Your brother is on a (specifically designed and heavily funded) pipeline to being a total piece of shit (not just with misogyny, but racism, and probably queerphobia and ableism too), do what you can to get him off it. A quick search brings up what looks to be some good info to start you off:
Misogynistic influencers are trending right now. Defusing their message is a complex task
De-radicalising incels out of the ‘manosphere’ through Reddit
There are also many youtube videos on the subject, though I haven’t watched any recently, so I won’t link, but look up something along the lines of “manosphere right wing pipeline” and you should see some results.
Alpha males are like alpha versions of software
neutron male 😎
He wants girls to think he is cool but has received bad advice
It’s called the manosphere, and it’s a bunch of bad podcasters and YouTubers giving shitty advice on how to be a man to insecure kids. It’s annoying because it’s so stupid on its face and yet it’s working.
Can you blame them, though? I can’t think of a single person speaking for young men who is also widely accepted by the liberal left - or however you want to define the “good guys.” Even here on Lemmy, anyone slightly deviating from the narrative is met with extreme hostility. It’s not that young men are naturally drawn to figures like Andrew Tate - they’re being pushed there.
I just can’t take anyone seriously who refers to liberalism as “the liberal left.” Liberals absolutely have not treated young men well, but for fuck sakes man read a fucking book or something just once in your life.
I literally don’t know how to describe the userbase of a platform like Lemmy any other way but maybe you can suggest me a better term then. I’m not talking about liberalism. I’m talking about a group of people.
Liberalism, which is a centre right ideology if we’re using that idiotic left right scale, is fundamentally different from leftism and conflating the two is disingenuous at best and willfully ignorant at worst.
What’s wrong about calling it liberal left then when literally 100% of those people are left wing leaning? Isn’t that like saying “the conservative right”?
No, because liberals are not leftists.
‘The left’ ‘leftists’
Beat his ass to establish dominance.
True solution, beat him into submission so that now he’s the beta male and all of a sudden he’s denying the concept

It’s not important whether he believes in that nonsense, it’s important that he knows he’s the lesser brother.
Andrew Tate and his cum dungeon brother are a big reason for this.
Ask him,whether this alpha beta talk is a furry thing.
People are generally stupid, even more so when they’re young. Younger people are getting brainwashed by low-IQ online influencers into believing this Alpha/Beta shit.
It’s that simple.
If you want to help him, try to break his addiction to those influencers.
Did you seriously just do the same exact thing but with high vs low-iq? Was this irony intentional?
No. But I can see how someone obsessed with being obtuse as a hobby could benefit from implying that I was doing so.
Likes or death, amirite?
Toxic people that would never have had a platform for their bullshit have suddenly gained that ability in just 20 years time because of the internet. People that would normally receive a lot of fists in their face, do not anymore. The digital world is such a new thing that it’s completely unnatural for us to live with and it affects our perspectives and social lives. It simply goes way too fast for evolution to catch up to.
Without good care, it creates people that are completely delusional and deranged. Filter bubbles also add up to the problem. One that consumes content will be served more similar content, creating and feeding a very limited perspective. Because everything in the digital world is so new, there have been almost no studies in how it affects us and how it should be remedied.
Bro… Evangelical pedo clergy exited before social media…

file bankruptcy to settle it all.
Chief pedo in Vatican and his Intentional Pedo Protection Org should be liable if local pedo ring is BK’ed, or if not catholic, whoever they pay their fee too.
Your brother currently is a little loser who listens to the sad little men like Andrew Tate who talk about aloha and beta and have no fucking idea what they’re talking about. He can be alright, he just needs to get out and touch grass, interact with real people, interact normally with girls… He’ll be fine.
That tells you that he’s insecure about himself
Just tell him that alpha and beta thing does not exist in the wild. Even the author said so.

It does not apply to humans. Are you saying your brother is a wolf? Is he a furry perhaps?
Humans are more complex than that.
Also doesn’t apply to wolves, the original researcher just mistook a parent protecting her kids for an aggressive male
Kick him in the nuts so hard you remove him from the gene pool permanently.
It’s a furry thing
Yeah, ask him how many omega males he’s fertilised.
next time he says that just slap him hard. And ask him who’s the alpha now?
