>>136600069
Just to suggest that there is no such thing as alphas and betas is ludicrous, there's always been alphas and betas

Not true. One of my best friends was a pure Basketball Alpha (He was a white Norwegian). Hottest chicks, awesome car, all the typical chad traits. Dude still hung out with the nerds and played D & D with us. Was always the leader. The takeaway is that a chad is a chad, no matter the setting. Also that not all chads are assholes.

>>136601326
His argument is that leaders are relative to whatever role they are playing. Like when he shows the guys playing D&D and the alpha from before is portrayed as a "beta" in that role. The argument is flawed, because the term alpha usually is applied to one role, social dominance. Therefore, Adam's "theory" on relative alpha-ness proves nothing. The alpha that could dominate in social situations is an alpha in the true sense of the word. The alpha that can dominate in D&D, you would call him an alpha OF D&D, not an alpha WHO PLAYS D&D.

>>136601419
No, he'd be acting overly ballsy and fucking around with everyone, as opposed to respecting the group and acknowledging his lack of knowledge.

Sure, everyone wants to be the Virgin and not Chad

Alpha males exist, but they're extremely rare. Most alpha males are doing time in prison because they're too alpha for society to handle.
The biggest alpha male I ever met was 5'2", chubby as fuck, covered head to toe in tattoos. He was the guy running the unit I was in. Surrounded himself by tall, muscular white guys who could have totally kicked his manlet ass, but this short guy was so alpha that he was able to make all these other guys respect and follow him.

>>136601286
See his video. I personally think being an Alpha is a vague term that varies from person to person and it needs a proper definition before I would consider the hypothesis further.

Fuck off, Adam. Only other cucks fall for your bullshit. Gorillas and Chimps live in troops and it's been proven that there is always a troop leader, or a group of 'alphas' who hunt and get to eat first, etc.

Even in the workforce, those with alpha qualities like leadership skills and intelligence tend to get put in charge. Not that a liberal cuck like you would know anything about having an honest job.

Correct.

Nobody cares about how alpha you can play a videogame or how alpha you are at eating cheerios. The only metric that matters is whether or not you can impregnate a good female.

Well for one thing the social sciences are mostly bullshit. Another thing, Adam didn't even debunk Alphas and Betas, he merely stated that the Alpha and Beta system in wolves are a myth, and bonobos live in a matriarchal society. How the fuck does that apply to humans again? While bonobos are our closest living genetic relative we have nukes, they have sticks. Different fucking worlds.

>>136602674
He doesn't debunk in most of the episodes

>>136602674
Well, he completely disregarded the fact that in the context with wolves; while they are made up of a family unit, the father still has to be alpha enough for the mother to want to mate with him: the Alpha-Male and the Alpha-Female. This is also forgoes the fact that when confronted with another pack, it is always the Alpha-Male that squares off with the Alpha-Male of the other pack

The entire episode was a "LOOOOOOOK! Everything we know is wrong!" yet completely omitting the entire breadth of research and context

>>136602369
Whether or not you can impregnate a good female depends on what the prevailing culture values, the female biological imperative is to follow trends. If D&D was a trillion dollar industry with top roleplayers getting huge contracts you could establish high social status through playing D&D. Newton established his dominance in a social hierarchy that highly valued advancement of knowledge.

Freud and Frodo the chimps are great examples of different types of approaches to dominating the social hierarchy.

Normies always say pseudoscience or "there's no evidence to support your claim." This is colloquial terminology, not science. No one ever made a claim that they were doing le science. Easy way to spot a weak intellect there, they will say one or both of those things

>>136600353
There are alphas and betas but those who sleep around generally aren't alphas. The alpha is simply the leader, and all great leaders are devoted to their wives and children. Men who sleep around or cheat on their wives don't have the respect of their children so they aren't alphas, the same is true of women who sleep around. So the dichotomy exists but not in the way most people use the terms.

Yes. He used his position to score with plenty of chicks, especially young girls. He was basically a glorified pedophile.

Alphas exist in gorilla and chimps

Monkeys, hominids, apes, etc operate on this alpha / beta dynamic

So do lions

Hyenas and bonobos operate on an alpha female basis and the female hyenas actually rape the males regularly with "psuedo penises"

There's all sorts of crazy shit in nature

>>136606551
Also bonobos have a sort of Alpha male, basically the son of the alpha female gets to mate with 80% of the fertile females without expending any effort

>>136605373
Hopefully he doesn't marry her and take the long path to the inevitable redpilling

>>136599807
>try to delude self into thinking betas and alphas aren't real

Alpha and Beta aren't real though. The scientist who actually coined the phrase alpha and beta back in the 70's while he studies wolf society tried to correct his mistake for years. But it was too late. The liberals and feminist latched on to it to denigrate the majority of males.

>David Mech introduced the idea of the alpha to describe behavior observed in captive animals. Alphas, he wrote in his 1970 book "The Wolf: Ecology and Behavior of an Endangered Species," win control of their packs in violent fights with other males.

>But, as he outlined in a 1999 paper, he's since rejected that idea in light of research into the behavior of wolves in the wild.

>In nature, Mech writes, wolves split off from their packs when they mature, and seek out opposite-sex companions with whom to form new packs. The male and female co-dominate the new pack for a much simpler, more peaceful reason: They're the parents of all the pups.

>Mech writes on his website (with the lovely title Wolf News and Info) that his original book is "currently still in print, despite my numerous pleas to the publisher to stop publishing it."

He basically mistook Alpha/Beta with good parenting.

>>136599807

When he said actual alpha wolves didn't exist, I knew he must have been smoking some wicked good stuff. If you watch any wolfpack it's obvious the biggest and strongest is not the alpha just because he's the father.

Isn't this just a "Relativity" argument? Basically saying like "how do I know how you are <really> real?" "It's all retaliative bro". Though I think his point was to see what was really was the top level of human social societies. In any case he really just 'mix-matches' the claim that alpha's/beta's don't exist in juxtaposition to different societal levels of existence.

tl;dr The concept of 'alpha' can he seen under other parts of the 'earth' ecosystem, but Adam tries to show us that the term 'alpha' is nullified to begin with. When all he has done is nullify one pointer to the idea of 'alphaism', it exists under different principals and names regardless.

>>136606984
But when people say a man is "alpha" or "beta", they are using the term as it pertains to humans, where an alpha man is strong and confident, while a beta man is awkward and weak.

When people say something fragments, they're not always talking about hard drives. Technical terms can have colloquial meanings, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Humans have known about dominance hierarchies since before written history, it's the only way to domestic animals.

>>136608767

>In the 2003 book "Sexual Selections: What We Can and Can't Learn about Sex from Animals," the biologist Marlene Zuk points out that social groups of hens do have "pecking orders." That is, hierarchies among the females with dominance asserted through pecking.

>But roosters are not part of those social groups, Zuk writes, and the idea that the top hen is somehow an "alpha male" bizarrely misgenders the dominant bird.

>All of which is to say: Humans who enjoy the idea of "alpha males" might want to keep in mind that there isn't really any such thing. And to the extent the term has any meaning at all, it describes the behavior of captive, lonely creatures.

not to mention the beta/alpha thing isn't a perfect way to describe humans, it's a slang concept that arose from a need for a "good enough" way of referring to the simple observable fact that there are a small number of men who slay pussy like it's unreal and tend to have assertive, dominant characteristics and that this is a natural extension of being part of a sexually dimorphic species.

"Alphas" and "betas" exist, sure, but only as a construction of a particular discourse. Human social behavior is incredibly complex, ironically enough constructing neat little reductionist forms to shape your reality with is part of that.
