Every time he says it ask him if that’s a furry thing.
Kick him in the nuts so hard you remove him from the gene pool permanently.
I say this as a younger brother who was beat up by older siblings. If you are both under 18 and he’s a lot smaller than you, slap him. If he thinks he’s an “alpha” and you aren’t, it might be the only thing that points out that he is just human
After you do this, please please please try to point out his error in thinking. No “alpha” commands any respect and the “alpha” bosses are the ones nobody wants to work for
“There is no such thing, if you want I can slap you around and prove you’re just a normal person if you like?”
Avoids hitting anyone and hopefully gets the point across. If it doesn’t… Wouldn’t hitting them not get it across anyways?
Tell him you aren’t interested in hearing about his omegaverse self insert
Andrew Tate.
You mean Gollum
He’s defective. Talk to the manufacturer about getting a replacement
Ask him,whether this alpha beta talk is a furry thing.
Just tell him that alpha and beta thing does not exist in the wild. Even the author said so.

It does not apply to humans. Are you saying your brother is a wolf? Is he a furry perhaps?
Humans are more complex than that.
Yeah that argument has never dissuaded a single chud from embracing in the “alpha” bullshit. They’re being fed this bs from manosphere manipulators like Andrew Tate or someone adjacent or from peers. Their goal is to become cool and intimidating, it’s not about the bad research that lifted up this bullshit myth so long ago.
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.
Young men who start to behave this way are lacking direction and aren’t self-starters. So to cope with the fact they aren’t accomplishing anything or going anywhere in life, they assume an outwardly-accusing posture.
Contrary to the image peddled by the grifters, every guy I’ve known with the “alpha” mentality has been a dishwasher, car porter, snow shoveler, or unemployed cretin.
Your brother is being recruited by the fascists. That is what is going on.
In 1958 a researcher studied Wolves. He observed that some get all the female and food. He named those Alpha, and the others Beta.
Some people started to postulate that human work the same: There must be Alpha male and Beta male. There are 2 problem with that:
1- Obviously Human are not wolves
2- the study was on wolf in captivity. In nature it was later observed that there are no Alpha nor Beta: every wolf get same share of the resources
But the narrative that human are like wolf , still appeal to some male trying to justify their toxic behavior like it was some rule of nature. Forgetting, that if their is one thing that human do compared to other animal, is to control, manage and overcome every “rule” of nature. Else we wont be able to even use fire.
Nitpicking, but not every rule of nature. I still need to pee :(
Hopefully you dont do it on the spot when the need arise ;)
He’s just an alpha marking his territory.
Anyone who has to vocalize that they’re an alpha, isn’t. Your brother is a loser.
If you have to say you’re in charge, you’re not
kick him in the ribs, become the true alpha
People are generally stupid, even more so when they’re young. Younger people are getting brainwashed by low-IQ online influencers into believing this Alpha/Beta shit.
It’s that simple.
If you want to help him, try to break his addiction to those influencers.
Did you seriously just do the same exact thing but with high vs low-iq? Was this irony intentional?
No. But I can see how someone obsessed with being obtuse as a hobby could benefit from implying that I was doing so.
Likes or death, amirite?
It’s extra funny cause iq is just as much bullshit as alpha.
every metric for intelligence is bullshit to some degree or another. Yet, some people are actually dumber than others. IQ is a concise term that gets the point across, for the sake of communication, what more do you want?
IQ is a useful test when applied correctly. Using it on individual is rarely productive, but comparing population groups with similar cultural values is very useful. Two rural towns with a 10 point difference? Maybe the chemical plant down the road is doing something. Boomers being a few points lower then Millennials? Leaded gas.
