Subtle Domination Techniques: How Emmanuel Macron Uses Gestures to Assert His Power

Political confrontation hinders progress and divides nations.

Have you ever met someone who immediately tries to establish a power dynamic with you? This is exactly what Emmanuel Macron attempted with the President of Senegal through a detail that few noticed. But if you want to uncover this, watch closely.

Before delving into this detail through a video that honestly left me speechless, let’s set the stage. What is politics? In my view, politics is a constant power struggle. For instance, consider the debate between Jacques Chirac and François Mitterrand.

“I am not the Prime Minister, and you are not the President of the Republic. We are two candidates on equal footing, subject to the judgment of the French people. Allow me to address you as Mr. Mitterrand.”

“You are absolutely right, Mr. Prime Minister.”

The first time I saw this exchange, I laughed at how François Mitterrand put Jacques Chirac in his place. However, upon deeper reflection, it becomes clear that this scene is not just amusing but also violent. Chirac attempted to level the playing field by stating, “You are not the President, I am not the Prime Minister; we are equals.” Yet, Mitterrand firmly reasserted his superiority, demonstrating a critical aspect of politics: the need to establish dominance.

Publicité

In recent years, no one exemplified this need better than Donald Trump. Power dynamics reveal true intentions. Trump is a political anomaly because he is transparent. Most politicians smile at you but hide a metaphorical knife behind their backs, driven by personal ambitions. Trump, on the other hand, wields his knife openly, showing his desire to be the top dog.

This desire for dominance was evident in his interactions, whether in debates or interviews, but most strikingly during handshakes. Typically, a handshake is a gesture of greeting and respect. With Trump, it became a competition to establish who was stronger, who was the boss. One person with whom this competition never went smoothly was Emmanuel Macron.

Whenever Macron and Trump met, their handshakes were always peculiar, almost surreal. This ridiculous spectacle revealed their mutual desire to dominate, leading to bizarre moments like Trump flicking Macron’s lapel for dandruff or Macron gripping Trump’s hand tightly. Such interactions highlight a relentless and bloody struggle for dominance.

The battle for dominance exposes hidden truths.

Macron, astutely, has adopted some of Trump’s techniques, as seen in his interactions with the King of Denmark and the President of Senegal. Let’s explore these techniques to understand the unseen aspects of political power plays.

The Pendulum Technique:

Typically, Trump initiates a handshake by pulling his counterpart towards him, creating a destabilizing effect. The natural reaction is to pull back, which Trump counters with another tug, creating a pendulum effect. This move destabilizes the person physically and mentally, reinforcing Trump’s message: “I control you; I am the dominant one.” Macron employed this technique with the King of Denmark, demonstrating his own quest for dominance.

The False Submission Technique:

Here, Trump extends his hand first, palm up, in a seemingly submissive gesture. Once the counterpart takes his hand, Trump takes control, manipulating the handshake and ending with a condescending pat, signaling his dominance. Macron used this tactic with the President of Senegal, showcasing his learned dominance strategies.

Such gestures may seem trivial, but each movement conveys a message about the individual. Macron’s handshake with the Senegalese president, starting with an upturned palm and ending with a controlling pat, signals his attempt to dominate subtly.

The thirst for power is a sign of immature minds.

After examining these techniques, one must ask: How can one counter such dominance? The key lies in recognizing the game and choosing not to play. Life is too short for petty power struggles. True leadership is not about dominance but about fostering cooperation and shared goals.

A leader empowers others rather than crushing them. The best example of this is Monkey D. Luffy from the manga One Piece. Luffy’s strength lies in rallying others around a common goal that benefits everyone, earning genuine loyalty and respect.

When faced with someone like Macron or Trump, respond with poise. If they play dominance games with handshakes, politely acknowledge their strong grip and suggest a friendlier gesture. By doing so, you defuse the power struggle and establish a respectful equilibrium.

True success in life lies in balance—between passion, love, and wisdom. Avoid the traps of pseudo-dominance. Be a leader, not just in your family or among friends, but in fostering an environment where everyone can thrive. Write “I am a leader” in the comments as a moral contract with yourself, committing to productive, meaningful actions that leave a lasting impact on the world.
