If Arnold is the King of being Alpha, why does Tom Cruise dominate him in this picture?
>Tom looks Arnold right in the eye, Arnold looks away, showing subservience
>Arnold gives Tom his hand in the same way apes show submissiveness to their alpha (look it up)
What's going on here /fit/?
>>34983457
He dominates all
>>34983457
tom cruise looks pretty handsome in that suit desu family.
>>34983457
Hand on shoulder and more imposing physique makes up for having the weaker hand in the ol shake, also he's not looking at the ground nor is he slouching at least for 85 year old man standards or we his age is so I''d say they are pretty even if not a little in favor of Arnold since he went for the ol pat (classic move by him tbqh) and he looks like he is the host of the party welcoming Tom to the crib while he's already on the lookout for the next guest..
Note that I hate Arnold with a passion but here he is the (slight) winner imho.
>>34983494
>a gay man with jillions of dollars and a fantastic plastic surgeon looks good in a suit
nigga call the police this aint right
movies only alpha men understand
>>34983457
No, you're really wrong.
Palm facing down = dominant. Arnold is on the right from his POV which is where politicians always try to be in photos. It gives your arm the downward angle that the other guy can't do anything about. Hand on the shoulder is also dominant.
>>34983457
I remember my autistic phase of looking at bodylanguage to determine who was alpha and beta after reading a book on the subject. Looking at every gesture and social sitation trough that perspective and always trying to be alpha. That some serious insecurity shit right there. If you have low self esteem and shit dont look up that you will just fuck your self up by over analyzing everything and feel as people are trying to dominate you.
Anyways, Arnold is giving a palm down (dominance) while Cruice is the one with a palm up (submissiveness) so you are wrong on that. Arnold also has his hand on Cruice's shoulder which also signifies dominance or being in control. And looking away like that shows how little you care about someone which implies you are of higher status or more importance. To think that Arnold in that situation looked away because he was scared of Cruice's eye contact is silly.
But both of them act extremely dominant and they are aware of the cues and bodylanguage, they are actors and trained in that shit so..
>>34983457
>Tom Cruise dominate him in this picture
>autism: the thread
baka desu senpaitachi
>>34983555
>that the other guy can't do anything about.
Only if he doesn't feel like he's in a position to break the rules. Tom could have put his arm over Arnold's left arm and shoulder just as Arnold offered his right hand or even so early as when Arnold assumed the strategical position like you pointed out, then said something nonchalant without eye contact and smiled for the camera leaving Arnold in a completely beta as fuck position facing Tom without having his gestures reciprocated. Could have cucced him so hard there and cameras wouldn't have cared lmao.

>>34983593
There is nothing autistic about calculated social behavior you clueless working class niggers.
>>34983709
There really is.
>>34983709
Interpreting and projecting body language is something that is developed during childhood.
Needing to read material on how to project/interpret body language indicates poor childhood development.
>>34983518
Lol he's in his 60s and you called him 85
>mow
>>34983770
Sauce?
>>34983518
It's pretty clear he's meeting & presenting Tom Cruise to whoever he is looking at, and is probably about to say some shit like:
"This guy, what can I say about this guy, other than this guy did this and is this".
Arnold does this shit all the time in videos, even to guys who come up to him at Muscle Beach he's always like
" Look at this, look at this abs, look at his lats, the delts, look at it, impressive, you must eat your broccoli ha ha ha "
>>34983457
I'll never understand how you guys don't see how caring SO much about being "alpha" is beta as fuck. No one respects a tryhard.
>>34983485
>posting that gif
>not the real one
>>34983787
Yeah, probably this.Funny technique by the way and so easy to pull off. You just have to be a dick and present people for personal gain/s. Adopted this a long time ago.
>>34983746
There is a huge difference in knee jerk and calculated body language in settings that involve people besides your beta friends and family. Just trust me on this one.
>>34983457
Arnold is 1.88m and Tom is a Turbo Manlet. They almost look like the same height in pic related. Something is not right.
>>34983926
8 inch heels
>>34983818
>No one respects a tryhard.
Only if you come across as a tryhard which is exactly the difference between being a novice and a master at the game. It's why sociopaths win so brutally hard at this shit. Arnold is a grade A sociopath, read biographies on his childhood. In a perfect society he would be slaughtered along with the potential serial killers and pedos and people like me for being a ticking timebomb.
>I'll never understand how you guys don't see how caring SO much about being "alpha" is beta as fuck
Only if you suck at being alpha and you're not about attaining power as much as you are about impressing your friends or girls at the bar. People just lack that machiavellian spirit
>>34983951
> In a perfect society he would be slaughtered along with the potential serial killers and pedos and people like me for being a ticking timebomb.
The edge is real. Jeesus dude stop it. Which biograph do you recommend? And no doubt that Arnold would never have been what he is if it wasn't for his Machiavellian ways
>>34983951
I remember when I read 48 laws of power too.
>>34983457
Your guys are so autistic about everything
>>34983926
>what are heels
DURR HURR HURR HURR HURRRRRRRR
>>34983926
Mr Cruise, high scion of the glorious scientological church of the greater expanses of the known universe, happens to be wearing the latest high-fashion turbo manlet platform shoes.
>>34983457
>Arnold
>6'2
hm...
>6'2'' 5'8''
>>34983945
No way. Any other shots of Tom in pumps?
>>34983926
I've heard conspiracy theories arnolds height is greatly over represented by his marketing people.
for proof look up 1980 mr olympia when they are all standing side by side and he only looks slightly taller than mentzer

>>34983951
What happened in Arnolds childhood that makes you think that he is a sociopath? Stories please!
>>34983968
Not edgy just saying there are a lot of highly functional sick people out there. I have no idea what I read 5 years ago, some type of recollections from former peers I think.
>>34983978
I'm not nearly as invested in this as you think I am. I even agree with the sentiments in your op if it was you because I know what you were actually trying to say. That fucker who tries to one up his friends all the time for no apparent reason. I get it. The thing is you can't make a generalization out of a bad example. There are people who act alpha all around you to great success

>>34984054
was that interviewer actually crying at the end?
kek
>>34984053
Nope.
>>34984112
You are right, it was uncalled for. For some reason I still think people remember me as the anti hero of olden days.
I still hope that I helped you understand, because you said you will never understand.
I'm sorry.

True king of the alphas coming through.
>>34984054
holy fuck wow
>>34983457
The king looks bored with that pretty boy IMO

Males have a lower sense of body language interpretation.

CAN'T BRUISE THE CRUISE
>>34985137
Interesting dude. This video shows a bit of his routine.
https://youtu.be/SpNpcmsGQn4?t=1m59s
>>34984054
People say that he acted like a dick but IMO he was completely justified, that liquid could have been acid or some kind of poison
>>34983457
Arnold barely pays attention to him. This pic could have any irrelevant loser in place of cruise.
>>34984197
>using old hunched up Arnold as proof
Ayyy. Ronnie is 5'11 and Arnold is much taller than him.
>>34985858
Did you read the comments to this video. It's a shitstorm down there.

I don't know why but these stupid heightening shoes always make me think of these.
>>34984197
Conor's got squat shoes on m8
>>34986601
>shoes
>no shoes
arnold was 6'1 tops in his prime and has shrunk a few inches, it's as simple as that.
>>34984147
that's not a 5" difference, i'm 6'0 and look about the same standing next to 5'9 guys
>>34983457
Jesus fucking Christ... Really, /fit/? Really?
>>34983951
>grade A sociopath
you mean is a mild psychopath. yes, so what? almost every successful person is the same and normies will never know because of how effortlessly charming and manipulative they are. you're either born like it or you're not so it's not worth trying to make yourself "alpha" like arnold was because if you don't act like he did already, you never will.
>>34987570
>I can't do simple math

Poor and stupid guy.

closet fag detected, he saved pic of Arnold smoking his pipe, unconsciously wishing it was his pipe.

shit, that made me chuckle like a motherfucker
>>34984054
>hey, hey. no no no... don't run away.
literally the most alpha man on the planet
>>34984054
I believe alphaness is directly correlated to how long you're prepared to shake a Japanese man's hand

>>34985765
Males are more often autistic
>>34988677
Sometimes a pipe is just a pipe you Freudian fraud
>>34983457
Tom Cruise is generally a beta bitch. Don't be deceived by the video title, this behavior is not alpha at all: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ri13wHUvvbs
>Hey, hey c-come back here
>Why would you do that?
>It's i-incredibly rude :(
And in contrast Arnold in a similar situation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zw97LIBGbR4
>>34983457
Tom cruise has dominoes stuffed in the heels of his shoes here. Also, Arnie's hand is over-the-top in the handshake. Most likely the opposite of a fish grip, as well.
>>34983554
I'll concede, as much as I see through the Tom-cat these days I think he peaked on this picture.
>>34983457
Tom Cruise is fucking king of the manlets. He is always kicking ass in his movies, proving manlets will always win.
>>34984147
6'2'' is probably more of a program height. In other words, he's probably a centimter or two over 6'1''.
I'll never put Tom Cruise down. He's already kinda short.
>>34989588
Did you miss how that Cruise video was already posted and everyone was impressed favorably?
--> >>34984054
>>34986601
Ronnie is more like 5'8 I've met him in Vegas. I'm 5'10 and was taller than him
>>34989588
He didn't stutter though? He talked to the guy like a child and made him cry, I think that's pretty alpha.
>>34989918
King of manlets and king of betas
>>34989918
This >>34989588 Is obvously b8 friend no need to worry about it
Ya'll need to understand Tom is a true Alpha. Watch him in almost any interview and take notes how he behaves dude is a legend.
>>34990185
Doing your own movie stunts is also pretty alpha.

wtf? people really think that?
alpha would be he pulls the guy in and licks his face, saying "how does it feel?"
>>34991474
That would not be alpha.
>>34991490
More alpha than stumbling over your words and basically saying "you're a le meany :-("
DESU laughing would be pretty alpha too.
>>34991585
>More alpha
Nah man. The closest alpha thing would be taking the mic and squirting the guy back probs.
>>34983457
Arnie simply doesn't bother too much socializing with manlets.
>>34987561
Cause only retards wear them.
>>34991613
And then everyone would be thinking you'd be ok with these type of pranks. Great thinking mate.
>>34983951
There's a difference between actually having a mental disorders, which sociopathy (aka ASPD, in modern psychiatry) and having traits of it. Nearly everyone will have traits of some mental disorders, and a large amount of successful individuals will have traits similar to those presented in ASPD, without actually impeding their ability to function, or reading any sort of level where it's clinically important.
Also, you're not a sociopath you fucking edgelord, you're a retarded tripfag on 4chan.
>>34988677
Only the most closeted of fags could conjure that reasoning for someone saving a pic of based Arnie smoking, You're gay, bro but that's okay.
Imagine reading the entirety of this thread to a loved one, a friend, a family member in response to their asking what you've been reading lately. Imagine admitting that you let this mental diarrhea seep into your head on a daily basis, without disgust or vitriol but pleasure... could you do that? Are you alpha enough to admit your mind is garbage and the content you feed it made it that way?
