  • Description: Eye squinting happens when the eyelids are compressed together serving to constrict the eyes. It can sometimes occur in just a fraction of a second before disappearing.

    In One Sentence: Narrowing the eyes is due to physical or emotional pain.

    How To Use it: When you do not like what is being said or seen, simply narrow your eyes. This tells others that you do not like what you are seeing or hearing. You may perform this eye language in brief within just fractions of a seconds. While people may not consciously perceive the signal, it will likely still register subconsciously. If the person for whom the cue is intended, notices, they may revisit their proposal and add additional incentives to ease your negative judgment.

    Context: General.

    Verbal Translation: “What I’m seeing is causing me emotional or physical pain and to prevent all that negativity from coming into my body I’m going to squint and block to resist.”

    Variant: See Anger Facial Expression, Hand To Eye Gesture.

    Cue In Action: a) A person will wince when reading objectionable portions of a contract. b) She winced when the student missed the correct note on the piano. It caused her visceral pain.

    Meaning and/or Motivation: An eye blocking form of body language designed to prohibit distasteful images or even thoughts from being received at full view. Narrowing eyes indicates contempt, distaste and anger. A person will not only squint from seeing objectionable sights, but also negative thoughts or sounds.

    Wincing falls into the category of microexpressions since it can happen in only fractions of a second before disappearing, yet it remains full of meaning.


















  • i never said you have to reach out to those who’d have your head on a platter. i am telling you to focus on mutual aid programs.

    community farms, food pantries are a good place to start. find like minded people near you.

    im not telling ya to turn chuds into allies, im telling you to focus on doing what you can for the people around you who want the same thing you do.

    start small, doing things you can do and joining with existing orgs that are doing good work. build from there. that’s what i mean.

    i replied to the superior comment. you don’t get nothin but a slap in yer gobb and a hearty fuck you

    read my and the other’s messages until you understand them.

    You asked a question, created a thread using words that show your ignorance. Now it’s time for you to read those fucking answers.

    Do not make this thread suffer your useless mouth, and dont ever waste people’s time askin questions you think you know the answers to, ya reddit assed dweeb.

    sheesh.


  • I explain all of that to those unfortunate manipulated victims of capitalism and they call me a slur and say I’m jealous.

    You can absolutely blame the people at some point.

    i understand what you mean, but your voice isn’t going to override the professional loudspeakers continuously propagandizing your fellows. right? even if youre the most eloquent and well read person, you don’t have the platform or the power

    so when i touched on moving past electoral politics, i meant it. there is simply no point in casting blame on your fellows, full stop. nobody needs to hear another damn explanation, right? people are sick of *empty explanations.

    if you want to get people to believe in you then focus on what actually matters, and that’s food on the table and safety. community. the first two things make up the second, and they are rapidlydisappearing from our lives. That vacuum will be filled. focus on being a part of the solution going forward instead of working about why we are here, and people will follow you
