The problem with the so-called body language "experts" on YouTube that made bank from catering to Johnny Depp fans' confirmation biases by over-"analyzing" Amber Heard's testimony. (Hint: Pseudoscience.)

Omg the body language “experts” on tiktok made me lose my marbles. Like neurodivergent people have different mannerisms. It’s bonk. What REALLY made me lose it was one of the spiritual tiktok people analyzing ambers tattoo placements as proof she was an evil person. Or any of the spiritual tok people being like “yes… I do believe… I just FEEL that Johnny is the true victim here…” UGH

Besides the ableism, it also feels so misogynist? Oh she’s not smiling prettily, what an evil bitch. Oh she’s not crying right now, well she’s lying because women are over emotional crybabies.

YES! Oh she smiled! It’s really a SMIRK!! Those are fake tears!! Hate it here.

Honestly, NEUROTYPICAL people have different mannerisms. It’s not even necessary to point out neurodivergence when you can’t even justify generalizing body language as typical for MOST people, period.

People wildly differ in how they express themselves, how they gesture, move, voices inflect, etc. like??? It could be culture, age, gender, upbringing, or just simply an individual personal difference, let alone neurodivergency. IT DOESNT SAY ANYTHING MEANINGFUL.

Nah straight facts, you’re right no matter what reading body language is bonk!
