Lee 1990 - Bring back the Alpha Men
Note I did not say “alpha males”. The alpha male has a well deserved bad reputation. From the jihadists we fight now, to the Einsatzgruppen of the SS and the marauding armies of Imperial Japan, the uncontrolled alpha male has been the bane of humanity for most of it’s history. The alpha male is something that all men are naturally born as: brutal, lustful, savage and uncontrolled.
However, the revulsion for this creature that has become prevalent in the rational, civilized world has been carried too far and may be its undoing, as suggested by Lee Harris in his excellent book The Suicide of Reason. The need to control the alpha male has resulted in a hideous attempt to exterminate masculinity and feminize society, which leaves us at a great disadvantage in the struggle with our barbarous enemy. John Wayne and Lee Marvin would wipe the floor with the hairless, chinless pretty boys that are now passed off a leading men and examples for our youth.
What we need to do is to begin once again to create the Alpha Men that America in particular used to be good at producing. The alpha man is a matured alpha male. Our country now is polarized largely between grown but immature alpha males (largely in jails and inner city slums) and liberal, emasculated, pencil-necked pretty boys (mostly in New York and LA) who are in the process of civilizing us to death. We must again produce alpha men who have been taught to express their masculinity in constructive ways and have been taught the moral clarity, duty of protection, self-restraint, self sacrifice, and proper direction of aggression (rather than total suppression) that transforms the alpha male which destroys civilization into to alpha man who protects and preserves it.
