a thing, right? But these new interviewers out in the open like this have their legs crossed.
(11:49) And why this is such a social thing for a lot of people that are emotional is cuz this is a friendly setup right now that when you don’t cross your legs and it’s open, it feels violently to emotional people. Crossing your knee towards somebody like this is a sign of like we’re mirroring one another. We’re together.
(12:14) Um I’m trying to be your friend right now. If a guy was in here like uh Gavin Newsome and Adam Freedelland uh some other people that cross their legs that I can’t think of, they would it’s a sign of the collective to cross your legs so that they’re towards one another. Okay. It’s just a social It’s a social etiquette that I don’t do.
(12:42) You know what I mean? I’m a a I mean, they would probably just label me of as autistic because I’m outside of the boundaries, but for me, comfort’s important. And I would sit with my legs uncrossed and uh and open. Best case scenario, you’ll you’ll find my legs out straight in front of me and I’ll cross them.
(13:02) And I’m not thinking of it consciously, but they will notice pe some people will notice it like this. And if you’re across away from them, it probably does mean subconsciously you’re not into what’s going on. But recognize this body language right here, which is at this point, legs crossed towards one another. So maybe they are friends and maybe she’s not out together.
(13:24) So anyways, experience with the world and to be able to show Christiey’s story to the world is so impactful and I’m beyond honored and proud that we were able to bring the story to life. in the beginning. It’s also really fun. For context, like you’ve got headgear on, you’ve got a mouth guard and you are grinning as you punch people and you look completely unconscious and completely joyful.
(13:44) First of all, was it as much fun as it looked? It was so the again the head down, the head down as she talks, shoulders up, head down, shoulders up, very submissive, g keeping giving Sydney the power. I’m not I’m ignoring kind of what they’re talking about.
(14:07) But then you can also hear she’s got that um it used to be kind of like a valley girl western affectation. But now it’s kind of like a um if you don’t want to dye your hair a particular color, if you don’t want to get tattoos, if you don’t want to get a nose ring, and you still want to show camaraderie to the individuals that are in the world of this collective, you talk like this and everything’s a question at the end. And when I thing like this, and I’m not, like I said, I’m not picking on them.
(14:39) These are like um this is a way when you go out and to navigate the world that people are are are they’re trying to fit in. They’re trying to signal to to one another that they’re safe or they’re in a particular group. And what I’m noticing here is this woman is doing the question mark up and the question mark up. And what she’s mimicking Sydney’s sitting style.
(15:01) I think she’s waiting to see if Sydney’s on her team and Sydney will start doing the up and let’s ask each other question type and it’s okay and I’m shy and I’m submissive. Uh, so that’s what I’m hearing so far. Again, like I guess I sound like, you know, I’m being a caddyy little right here, but I’m trying to explain to you how you can watch these situations without just listening to the words and taking everything on surface value. Watch this is is is people interacting in a battle. You know what I mean? This
(15:35) is a gene war. J E A N S and G E N S. So much fun. I was over the moon. I felt like I finally came to life myself through Christy. We really shaped every single fight to match Christiey’s fights. And so all the different combos you see me doing are the actual I will say just to objectify both these women really quickly.
(16:00) I really like how they did both of the makeup. Uh very calm, very subtle. They both look very nice here. Um, the the interviewer is probably feeling, you know, subconscious subconsciously or consciously a little insecure because everybody hyped. Sydney Sweeney is this, you know, gorgeous uh like bodily n she does nudes and stuff like this pinnacle of beauty right now and she’s next to her.
(16:35) I personally, not to like um you know, eat eat me up in the comments. I think she’s holding their own. I think that they they both look really good and I’m not like looking at them and being like, “Look at this ugly. It’s beautiful.” I’m like, “Oh, here’s two very sweet, kind women entering a conversation to one another.
(16:53) ” And they both have they both have quite a bit of makeup on because they’re on camera, but it’s very subtle attempting to be natural makeup. And I just want to say something positive about that combos from the fights. And I had the best girls to box with because they were down to actually fight and we would do full contact.
(17:16) We were punching each other in the face and so a lot of those reactions are me as Christy, but also me just like couldn’t believe that I actually did it just then. So you have a a background I do. Okay. So tell me about that. You’re what 13? Yeah, I was like 12 13 and I started pick boxing and grappling and I trained at goore highest with sensei jeene label and banj and goore and I did that from 12 13 years old until I was about 19 and then I booked hamme and euphoria and I can’t I can’t fight and film at the same time because I’d come home with bruises.
(17:39) So I put it to the side but I always wanted to find a story that would be I mean maybe I’m just being picky here and I can’t I can’t fight. So, this face to me, I think she’s thinking to herself, I do not give a I cannot wait. I’m about I have some questions that I want to get to cuz I’m going to try to destroy you. I want to be the GQ lady that destroys you.
(18:08) You shall be destroyed, Missy. All right, hold on. Let me get the soundboard here. SW I shall destroy you. I am G2. I I kind of get a feeling that that’s what’s going through her head right now. It could just be boredom, but she doesn’t. To me, this is I’m gonna I’m gonna listen. I asked the question.
(18:46) I don’t really care. I have something big better in mind. I I I’m maybe I’m just projecting, okay? But I don’t think she gives a frig about these answers. I think she’s waiting for bombs. She wants a sound clip and she’s going to get it. Film at the same time cuz I come home with bruises. So, I put it to the side.
(19:05) I always wanted to find a story that would be able to bring that side of myself out. But you’re 13-year-old girl. Like what does fighting give you at that time in your life? The element of surprise. I was the only girl there.
(19:16) So there it was a lot of talk of, oh, what is she doing here? The dads are kind of a little like upset that their sons would be fighting a girl and then I would sometimes win. Okay. So I will say Sydney’s an actress and this woman’s interviewing an actress. They’re very calm. She’s doing a really good job. Her eyes now are up and to uh the right. So she is actually accessing her creative part of the mind and thinking.
(19:36) And so she is actually in the conversation with Sydney at this time. So maybe I was a little bit too harsh with her. It is all lights on you, all cameras. They’re being filmed and they’re they’re doing they’re, you know, they’re being kind back and forth trying to build a little rapport for the audience, but in the end of the day, they are both um actors and actresses to some extent. So, okay, maybe I was a little harsh with the uh the monster the monster voice.
(20:02) Tell me in the comments, ladies and gentlemen. I have the sense that you’re someone who keeps a strong vision between your characters and your personal self. And I just wondered if that is harder when you’ve done this physical transformation for charact like you come home or compared to her children like in her body in some ways.
(20:13) I actually learned so much more about myself throughout the process. And I am someone who I build my book from my character and I learn everything about her life so that I can fully jump in and out.
(20:24) And throughout that process of building Christine and working with Christine and filming the movie, I started realizing I was like, “Oh wow, I actually have more in common with her than I realized. She is fighting a fight in her own life and she’s also fighting a fight in the public.” And I think that for me I find myself in a lot of battles both in front and not I could speed this up any faster about violence and um specifically like phobia and violence and the housemade which I also saw takes on domestic violence from a different genre and then I give you that your American Eagle collection benefited domestic violence charity. Is that right? Okay, here we go. Where American
(20:47) American Eagle charity? So she opens it up with a very softball question. Okay. you spent a lot of this year working around that issue and I just wondered if it meant something to you. It does. I always speak out about something that is important to me and for me to to speak out I use art and I think that through Okay.
(21:11) So, but I will say I have listened to some clips online before I went to watch this, but this is my first time watching it through. This is a little foreshadowing here to the clip that they take out of content. Sydney says right here, let me let’s rewind that again here. I always speak out about something that is important to me. I will always speak out about something that is important to me.
(21:36) Okay, this is well that’s this free freeze frame of Sydney right now. Not great. The internet is gonna going to run with that. Um, but she says, “I always speak out about something that’s important to me.” So, this is foreshadowing to something she’s about to say in a little bit while later when she asks her about a question and she says, “I think that if there’s a topic that’s important to me, I’ll talk about it.” But, okay, let’s continue. And for me to to speak out, I use art.
(22:11) And I think that through my characters and my movies, it’s a way for me to be able to do my part that I can. and spread awareness in in different ways through my characters and um that’s how I’ve always learned to communicate and it is that’s really important.
(22:28) If I look at your IMTV page, okay, I’m thinking about you know you’re on Euphoria which is a show that covers a lot of topics without you know taking a whole stance on any of them and you did reality which I love which like brought a lot of attention and humanity to the story of reality.
(22:39) It was a lower it does not look like a very political career but you have become very swept up in politics and so I wondered if that has surprised you as you put your ideas and yourself into art not commentary. So this is really well done. I will say that the interviewer knows exactly what she’s doing here. Sydney now, this face is like to me this is the face of her saying, “Oh, okay. I get where we are now.” She went from friendly, we’re talking, we’re buddies.
(23:10) The question leads her a little bit towards the ad, then the then her sponsorship. So Sydney’s like, “Oh, okay. She’s talking about the sponsorship.” Now she’s turned the sponsorship American Eagle thing into a political question. And this right here looks like the face of a person that’s like, “Oh, we going to do this? Are we? Let’s do this.
(23:34) ” She looks a little bit like, “Okay, I mean, if we want to do Mean Girls,” she’s like, “I’ve done this before. I I could be just reading into it, but to me, I think when people are sitting there and they think that they’re being friendly with one another and then they can start to see, and I mean, I really respect this.
(23:57) I listen to NPR and they will escalate these questions that make you calm and relaxed. And as they do it, they go higher and higher. And if you don’t recognize it, you can start giving friendly questions to an enemy. Basically, friendly answers to a to an enemy that’s asking questions. I’ve always believed that I’m not here to tell people what to think.
(24:22) I’m just here to kind of open their eyes to different ideas. And so, I think that’s why. Now, I will say at this point, if you see, they are still friendly. She’s she’s listening to her here. They’re looking each other in the eyes. They still got their body language together. So, they’re not being combative at this point.
(24:46) I guess it is just an open question where she’s just asking her and they both still feel comfortable and they’re not uh attacking one another. I’m just here to kind of open their eyes to different ideas. And so I think that’s why I gravitate towards characters and stories that are complicated and are maybe morally questionable and characters that are on the page hard to like then you find the humanity underneath them.
(25:03) And that’s what I’ve always been towards. I think a lot of people feel like it’s better for art if artists can keep themselves a little bit separate from politics. Yeah. I’ve never talked about my personal life. I know. So what I’m going to do is talk about your year as a phenomenon in culture. Okay.
(25:15) And a big thing that happened to you this year is that you ended your engagement and I got push notifications about it and we also looked up and like oh Sydney isn’t just a talented actress and an up andcoming producer. He’s someone that people are really obsessed with and like fascinated by. I know.
(25:26) And I wondered did your sense of fame change this year? No. I surround myself with a really really strong group of people who have been in my life since I was little and they take me out of Hollywood. They take me out of this bubble and remind me what the real world is and that’s why I exist. The idea of fame it doesn’t apply to my personal life. You can’t feel the difference in the volume at times. If I turn on my phone. Yes.
(25:43) If I have my phone off, I’m home. No. Right. Okay. So, what is it like now being single? Are you single? Single. You were out there now as a person who has a power. I would say person who obsessment and someone who like really focus on their work. So I wonder how does that change what you’re looking for? I don’t think I’m looking for a man right now.
(26:00) What I’ve learned this year is that I have a really really amazing group of girlfriends and I am strong and independent and that I’m going to be okay if love finds me. Love finds me. I’m holding you but uh I’m not the type of person that wants to go all the time and I do believe in true love. So I’m not going to jump around it. So I’m sorry. I’m sorry. That’s a good freeze frame though. Like it just gives me Jim Carrey. She the face looks like the troll right now, right? I mean, is that aderall jaw? I’m sorry.
(26:26) Like, I’m not trying to make fun of this woman, but the the this is not to me. This is not normal way that like people like look, she’s got the shoulders out and she’s got the jaw going. You can’t see my jaw. It it it looks like the the internet troll meme. Uh whatever. But anyways, she she turned up the heat on the politics.
(26:50) Sydney dodged it. So, she came back to uh a question about the relationship and stuff. And then Sydney’s like, “Well, I don’t talk about my relationships.” But now it’s back to like, “Hey, girlfriend. You’re we were I got the notification on my phone cuz I follow you. Like, I’m hip on Sydney Sweeney.” Whether or not she got the the notification, well, she’s pretty much trying to say like, “I’m a fan.
(27:16) I follow you. I got the notification on my phone that you uh whatever. And but it could just be like somebody on Instagram posted it and that’s the notification or whatever. But this I mean phrase frame this, make a clip. I mean, I’m trying I’m not trying to make fun of this lady, but objectively does this not look like the troll meme face or whatever with the teeth? It’s the jaw movement of somebody who’s on aderall as far as I’m concerned. Um, so I’m probably wrong.
(27:50) And again, I’m not trying to like whatever, but this is uh she looks devious here. She doesn’t look like somebody that’s looking at the person that they’re interviewing thinking, I want good things for you, right? I mean, maybe maybe she does, but if this person was looking at you in with this facial structure, right? and this movement, would you think to yourself, “Wow, this person has got my best interest in mind.
(28:21) ” It kind of looks like a little, you know, I don’t know, it looks devious to me. Um, okay. So, you are making you and sort of republic almost with sort of let and we all know that was a production on our part that wasn’t real, but it me that’s goes viral if you’re not a private person and I never personally but also benefits to being private personally.
(28:38) The professional benefits for me I mean private is from I don’t have time myself and I am just a 27y old figure it out and I’m still learning and I’m making mistakes I’m going to grow and I think that it’s important to be able to do that without having to say every single day all the time right so I am noticing so this must have been recorded a while ago I’m just noticing this now because sorry I’m gonna open up let’s let’s do that I don’t want to I don’t want to freeze frame and make them look like whatever when you’re freeze
(29:05) framing it or whatever. So, this is a good picture of Sweenie Sydney. Her hair is still long here and she’s cut she’s since cut her hair short. I was just thinking about that. So, this must have been in the can and recorded uh months ago and just released now. Um, so this is old news. Am I getting old news here? Yeah.
(29:34) So, this was released three days ago, but this had to be recorded a while back because didn’t Sydney have that short hair thing recently that went viral. So, anyways, this is really like stop. No, that’s my girlfriend. But other than that, no. No. Okay. I know who I am, right? I know what I value. I know that I’m a kind person. I know that I love a lot. And I know that I’m just excited to see what happens next. And so, I don’t know why people find who I am. We’re talking around.
(29:59) I’m not going to even address that’s a whole different video. I don’t want to get into uh beautiful women with options calling off engagements here. But it is kind of crazy that the this I mean she’s in Hollywood and stuff and who knows what happened, but it is kind of crazy for young girls to see her call off a like engagement or whatever.
(30:33) And now I saw this morning and this came out kind of right at the right time. She’s with uh Justin Beaver’s old producer in the guy that stole all the money from uh that owns all the old Taylor Swift songs or whatever. Uh so this is maybe they released it. I don’t know. We won’t get into that. We should talk about it. So recent I mean the reaction definitely was surprised but it was I love jeans.
(30:57) I wear jeans. Okay. So this is what I want to get to. This is what I was looking for. So let me slow this down. Let me slow this down. We’re sort of talking around this American Eagle ad right now and maybe we should just talk about it. So they weren’t talking around this American Eve glad. Now that was like three questions ago. All right.
(31:26) So that’s very telling that she started it off like that because she’s basically saying, “I want to ask you about the ad, but I’m waiting for you to loosen up before I ask you this question.” Because they only She asked one question about it. So were you surprised by the reaction? I did a gene ad. Sydney takes a second to to the thing.
(31:56) She says it and then this is her face basically like, “Okay, it’s time to play.” Uh, she’s going to give me short answers and she’s going to shut down and I got to get the clip here. I mean, the real and then her face is the next question. like, “Come on, give me more than that.” And so Sydney’s like, “Okay, we’ll play this game.
(32:20) ” But Sydney is she’s looking up and to the left, right? Or let me see. Up and to the left. So she’s looking up to the left. She’s actually has thought about this before. If she’s looking up to the left, up and to the right, she’s coming up with stuff. So she’s acting right now. Good for her.
(32:44) So, she has planned that she was going to get attacked and she’s thought about this in the past and she’s accessing that her plans. Auction definitely was a surprise, but it was I I love jeans. All I wear are jeans. I’m literally in jeans with a t-shirt like every day of my life. Jeans are uncontroversial. Jeans are awesome. You look great in your jeans. I think I know how you’re going to answer this, but I’m gonna ask anyway.
(33:02) I mean, the president tweeted about the jeans ad or truth social about the jeans ad and that just seems to me uh like a very crazy moment for anyone and I wondered. Okay, so this is really good priming here. Okay, this is what I wanted to kind of get into and not all women are like this. Not all people are like this and it is an interview environment. So, she’s trying to be a GQ journalist here.
(33:27) She’s priming right now and she’s doing a really good job of it. I don’t think Sydney’s gonna fall for it. I know that she doesn’t because I’ve watched the this clip already. But the excitement that’s getting into her face right now is is very telling, but she’s priming her saying like, what were the exact words? I think you know, I think I know how you’re going to answer.
(33:51) Meaning like don’t worry, don’t overthink it. We all know the answer, right? And then, but I’m going to ask it anyways. He tweeted about you. It just seems to me it’s a very crazy moment for anybody. Like, don’t worry about it. If you think it’s crazy, just say your crazy things. Anybody would feel She’s basically saying like, I would feel like that.
(34:16) The audience would feel like that, whatever. But what she’s actually trying to do is back Sydney into a corner where they take it out of content and then make it sound like Cydney’s the only one that would say this. All right. And I don’t think Sydney is going to fall for it. I know she doesn’t moment for anyone.
(34:34) And I wondered what that was like. It was real. It was real. And it would be totally human. Uh so here we go again. It would be totally human. I would probably feel like that. Right. So now she’s saying, “Look, this would be totally human.
(34:55) I would probably even feel like this if I was in your shoes, but and again, I don’t want to pause it when like I’m not trying to make fun of these pauses. It would be It was surreal.” She’s like, “It would be totally human. I would probably feel in this particular way if this happened to me.” So she’s priming it again to make her feel relaxed to say, “Just say it. Just say the line. I need you to say for the clip, baby.
(35:20) Can I get it out of her? And spoiler alert, she’s not going to get it out of her. It was real. And it would be totally human. Uh I would probably feel like thankful that somebody had my back in public, you know, and conveniently some very powerful people had my back in public. And I wondered if if you felt that way.
(35:40) So now she’s looking up from the distance. She’s thinking again. And so she did pause for a second to think about her response, which is good, but she’s this is a setup, you know. I mean, this is setup. She’s like, “Look, the president tweeted about it. If some, you know, if if I was in this situation, I would want powerful people. I think we can all feel that way. Just say it.
(36:01) ” Here I go. Just say it, Sydney. You know you want to say it. align yourself with Trump so I can get my clip. And again, maybe she’s not thinking that, but I got a feeling that this is, you know, this is a setup here. I don’t think I don’t think that it’s not that that feeling didn’t okay now this question is political right and this question is I would feel this way would this but look at the body language change so has her knee towards her still she’s closed Sydney off she has now switched legs Right now, it could be a discomfort
(36:55) thing. She might have had her legs crossed for so long, so she decided to switch them to the other side. But remember, I brought this up earlier. They’re crossed towards one another. We’re together. We’re I’m I’m reflecting you. Let’s mirroring you. Now, she’s like, she’s away from her. So, as soon as these political questions have come out where it’s starting to get a little bit hard when she’s like trying to attack her and get that clip, those legs are crossed away from her.
(37:25) You’re going to call me crazy. I know you’re going to call me crazy, but there’s going to be women in the comments. There’s going to be people that understand this that are going to start seeing the world a little bit better like this, right? You can do this in your everyday life, too.
(37:44) But like when you’re watching a video like this, right, and you’re you’re you’re you’re thinking, “Oh, these are two people sitting down.” These are not two people sitting down, right? Men get into a boxing ring and fight one another or get into a debate thing with suits and scream each other. This is two females battling each other for social uh placement.
(38:07) It it doesn’t look violent, but this is a gene war right here. Okay. This is a gene war. G S uh war uh between battling female factions. But I wasn’t thinking of it like that of any of it. I kind of just put my phone away. I was filming every day. I’m filming it for you. So, I’m working like Very good answer.
(38:33) Basically, Senique, if you missed that, said, “I wasn’t even thinking about the the president. Why would I think about that? I have my own life. I’m working 16 hours a day without my phone on Euphoria.” 16 hour days. And it it’s crazy. I mean, maybe this is a smile of got it. She literally turned a got true question into an advertisement for the show that she’s on called Euphoria.
(38:56) I mean, this is probably why she’s becoming rich and famous and getting new gigs is they tried to get her with a gotcha question and she turned it into a plug for her TV show. It’s like, you know what? Good on her. I don’t really bring my phone on set, so I work and then I go home and I go to sleep. So, I don’t really I don’t really see a lot of it.
(39:22) You’ve made a really good case for keeping your thoughts and your life separate from that work. But the risk is that you know there’s a chance that somebody will get some idea about what you think. Now remember like I said the battle is on now. The legs are are she’s turned away from Sydney. Sydney is still out and her now her demeanor has also changed. She’s perked up a little bit. She’s not doing the little shy forehead.
(39:45) She doesn’t have the forehead wrinkles. The little shy shoulders down submissive. She’s up. She’s ready. She’s ready to do a social battle here. Now, this is a diff change in her personality. She’s crossed her leg away. She’s up. She’s ready to She’s ready to to come in think about certain issues and feel like I don’t want to see Christie because of that.
(40:07) Like, do you worry about that? No. No. If somebody if somebody Okay, maybe not. She went back to a little bit submissive when she’s listening to the question. Um, but she basically asked her like, “Are you are you worried that your political views are going to like make other people think a certain way?” And it’s like, “Hey lady, beat it.
(40:30) ” Right? I’m just trying to be myself and do these things. You keep trying to pull me into to politics. I guess something they read online to a powerful story like Christie. Then I hope that and then again, I hope something else can open their eyes. She does a really good job. She brings it back to an advertisement for the movie that she’s going to be in.
(40:54) So, and yeah, all right. I I I can’t do any more of this. So, if there’s any more of this, if there’s any more of this, then good good on her. I just want to say when you’re watching videos like this, right, when you’re watching interactions between two individuals like this, right? And I’m not trying to turn this into like a cat fight or whatever.
(41:18) I’m trying to turn this into an understanding that we are just bipedal I bipedal uh apes, right? We’re just we’re just evolved animals that still have these same type of social structures in our life and we don’t recognize that. You know, we like to pretend that we’re not no longer evolving or have evolved past that or we’re civilized or whatever. There is gene wars going on every day and some of them look like bombs and fights and and invasions and stuff and other ones look like this. It’s social uh pressure and attacks or whatever.
(41:51) So, uh let me know what you think in the comments. I’m I don’t know if I’m going to do videos like this anymore. I don’t know what I’m going to do for videos, but today I just tuned on. I said I need to make content and this is it. So, check out the link. Uh follow me on everything. I got a link tree here for subscriber whatever. I don’t know what I’m going to do. Okay, take it easy.
