Hey Everyone, hope you're enjoying the video đ. Here are a few additional thoughts.
1) In my experience, when english isn't someone's first language and an unexpected comment is made, the person often assumed they didn't get it due to the language barrier, in those scenarios, the person often just assumes the best until the intention becomes very clear. I wonder if that's what happened to Kjersti (the interviewer) at first, it's possible she was laughing along because her mind just didn't assume that Blake was starting an interview with guns blazing, until it became very clear that she was.
2) there's another contradiction in Blake's confusing speech at the end about meeting celebrities, in the first example she says that when you meet a celebrity "the DISAPPOINTING thing is when you meet the people they're so much more awesome." Then, immediately after, in her second example, as she talks about meeting celebrities again she says "That's ALWAYS NICE to see that your idea of someone isn't who they actually are." So in the same answer she went from meeting celebrities being "disappointing" to being "always nice." And although I think she went from talking about the disappointment in the media to the always nice of the celebrity themselves the structure of the sentence really sounds like she was making it up as she goes along without really knowing what sheâs trying to say.
3) some people in the comments are shifting the focus from Blakeâs behaviors to her intentions, maybe she didnât want to talk about her pregnancy or maybe she took the physical comment as inappropriate. Thereâs nothing wrong with that, with trying to understand the âwhy,â but there are three very important caveats that have to accompany that focus. 1) if weâre going to talk about intentions, then we have to consider Kjerstiâs intentions as well, even if some people may think itâs not right to comment on someoneâs pregnancy, she didnât mean any offense by it, TO HER it was a polite acknowledgement (regardless of wether that is objectively true), it doesnât make sense to defend one personâs intentions and judge another personâs. 2) even if her intentions were to normalize not talking about pregnancy, the message was snappy and unclear, she didnât clarify that that was causing an issue. Anyone who is saying thatâs why she acted the way she did is speculating. There would have been a way for her to calmly explain her position on that, even today, I would personally love to hear it. But that never happened. And 3) intention doesnât change behavior. Justifying why something may have happened behavioraly doesnât counter the behavior. If I say that someone is smiling and therefore is probably happy, it doesnât contradict the analysis to say âno they got a raise today, thatâs why theyâre smiling.â Whether she had a good reason to or not, her reaction was dismissive and snappy, to explain why doesnât make it any less so. As a behavioral analyst, I call out behaviors and what they suggest. Saying âthis is why she acted that wayââisnât a counter, itâs an agreement.
