My younger brother keeps saying he is an Alpha male and bad mouths who he thinks are Beta. Can some one please explain to me what the hell is going on? (self.explainlikeimfive)

Dunno, but your fixation on defending the use of a kink as an insult soulds pretty assholeish. You do you.

Ok, in fairness the second comment was a dumb joke. But I fight stupid bigots with stupid bigotry. Its more entertaining for me than trying logic and reason because as we have seen time and time again from Trumpists it plain doesnt fucking work. Fuck them, if I have to be mad listening to their dribble, Im gonna make them madder.

Someone constantly spouting off about being an Alpha will hate a dismissive "shut up cuck" and being walked off on so much more than actually respecting their stance by arguing it with logic.

I also hate bigots, it's just that engaging in hate against non-bigots to go against bigots is unnecessary when there's tons of other ways to go against bigots.

I never said "don't insult the bigot pro alpha asshole". Please do, but please don't kink shame <3
