  • P.S. why do AlphaBros specifically look at wolves, or lobsters, to instruct us on social hierarchy? There are so many other animals, those seem pretty random choices. And pretty far afield from humans.

    Because other animal choices don’t validate the rightwing ideology that places them at the top, which is their entire goal in the first place.

    The “alpha/beta” meme was invented by rightwing think tanks in the late 2000’s/early 2010’s to promote their ideology of rigid social-hierarchies where people at the top are allowed to impose and abuse people of lower social station with impunity, and to police and control the behavior of heterosexual men (it ain’t just the LGBTQ’s that get their gender-expression policed, ohhh no no no.)
