Hym "You see how he's just dialing back the competence thing, right? The Alpha male isn't the one who sluts out the most females it's the one that's nice to them or something. Just his subtle way of imposing his values on his fans. Be nice to women whether they sleep with you or not because that's the REAL competence. His whole thing is conflationary. He's conflating 'Competence' with 'association' because he knows success has more to do with
association than competence.
That's what he does. He says things that are untrue. And then just dials them back. It's a subtle way of trying to manipulate his fans into being nice to women and is evidence he doesn't give a shit about 'disaffected young men'. The
manipulation is the evidence. Right there. "
