Explain Like I'm Five

Just tell him he's fully cuckpilled cause he clearly isn't looksmaxxing.

This comment section is either full of top notch satirists or the worst fucking people on Lemmy. I honestly can't tell.

How old is your brother? If he is an early teenager, it is possible that he picked these concepts up from somewhere and will very likely grow out of that thinking all by himself.

How old is he?

Every time he says it ask him if that's a furry thing.

He is a furry that identify as a wolf. /s

It's a furry thing

If you're really asking what it means, an Alpha is a strong leader. They don't take commands, they give them. If they want something, they take it. They consider themselves superior to the weaker beta males, and feel that it is their duty to lead the betas, or that they are doing them a favor by pushing them to be more like an alpha.

Although, a lot of the time, the people who claim to be alphas have none of the redeeming characteristics, so they just act like entitled assholes.

EDIT. I think because I didn't come out swinging people are assuming I believe any of this shit. I was trying to explain it from the perspective of their brother. I thought they wanted to know what it was about, and just calling people assholes doesn't really explain what THEY believe.

Re-educate him & show that Alphas don't live that long

The surest way to guarantee you're a beta is by calling yourself an alpha

The underline issue is that human evolve to be part of social norms. Use to be a tribe, a country, a sport club. But new generation can be have more options. Associating with alpha male or whatever means he belong to a group who might like his meme or comments.

It could also be due to lack of a man figure they can associate with. So watching documentaries of strong males might help shed light on what the role could look like.

What you want is to balance his only identity or group with other (groups). For example, joining a gym, fishing, be part of musical band …. Whatever he is also into, just to get him out of that only identity he is associating with.

For me I would try to come from telling him being alpha means you can hunt or camp or survive in the wild, then lead to cooking classes or wood working. Something that mentally and physically taxing. I also would watch gordon Ramsay shows and Anthony Bourdain just to crash that image of one way to be an alpha male. You can cook and be an alpha male as the same time type thing.

Anyone who calls themselves an "alpha" anything is a small dicked nobody.

Tell him you aren't interested in hearing about his omegaverse self insert

Alpha and beta? I'm released on service pack 2
