The idea that wolf packs are led by a merciless dictator, or alpha wolf, comes from old studies of captive wolves. In the wild, wolf packs are simply families

Baboons act more like that, you know primates like us.
Bonobos, primates like us and more closely related than baboons, do not.
I mean. They are a matriarchy. So one could say the oldest is the alpha female. Who only accepts a new female in the group if she’s able to sexually satisfy the matriarch. And in case you want to see what bonobo gay sex looks like… don’t. It looks like two sopping tumors rubbing against each other.
Oh thank god the tumors aren’t dry.
…There are a range of animal behaviors out there, and just because humans choose to identify with some more than others doesn’t mean we have to.

Aren’t we all captives of society and cultural norms
The louder they are, the more fragile they are
That goes both ways lol
how so?
Are you truely ignorant, or are you trying to stir the pot here?
how else can this go, is my question. i don’t see queers insecure about heterosexual incels.
Don’t push alpha to production, silly.
So alpha males are males who are unrefined and flawed? 🤔
Beta males must be further along in development, then.
Gold males used to be pretty damn good. Now they’re just as buggy as the rest, and usually need a few patches on release day.
“A delayed male is eventually good, but a rushed male is forever bad.”
Yes im a alpha male: still in developement and full of flaws
I’m a bad boy. I’m a boy and am literally bad at everything :(
LTS Males are more reliable, they may still need patches though.
Fear is the primary emotion of any dude who calls or thinks themselves a alpha.
It’s really funny. Real alpha males don’t care if you wear a rainbow or not.
Real alpha males don’t exist. The study on wolves having alphas have been proven wrong my most.othet subsequent studies.
Well…
Alpha wolves definitely don’t exists, but there is support for “alpha” behaviour in primates, particularly chimpanzees.
“Alpha” is still a stupid and harmful idea, but it’s not without precedent.
They also found in other chimpanzees that alphas don’t exist. I think we are both in agreement that it’s a stupid construct to apply to humans though.
And the biggest badasses I know also drive some of the crappiest cars and such too.
When more hilariously, here in Australia, I do a lot of hiking and such, and the badasses these days tend to be women. There’s a lot of macho guys who talk big, but I’ve done some scary hikes with elderly women and a woman with Parkinson’s.
The guys and women i.know who do the most crazy stuff also tend to be the most friendly people
‘alpha males’ find that they cannot use their typical lazy tools for wiping out competition when dealing with such adversaries. violence against them is unacceptable. filthy rumors aren’t damaging.
Alpha Males 🤝 🌈
Why are there so many
Rants against rainbows
And hatred of showing pride?
Look. Once upon a time a rainbow was a rainbow and everyone loved them. Then a group of people turned it into a symbol of a political movement and now a rainbow is no longer just a rainbow.
Of course some people are displeased.
The “symbol” being LGBTQ people asserting their right to exist. Without those “displeased” people, the symbol would have never been necessary.
That is nothing to what you people did to the swastika.
Those are the people that just do what told to do. They’re told how to feel and think and they gobble it up. They’re easy to see, usually wearing a red dunce cap and have some flags of a washed up felon in the back of their black ram 1500.
If we could just round up the political people and get rid of them the world would be a much cleaner place.
I’m with you there. Now because of social media it’s worse than ever before. The last ten years… oof.
Reminds me of the fight porn video on reddit recently where a sp./port. Andrew Tate elbowed someone out because another guy fell asleep on his shoulder ring the subway and he had to have a closet gay fit of felonies.
Was there always a bucket in that picture?
Maybe they were feeding the rabbit from the bucket. The rabbit just wanted some snacks, and these kids didn’t like that.

If you’re so strong why you need the whole world for a month to back up your life decisions, lmao
But the serious answer is because LGBTQ people have been systemically discriminated against in pretty much every country
Literally the next thing in my All feed is about the previous US president having a chill time with a man who proposed stoning gay people to death
The month does just give companies an opportunity to sell different colours
Oh sure, there’s definitely lots of valid criticism of rainbow capitalism, but to be clear, it’s not pride month itself that’s the issue there - it’s corporations leveraging it for profit
A whole month that still wont effect you in anyway.
1 Corinthians 6:9 Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
1 Corinthians 6:9 The words men who have sex with men translate two Greek words that refer to the passive and active participants in homosexual acts.
Is that the “lay with another man” bit? I’m pretty sure there’s arguments over the original text, and scholars think it originally meant “don’t have sex with little boys” not don’t have sex with men.
It’s very specific, and it’s in many places across the entire Bible. It’s written with the same concept, in different ways, leaving no room for misinterpretation when you read the entire thing. I just finished the new testament, can confirm it’s spread across that entire thing in different ways too. Here are 3 of them:
Romans 1:26-27 (NIV):
"Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error."
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 (NIV):
"Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God."
1 Timothy 1:9-10 (NIV):
"We also know that the law is made not for the righteous but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sinful, the unholy and irreligious, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers, for the sexually immoral, for those practicing homosexuality, for slave traders and liars and perjurers—and for whatever else is contrary to the sound doctrine."
Not that I actually consider the Bible to be an authoritative source on morality (see: slavery), but are those faithful to the original texts? I only ask because it’s my understanding that sexuality wasn’t viewed as a straight-gay spectrum back then, but instead as a dominate-submissive spectrum. Like, if they were to actually have a problem with same sex acts, it was more to do with messing with the social order than any inherit sexuality problems.
How many threads are you wearing? Do you kill your kids when they dont obey you? Think owning slaves is fine as long as they survive a couple days after you beat them?
