Gentlemen of the Tribe,

Buckle up, brothers, because today we’re diving deep into a phenomenon that’s been staring us in the face, yet remains one of the most perplexing paradoxes of our time: The Rise of the Beta Men.

Why is it that so many of our corporate leaders, cultural icons, and elected politicians, those at the supposed "top" of the social hierarchy, often appear as weak, indecisive "dorks" rather than the alpha Chads we’d expect to be running the world?

If alpha men are meant to dominate status hierarchies, how are beta males occupying these positions of power? This isn’t just a glitch in the system, it’s a seismic shift.


The Alpha Myth and the Hypergamy Reality

Let’s start with the basics. Online and in the manosphere, we hear endlessly about "high-value men", the alpha males who crush it in life and the sexual marketplace. These are the guys who embody competence, diligence, intelligence, and yes, sometimes ruthlessness, to climb the social status ladder.

We know women, all things being equal, tend to mate and date hypergamously, they aim up, seeking partners higher in the hierarchy. This makes sense evolutionarily: a man with resources, power, and prowess offers security and strength.

But ascending these hierarchies is brutal. It demands grit, skill, and an edge that most don’t possess. By definition, those at the top should be the alphas, more capable, more dominant, more "Chad-like."

So why, then, do we look around and see so many leaders, CEOs, politicians, cultural figures, who seem like beta males, lacking the backbone, charisma, or presence we associate with true alpha energy?

Despite a recent shift in some circles toward valuing traditional masculinity (think the last election cycle), why do so many at the top still come off as weak? Shouldn’t the guys in charge, by the very nature of their position, be the alphas? What is going on?

This is no flaw in the model, brothers. It’s a stage in a larger, unfolding game, a social movement in motion.

The Survivor Analogy: A Social Psychology Masterclass

To crack this puzzle, let’s turn to a brilliant analogy from the TV show Survivor. I’m no superfan, but this show is a goldmine for understanding social dynamics, with real people, played out across nearly 50 seasons. Winning Survivor isn’t just about being the smartest, strongest, or most likable. It’s about adapting strategies in a chaotic, ever-shifting social milieu. Sound familiar? That’s life, gentlemen.

In one iconic season, Survivor ran a gender-based experiment, pitting men against women. Both teams started equal, but the early game was a massacre. The men dominated every challenge, building a cooperative system, shelters, fire, hunted game, living comfortably in a primitive setup.

The women? They were huddling under rocks, wet, cold, and lacking the skills or systems to match even a fraction of the men’s infrastructure. The men’s competitive edge grew stronger with every win, while the women lost challenge after challenge, dwindling in numbers.

So how did the women, against all odds, end up eliminating every single man and winning the game? Pause for a second, brothers, think about it. How did they pull off this coup?

Here’s the mind-blowing truth:

The women realized they couldn’t win head-to-head. Direct competition was a losing battle. So, they got strategic, brilliantly, ruthlessly strategic. They observed the men’s camp and saw the truth: power and skill weren’t evenly distributed.

A natural pecking order had emerged, with the most competent, β€œalpha” men driving the team’s success. These alphas were the backbone, building, leading, winning. The men, like a high-functioning sports team, accepted this hierarchy.

The lower-status men didn’t resent the alphas, they worked together, each with a role, aligned toward a common goal. Hierarchy actually made them stronger, with the alphas acting as the team’s executive function, decisive, coordinated, effective.

But the women saw an opening. They sowed dissension among the men, targeting the lower-status β€œbeta” males with a cunning pitch: β€œLook, we’re screwed. You’ve won. But once we’re gone, who’s next? You think you can beat those alphas?

They’ll pick you off. Let’s form an alliance, us and you, against them for mutual self-preservation.” It was a rational argument, but the women didn’t stop there.

They layered it with emotion:

  1. Pity: They played the damsel card, making a show of their misery, wet, cold, helpless, tugging at the beta males’ heartstrings. Soon, these men were sharing food and fire with the women, their literal competition, undermining their own team.

  2. Desire: They flirted lightly, dangling the promise of relationships β€œdown the road” once the alphas were gone. β€œWouldn’t we be better company than a bunch of sweaty dudes?” they hinted.

  3. Fear: They amplified the betas’ insecurity: β€œYou’re next on the chopping block.”

Through this trifecta, fear, pity, and desire, the women turned the beta males into a fifth column within the men’s camp. It started with clandestine sabotage and bad faith, then escalated to open revolt.

The women and betas formed a majority voting block, eliminating the threatening alphas one by one.

And then, the twist: once the alphas were gone, the women broke their alliance, voting out every single beta male. The very outcome the betas feared, being cast aside, came true because of their betrayal.

The women couldn’t win in direct competition, so they manipulated emotions to turn the lower-status men against their stronger brothers. Pretty clever, huh?

The Rise of the Beta: A Modern Parallel

Gentlemen, this is the best explanation for why we see so many beta males in positions of power today. We’re not at the endgame, this is an intermediary stage in a social movement, not the desired outcome.

For decades, we’ve been collectively β€œvoting out” the alpha males, and it’s happening through a similar alliance: women and lower-status men, united by emotion and narrative.

Here’s how it’s gone down:

  • The Redefinition of Masculinity: Over the last few decades, traits of traditional masculinity, toughness, strength, stoicism, competitiveness, have been rebranded as β€œtoxic.” Impressionable young men, still figuring out who they are and craving external approval, have been raised on a version of β€œwhat makes a man good” largely constructed by women.

  • Notice the shaming language: a β€œreal man” is always defined by his relationship to women, how he serves, protects, or pleases them, never by his own terms, his own purpose.

  • The Emotional Play: Just like in Survivor, this shift leverages fear, pity, and desire. Young men are told masculinity is dangerous, shamed into compliance (fear). They’re urged to be β€œallies,” to rescue others from their own β€œtoxic” nature (pity). And they’re promised approval, even affection, for conforming to this new ideal (desire).

  • The Alliance: Women, unable to compete directly with alpha males in historically male-dominated domains, have forged a bond with lower-status men. These men, driven by a need for female validation, often indistinguishable from their self-worth, betray their β€œbrothers” by aligning with a narrative that labels traditional masculinity as toxic and misogynistic.

  • The Power Play: This alliance forms a voting block, literal and figurative, capable of removing alphas from authority. Ideologically backed policies, cultural narratives, and even moralized, medicalized language (β€œtoxic masculinity” as a diagnosis) have made alpha traits, assertiveness, ambition, dominance, morally reprehensible. Only the most strong-willed, disagreeable men resist this conditioning, especially when it’s fed to boys too young to think critically.

Why This Is Happening: The Competition Shift

Let’s get real, brothers. The days of complementarity, men and women moving in separate, cooperative orbits, are gone. Modern women are in their masculine, entering historically male domains, business, politics, status hierarchies, seeking money, power, and recognition.

They’re in direct competition with men. And just like on Survivor, alpha males are tough to beat head-on. Even other men struggle to outcompete them. So, the play has been to remove them from the game.

The strategy? Redefine the rules. Make alpha traits, competence, strength, decisiveness, seem dangerous, toxic, and outdated. Convince lower-status men to join the cause, trading their loyalty for approval.

The result is fewer alpha males with each generation, and a system where betas rise to power, not because they’re the most capable, but because they’re the least threatening to the new dynamic.


The Wake-Up Call: What’s Next?

Play the tape forward, gentlemen. Once the alphas are β€œvoted out,” what happens to the betas? Just like on Survivor, they’re next. Women can and do outcompete beta males daily, they’re no obstacle to victory.

These men are useful only until the alphas are gone. Think of the β€œnice guy” providers, divorced once their wives no longer need them, summarily dismissed when their usefulness expires.

Make no mistake: this is a competition. And if direct confrontation won’t win, guerrilla tactics, narrative control, emotional manipulation, come into play. All’s fair in love and war, right?

But here’s the million-dollar question: Will women, or society, be better off if women occupy these top positions? On Survivor, the women’s village never functioned well, even after they took over.

They lacked the skills and systems to maintain what the alphas built. In the real world, the game doesn’t end when someone wins power, it’s just the beginning.

And in my view, we all, men and women, thrive when the most competent, capable people, regardless of who they are, run the show. It’s not perfect, but it works better than the alternatives.

A society without alphas risks crumbling under the weight of untested leadership.


Your Mission, Brothers

Gentlemen, we’re at a crossroads. The rise of the beta is a stage, not the end. The question is: will lower-status men wake up? Will you see the game for what it is? You’ve been sold a version of manhood that may not serve your best interests, or society’s. Ask yourself:

  • Does this fit your experience? Have you felt the pressure to conform, to shy away from strength, to seek approval over authenticity?

  • Is the β€œgood man” ideal you’ve been taught truly in your favor, or someone else’s?

  • Put the shoe on the other foot: would women accept a model of femininity defined by men as being in their best interest? Why should you?

This is your wake-up call. Don’t be the beta who betrays his brothers for a fleeting pat on the back. Reclaim your strength, your purpose, your edge.

The alphas aren’t the enemy, they’re the blueprint. We need men who lead, build, and protect, not just follow. The game’s not over, and your role in it matters.

What do you think? Have you seen this dynamic play out? And do me a solid: Share and Restack this newsletter with a brother who needs to hear it, for me to continue to be able to continue releasing free content like this.
