According to pickup artists and masculine guys like Andrew Taint, you shouldn’t put more into a conversation than the other person because that’s submissive. 2/3 rule, they say. For every 3 words they use, you use 2. It supposedly makes you seem aloof and indifferent.

So when Taint shows off is his big boy cars and asks for Greta’s email, he’s put himself in the submissive beta role begging for attention, asking for a response, in a long winded tweet.

She responds with alpha energy: textbook example of agree and amplify, uses only a single sentence, doesn’t explain herself or get offended, all without bothering with punctuation. Greta’s the true alpha here.

Then Taint has to make a video to go on the record and explain himself, because he lost frame. More submissive energy. Just who is he trying to impress?

Andrew Taint is a beta to Greta Thunberg.
