DO BRING OMEGAVERSE TO LEMMY PLEASE THIS IS MY SAFE SPACE 😭
I am lost. Can someone spoonfeed me the meme?
Not sure, but I think the bad wolf study is the one that established the "alpha" bullshit. I have no idea about the erotica but the thing about bioessentialism is mocking the belief that humans and animals have fixed unchangeable characteristics... Such that a "weak" male will always be so, or some such crap.
Idk really
The bad wolf study was the Alpha/Beta relationship of wolf packs that is wildly regarded as untrue.
The deranged erotica is people applying Alpha/Beta dynamics to random characters for the sake of creating fanfiction. I’m talking Mpreg and other deranged ramblings of sleep deprived tumblr fans.

Actual wolf packs are a family. One pair of adults plus their children. Until those are old enough, then they leave and search for a partner and own territory.
All the stuff you read about pack alphas, all the sociological pseudo-science about alpha behavior derived from it... that's all based on a one bullshit study about a large group of wolves artificially intoduced to a new area, that in no way behaved like wolves naturally do.
Basically the equivalent of putting a few dozen teen-age boys on an isolated island then studying their behavior to understand human society.
Omegaverse is the big domino

alpha werewolf that can impregnate other cismale werewolf is just one of the tropes
Structure/meme format: like with the "dominoes", one seemingly small thing can lead to much bigger things happening
Context: the 1970 book "The Wolf: Ecology and Behavior of an Endangered Species" popularized the hypothesis of the alpha, beta, and omega wolf, which has birthed all sorts of toxic and stupid bullshit that has harmed many humans, pets (especially dogs), and other animals.
The author, David Mech, has since tried to get the publisher to stop selling his erroneous book and basically dedicated most of his career to educating people on how wrong his most influential work was.
I think it's about the alpha male (guessing from the post title and nothing else)
edit: I think it has nothing to do with it actually
edit 2: was actually correct
It's everything to do with it. Read some of the other replies.
alpha wolf and momma bear
leaders of the drive-thru tribe
Sigma meme
You've got cause and effect in the wrong order.
In what way?
It's a switch.
something tells me the deranged erotica would exist anyways, iirc it's something marx predicted as a consequence of capitalism, seriously.
The alpha/beta wolf notion doesn't even make much of a sense, considering wolves tend to be loners but only make packs when they need to hunt.
