One reason Zooeyyyy is such a poor public speaker is that his facial cues are incongruous to his message. He can't hide his true feelings.
"What you're watching here --"
[smirk]
"--is you're watching people who do not want to see democracy in action. They want to strip us of our rights, and it's NOT ENOUGH for them to get the harmful bills through--"
[soft sigh/laugh, blissful smile]
"When someone stands up and calls out their bills for the harm they cause, for the DEATHS they cause--"
[tries to activate sincere emotion ......... loooooong pause while scanning eyes of the audience]
"--they want silence. And we will not be complicit in our eradication."
[leaves frame before anyone can ask follow-ups]
The awkward laugh and pause, if you notice it, you might chalk up as him being extremely nervous and gathering his thoughts, but the sudden smile demonstrates that he's very pleased with
what he's about to say, that he thinks it's gonna be really good, and that clues us in to how self-serving this speech is. It's a character break. The acting is really bad and self-conscious. I also really like the hand over his heart like he's clutching his pearls, but it seems like it's stuck there so he can modulate his whispery girl voice and sound like he's constantly about to cry.
