Body Language Analyst REACTS to Tana Mongeau's AGGRESSIVE Apology Video | Faces Episode 14

hey idiots welcome back to observe this video has been made possible by the people that support me over at patreon literally you paid for my time to be able to make this video if you would like to be able to support me in that way as well just follow the link in the description below i have a few things that i'm able to give you as patrons exclusive access to backgrounds some early content access to my book so on and so forth but a new thing that i'm adding to that that i feel like i just need for my own personal self is in order to be able to be submitted into the just deduce it or cold reading or to truth in a lie series you have to be a patron the only reason that i'm doing that is because i'm literally getting so many entries that i i can't keep up today i'm going to be talking about tana mongoo i think that's how you say her name tana's most recent apology video and we're going to go ahead and approach it non-verbally [Music] all right so for those of you who don't know who tana is join the club i'm not really familiar with her beyond that i know she created tanacon and that she's responsible for its incredible failure and what effect that had in her subscriber base so she made an apology video that is literally titled a long overdue apology apparently this has been a long time coming now i want to go ahead and stress right off the bat for those of you that are new here or new to the study of nonverbal communication there's a couple things that you need to know one it is at best 70 accurate that means that there's always room for misinterpretation of nonverbal cues two a person's non-verbal communication is more or less unique to them in its finer details there are general broad expressions and body language tells that are universal but everybody is different in some way or another so in order to be able to continue on this i'm going to be relying largely on those generalities and then also whatever baseline i can pull off of what she's saying and a baseline is a person's non-verbal state when they are not stressed and when they are at rest or at ease so when i establish that that will help me understand tana a little bit better let's go ahead and begin first and foremost i want to apologize for how long this video has taken there is no excuse reason or thing i could say to make that okay and i won't okay i'm sorry interrupted her right in the middle of this because of something pretty big right off the bat and this has nothing really to do with her non-verbal communication this isn't body language yet but her setting is once again in all white which is a theme that we saw in the stoppers video and psychologists assumed that the stouffers took that approach to be able to seem more pure and innocent and one might be able to assume that same with tana not necessarily but it's an interesting thing nonetheless along with that why is she yelling like why why is she so aggressive with this apology it sounds like she's giving an address to a group of people that she doesn't want to be addressing quite literally as if she's up on stage it sounds like she's really really projecting and i don't think that's necessary those are just some things that i see right off the bat obviously these are just observations they're nothing really to sway what i feel her heart is behind it let's go ahead and keep going take full accountability for that however i understand that my actions even over the past few weeks have not been hand in hand with accountability and that's a journey that i'm beginning with this video i also understand what the white privilege that i possess i have no right to ask oh my gosh so there are already so many cuts she's pulling a shane dawson on this now she's already copied the stoffers and shane dawson on this why are you having so many cuts what are you editing out what could you possibly be editing out okay so for those of you who aren't editors video editors or or involved in the media when you see cuts like that there's often a reason for something to be taken out now that could be breaths that could be um's or us that could be things that were said that you might not actually mean what you said so you take it out or you're worried about saying something that's wrong or empty pauses in an apology video it's supposed to be a very just like down to earth personal kind of video so you don't want to see 2 billion in 3 cuts however she's already got 2 billion in 3 cuts and it's been approximately 17 seconds into her video so that's not good news as far as her being genuine to us now along with that the issue is is when you're trying to read a person's non-verbal communication when you're trying to read their body language it's easier if you could just sit and watch them and not have a cut every two seconds if not less interrupting your visual interrupting your established baseline that you may or may not have so this is going to be difficult to establish her baseline but let's see if there's anything that we can actually still pull from it but i'm aware that making this video about my emotions would do nothing but be another selfish and careless action and further the problem i want to apologize okay so that's important that she acknowledges that that's her reason for not having a lot of emotion behind this which isn't good news for me i need to be able to have a person emoting in a situation to be able to understand if they're more likely to be genuine or not if they're more likely to be feeling what they're saying or not and since she's consciously saying i'm really trying to keep my emotions out of this that's going to make it difficult for a nonverbal analyst but along with that why is she keeping her emotions out of it if she's genuinely sorry i think it would come across better if she showed that she was genuinely sorry with her words and with her nonverbal communication but so we already know that she's not going to try to communicate with her nonverbal communication and she's also just whatever let's go it's from the bottom of my heart for being such a big part of cancelled culture for the entirety of my career i don't deserve a platform if i continue to act in such a gaslighting and irresponsible manner and i'm so sorry she's so aggressive it's so aggressive why are you so aggressive this dude why are you so aggressive at it and maybe this is like anger turned out herself perhaps but it just sounds like she's like giving a really intense lecture about something instead of apologizing that tone baseline that she's established in here is something that i don't really appreciate but that could just be my own personal opinion so let's just keep watching and we'll see if there's any indicators any positive or negative spikes in her nonverbal baseline to be able to indicate that there might be some possible deceit or at least nonverbal misalignment for how long i've done that i could sit here and blame it on the people i watched or the people that raised me or the advice that i chose to take but at the end she flashed a disgust expression in there very very light well after she did the quotations she's referring to things in her past and it's likely that that disgust is towards herself during those situations that would be one interpretation of it or she's actually having disgust for her people that raised her one of the two regardless she's feeling disgust in this moment the day i chose to take those paths i chose to only listen to yes people i chose to idolize people that taught me the complete wrong way to handle the responsibility of this platform and it breaks my heart that it took me getting to 22 years old to realize that with that being said i want to express my utter disgust with every single apology video i've ever made i'm sorry for uploading them i'm sorry for defending them and i'm sorry for putting them out to such a huge audience i did nothing so if i was just listening to her words those are the perfect words to be able to say now her nonverbal communication once again is difficult to establish because there's so many goddamn cuts just stop cutting your footage but if her body language is true from what i'm seeing from the heavily edited video that i'm seeing she's giving a lot of affirmative and synchronized gestures with her head a lot of nodding of reinforcement of what her words are saying it's all synchronized to where there's not any misalignments between gestures and words so it's flowing which usually is an indicator of authenticity but it doesn't necessarily mean that it is for those of you watching in case you haven't noticed reading body language while there is a lot of psychological science behind it is absolutely more of an art than a science you have to do it a lot to be able to get good at it and it's not a mathematical equation there are areas that are but not everywhere there's a good chance that she's being authentic and genuine in this part of it but there's always the chance that she's not let's go but look at apology videos as people digging up my past again if i'd spent the time i spent pandering deflecting making excuses and spewing ignorance to millions of people becoming a better person i would be in a far far better place right now and for that i can only hold myself accountable it is far past the time i needed to own up to my behavior and take 100 accountability that phrasing that's interesting i'm beginning to suspect that she's teleprompting this apology that might be part of what all the pauses are is her collecting as she's reading for this kind of deal i don't know that i would have scripted it i think she is because of this phrasing that she just had here it is far past the time i needed to is not how most people talk and i doubt i doubt it's how she talks it's a very elegant and formal way of wording things so i think this is probably scripted you're more likely to write this out and then say it than you are to just speak it normally some people speak that way and that's fair i don't think tana is one of them let's keep watching for my actions and if i had wanted people to see that i'd truly groan you'd think that my actions would have been in unison with that thought before this moment i want you to know i'm aware of that and i am so sorry for how much of a coward i have acted like that it's inexcusable it's completely completely inexcusable one thing i've learned over this time is the undeniable responsibility that goes hand in hand with a platform of this size i am so sorry for everything that i could possess all that i have without acknowledging the extreme responsibility that comes with it i had everything she keeps saying i'm so sorry but it doesn't reflect on her face once again she said in her video that she's not going to put her emotions into this which like i said i understand but it makes it come across as disingenuous and apparently she has a history of putting out apology videos and not holding to them or not taking correct accountability in those apologies for the things that she's done and not showing changes thereafter for me as a non-verbal analyst i wouldn't necessarily take this apology to heart because she's not taking it to heart but let's keep watching i don't want to be the reason that a young girl grows up the way i did what would have been vital at that time was to look inside to ask myself why people were angry at me go to the root of the problem and find out why i was acting like that and then educate myself that's what someone deserving of a platform of my size would have done the only goal i was taught that i actually internalized was that when i was in the wrong i needed to make people like me again versus what i could do to become a person that people actually like honestly her words are spot on she's saying the things she needs to say she's not trying to shove off anything on anybody else this is all very good verbally maybe it's because it was typed up beforehand and she had a lot of chances or maybe even people to edit it to make it so but her words are so good her body language is not so good so far there has been nothing there's just nothing on her emotive states that are at all showing up on her body language and it's frustrating that that's she's trying to do that it's just frustrating for me so clearly now the microaggressions and terrible values that i was enveloped in for 15 years of my life i see so clearly now the problem with the things i grew up thinking were funny and the sense of humor i developed i now realize that the content i put out into the world and who i am has the ability to aid in either positively or negatively shaping this generation but with all of that being said there is no excuse for the amount of time it took me when i had every single resource in the world to become a better person in the last three years i have people like colin barry specifically call me out and try to open my eyes and make me better but i was so stuck in my narcissistic egotistical ways that i was convinced i was a good person and had nothing to learn and to anyone who tried to help me during that time and i chose to look the other way i'm sorry especially colin barry i am so sorry you truthfully tried and you i am so sorry that's an instance of possible nonverbal misalignment a lot of people will say that the i am so sorry coupled with the shaking of the head it's a positive action i am you are doing something while shaking your head no that's the nonverbal misalignment now that is not necessarily true to be fully honest there are plenty of instances where your head will kind of move around as you talk and it means nothing it actually means nothing at all but there can be instances of that being a non-verbal misalignment maybe that is maybe that isn't it's something that i'm keeping in mind at very least if she were to be interviewed by me or if i were asking her a series of questions this would be a red flag that i would just keep tucked away put it in my belt so to speak just keep my eye on it let's go then i would proceed to spend the next three years in such an unproductive cycle wondering why these things kept getting brought up but how could i expect anyone to forgive me in general if my apology wasn't even a sufficient apology i selfishly decided time and time again i do not need education and for that i'm so sorry clearly even based on my actions once again there she said i am so sorry this is twice now that she has said a positive thing while shaking her head no almost as if she's non-verbally contradicting herself that she is so sorry about something and yes you can try this yourself i am so sorry that might just be how your head naturally goes i know for me it is likely to go that way so i'm not really holding much weight to these misalignments these possible misalignments but i am keeping track of them if they continue and continue and continue and line up with some other ones there's a high possibility of deceit but as of right now there's only been a couple so we're not too worried about it let's keep watching the past few months i have so much more growing to do and i understand anyone who is fed up and tired sick of it and doesn't want to be around for that but a person of color done one okay so there we see nonverbal alignment where that entire time through positive and negative times her head was constantly shaking no so maybe that's just what she does with her baseline i'm going to keep that in mind but at the end she says a negative and she shakes her head no whereas before she's saying positives and shaking her head no let's keep watching you cannot cover up years of damage and being a hurtful person with a cardboard sign and a [ __ ] twitter name and again the fact that it took me this moment in time to realize that is so sad what was going on in the background there was something going on in the background that just shut off that has nothing to do with her i'm sorry that has nothing to do with any of this read she's saying the exact correct words but we can see that she's not non-verbally meaning it or at least displaying a way that she's not so let's keep watching to take this long to make so many people feel heard while thinking i was doing my justice by posting about black lives matter or briana taylor was performative activism completely and for that i am so sorry i know where my morals lie but i know that my actions have not coincided with them i want to be the best ally interesting so she said for that i am so sorry so we know that she says it that way as well now it becomes like a numbers game does she say it more i am so sorry or i am so sorry and if so which one's a lie and which one's not this she might actually be sorry for this instance would make more sense because generalities of nonverbal communication says that when you say something like that you would nod in affirmation not shake your head in counteracting it so let's keep watching now activist and friend i can possibly be a role model but acting like this has been the exact opposite of that i can never even fully resonate with the pain and anger people must have felt seeing that i have always only judged people based on is she like tumble drying gravel in the background what is that if any of you are regular watchers of tana and know what the jet engine or clothes dryer full of gravel is in the background let me know because it's it's a little excessive next i want to address the colin barry and simpliness of situations once again the amount of time this is taken is completely inexcusable and i take full accountability for that i left okay so now we're at two and two completely inexcusable i take full accountability for that that's all affirming gestures with the words that are being said so now we're at two and two and if we're using once again the generalities of nonverbal communication it's showing that this is not in her baseline this is a spike and she's shaking her head while saying something affirmative it's likely nonverbal misalignment which likely means that she's not agreeing with what she's saying which likely means that it's not true let's keep watching the way that i must have hurt him with my actions time and time again is so incredibly microaggressive and that is not a person that i ever want to be even looking back and accepting that truth that this person perceived my actions as microaggressively racist makes me [ __ ] sick because that is someone i never want to be but in order to say that and have anyone ever believe me so she's saying that says somebody that she doesn't want to be it's somebody she is and has been from what i've understood but she's saying that it's something that she doesn't want to be she's flashing these disgust and almost anger expressions while saying so it's all a negative emotion and non-verbal strand that's happening there which is encouraging for truthfulness and authenticity let's keep watching it's so sad that i could never say that i was so unafraid to use racial terminology but i was so afraid of people calling me a racist i had so many chances to say all of this before right now when it comes to the nested situation once again very affirmative movements with her head she's consistently squinting which usually is centered around anger disgust those sorts of emotions and that's appropriate for her perhaps in relation to herself and her previous actions and i think that's what she's directing her disgust and anger towards is her past self but once again that's kind of the only emotion we've gotten this entire time without any vulnerability anywhere intermixed so let's just keep watching regardless i need to be a good example to my followers and if this person is accusing me of microaggression i need to hold myself fully accountable and apologize for ever making her feel that way and let you know that i'm not going to act in that manner in any way for the entirety of my life but at the same time if for some reason okay so when she's saying that she's not going to do something she's shaking her head that's good it's a no-no sort of situation it's synchronized that's usually an indicator of authenticity and we now know that tana does have that tendency as she's saying positive things she'll nod and as she's saying negative things she'll shake her head which means that if we see something that's not that there's a possibility of it being actual deceitful misalignment so this is this this was kind of the process of establishing a non-verbal baseline for tana and we'll just go ahead and keep that in mind now as we keep watching when it comes to the anecdotal drama of both of those situations i will answer any further questions with full accountability and receipts in any upcoming ways that you would like me to lastly i want to apologize to each and every one of my fans for letting you down people have really been referencing this there's a lot of partial head shaking and during this she's speaking with a lot of confidence but i'm not totally buying it just because of the the baseline that we've established that doesn't seem totally genuine to me so if i were a person who was subscribed to her or following her in any way i would just be aware of that and be wary of this statement let's keep watching when i think about a single one of my young fans growing up or acting in the ways that i did it makes me sick i am so sorry for thinking for so long that i never just watch her head it's an indicator of whether or not she's being honest or not a fairly solid one obviously there's a margin for error keep that in mind watch for that nonverbal misalignment between her head and what she's saying and you'll get a fairly good peg as to where her honesty lies that's good let's keep watching never had to be a role model i promise you for the entirety of my career i will take that into account with every single piece of content i choose to further make i want to make a difference in a way that is positive and impactful not performative and disruptive at the same time i fully understand the people that have stopped their journey with me or stopping here but for me this is just a new chapter of my journey with myself and becoming a better person i still have to look in the mirror and i want to see someone i'm proud of looking back at me this is my last apology video ever and i am so sorry for this last apology video ever i'm so sorry i don't know i don't know tana your body language is saying that you're lying or at least possibly lying i don't know i don't know that this is going to be the last apology ever or if it should be the last apology ever there's also that possibility that she might need to apologize again later oh let's keep watching [ __ ] hell i've put you through with these over the past few years if i'm called out for something i will be unashamed of my mistake and hold myself accountable right then and there i will strip my ego and i will apologize i will actually mend the problem versus continuing to shove it down further i don't care if i'm starting every vlog with what i did wrong in the last one and how i'm going to be better in the future once that makes sense that's why she wasn't having confidence in it because she's gonna have plenty of apology videos in the future but i i see now that she's saying that she's not gonna have dedicated apology videos let's keep going i'm starting this chapter by donating to the charities that are listed on the screen and linked below going out and registering to vote and voting for joe biden and encouraging each and every one of you if you are able to be a part of the change that is so desperately needed in america right now didn't expect this to take a political change real quick here just so you know i don't do politics here on the channel because they get very very messy people get way too heated and i'm just not interested in spurning that in any way let's keep watching hers though and i want to use my voice and platform to let every single one of you know that if you are watching this that you have a choice to help our future be better and i want to start by doing that thank you for watching okay wow that wrapped up fast she yelled at us for like 15 minutes and then she was done alright so final synopsis of tana's apology video areas of it i do believe she meant which is good and we saw a very solid tell as to where her honesty and deceit lie and the synchronization between her emotions and words and the way they display in her body language so that's that's good that's good to be able to establish such a solid reliable tell i don't believe that this is the last we'll see of any perhaps drama from tana and if you are receiving an apology from somebody and they're speaking like this to you they're likely not being genuine so just keep your eye out for that sort of trend i hope you enjoyed this video if you do like these videos i'm
