View source for Ideology of the Alpha

The '''Ideology of the Alpha''' is the ideological notion that nature is organized into "alphas" and "betas," in a natural system where alphas are dominant, aggressive, and have that "killer instinct," and betas are naturally submissive and compliant. 

==Notes==

Although the names change over time the ideology is present wherever a class system of exploitation exists.  

The Ideology of the Alpha is based on the now recanted "wolf psychology" of David Mech. See [https://theconversation.com/are-bullies-alpha-males-or-sick-puppies-93524 Sosteric (2018)].
