Some of the many articles about it:
The notion that wolves fight amongst each other and the strongest becomes the “alpha” and the weakest is the “omega” and all that, is a misconception that has been debunked ages ago, and even the author of the study who called them “alphas” in the first place is pleading with his old publisher to stop printing the dang book already so this misconception can finally die out.
Wolf packs are more or less just families. One “breeding pair” and their pups, which often stay with their parents way into adulthood.
I’ve known it for ten years.
Indeed. There are many still who are making big bucks on this misconception. The worst offender in my opinion is “The dog whisperer”, who is likely the worst well known dog trainer, and has done (and still does) a lot of damage. The whole basis for his school of thought is based on this alpha/beta/omega hierarchy.

I only watched his show once and it was so clear that he was abusive that I couldn’t even watch the whole episode. Just disgusting.
At least it helps point out the awful people who use the terms “Alpha” and “Beta” unironically to describe people.
Alpha hyenas, however, those are definitely real. But they’re boss babes so the PUAs can’t work with that
we all really do watch the same exact things on youtube dont we
Alpha dommy mommies
Alpha: Incomplete, generally unstable and full of errors.
Also, not fit for public consumption

In other related news, the makers of these shirts watched their stock prices plummet today:
The magic of Three Wolf Moon exists on an entirely different plane than anything else wolf related. Those wolves are no longer a one-man wolfpack.
I’m not sure ‘alphas’ are the target market for this shirt.
Actually, I’d love to see this shirt on self-proclaimed alphas. Would be so… badass…
Alphas?
I’m gonna hodl.
moass incoming. Shorts are scared. Shorty burns.
Why am I down 99 percent?
But that is a group photo, nothing alpha about it.
“Alpha” males - ftfy:-P
These days, the only people still using this debunked wolf talk are douchebros, chuds, & incels.
There’s no shortage of well meaning dog owners who don’t know any better.
And femcels
Wolves are also scavengers and would gladly eat rotten corpses, trash and literal shit (just like dogs).
I’m pretty sure Moon Moon is an alpha version wolf.
LIES, EVERYONE KNOWS I’M THE ALPHA AWOOOOOO 🐺🐺🐺
People who say alpha wolves don’t exist obviously never seen me crankin my hog. ARRRROOOOOOOO
HE’LL YEAH BROTHER NOTHING LIKE CRANKING A COLD ONE AFTER CRACKING YOURE HOG AROOOOOOO
Just like the vaccines cause autism study, this won’t ever die out. People only ever remember the original.
also the microwave study, learned about that one from my sister.
And just like marijuana leads to heroin.
Yeah, I tried explaining this to a “dog person” and they wanted no part of it. It was like telling a child Santa Claus wasn’t real or something
People only ever remember the original.
And only partially so. Conveniently, they forget the part where, IIRC, guy was just trying to promote his own vaccine
Ironic. It wasn’t his own vaccine. It was two vaccines that he held stock in.
His name was on the patent. There was a second name on it as well, and that guy was someone whom the first cited. This second guy lost his license two years before publishing his paper, that the infamous one cited.
All of you are wrong.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Wakefield?wprov=sfti1
He had a bad study linking autism to certain vaccines and wanted to sell test kits.
Deer had “produced documentary evidence that Wakefield applied for a patent on a single-jab measles vaccine before his campaign against the MMR vaccine, raising questions about his motives”.
He both wanted to sell test kits and have his own vaccine.
You’re the most wrong lol.
He put out the study stating a link between the MMR vaccine and bowel disorders. Further stated that autism was caused by bowel disorders.
He advocated people to take the seperate vaccines not not the single MMR vaccine. At the time of the study he was developing his own vaccine and had a stake in another, meaning his study had a strong monetary motive.
He would become and anti-vax hero even though he wanted people to take more vaccines, not none.

They’re called High Value Wolves these days.
Women: Get some minute fraction of some sort of competitive advantage against men, in a single arena, when the OnlyFans "revolution" happened
Men: I'm suddenly a "high value male" ! Who is probably broke af
- a man
Try telling Andrew Taint this
I tried, but I don’t know the address to the prison he’s in.
…so he can have a total meltdown over an internet stranger again? =P
Just what a beta would say.
All wolves are beta. Weak.
As a software developer I’m fine with this point of view.
"nice"
A lot of guys have started calling themselves sigma males, but i just approach them and tell them I’m a Smegma male which is over a sigma male. 😤 these are facts that cannot be disputed.
Be a gamma make and hulk out!
Would you like cheese on that?
🧀 🍆
They’re just jealous because Smegma males come with built in flavor enhancers. Women crave for our taste and scent. 😤💪🏼
Me? I’m a Ligma male.
Me? I’m more of a π-male myself
Oh yeah? I’ll bet you use USPS like a schmuck. Your “package” “came” in the “mail” 😤 I think not.
Ligma nuts.
Got em
As I’m from Brazil, I proud myself in being lambda (the spelling is very close to “lambida”, or “a lick”)
