  • It was a huge disapointment that contrapoints demonstrated this way of thinking on the genocidal settler colonial movement called zionism.

    Personnaly, I listen to anti-zionist Jews on on the matter, like Jewish Voice for Peace, since they are the largest Jewish anti-zionist organization in the world. Having JVP’s input, I can say this word substitution doen’t work for me.

    Still thank you OP for posting this because, somehow I wasn’t aware of it. I unsubscribed from contrapoint’s channel, and I will not watch any of her videos again, unless she has a change of heart.







  • I tend to agree with what you say but I feel like mentionning a couple of things I see perhaps differently.

    I believe saying marine mammals are a myth has nothing to do with claiming alpha males don’t exist. The first is about a biological classification, the latter is about observed (or projected) social behaviors within one species.

    Apart from that, and to my understanding, the manosphere has taken a hold of the alpha male narrative and expanded it far beyond the scientifically debunked myth. I do not imply that the fact that the alpha male myth has been debunked means that there are no hierarchical structures in species, just that when they are present, they are misrepresented in order to promote competitive narratives. This is why primatologist Frans de Waal inadvertently popularized the term ‘alpha male.’ Now, he’s debunking common stereotypes to explain what an ‘alpha male’ really is – empathetic and protective.
