It's kinda silly how these these vices are portrayed as "tricks" or "hacks"
It gives the negative connotation that they're used mainly by psychopaths or narcissistic people to get their way.
Yes, they can be used to manipulate people, but they're really just used in everyday encounters to make things positive for everyone - simply touching people on the shoulder when you talk to them and giving eye contact is a great way to connect with other people, and get them to become more comfortable with you. It's a known fact that people who like each other have much more physical contact between them. Observing this, and portraying it as something new and abusable is just silly.
Maybe we're all losing the ability to connect with one another authentically.

I won't argue with you because my point we're not of differing views.
