The above video details an interesting study involving the game Monopoly and how advantaged people are transformed by their unfair advantages. It’s a curious study in that the participants so easily slipped into bully behavior, revealing how unfair advantages lead to superiority complexes. It’s also odd that these advantaged people, after achieving their success, all attributed their success to their own power and not the advantages they were given.

This study can be extrapolated and applied to Alphas and Alphahood, of course. Alphas are given tremendous genetic and psychological advantages – better bodies, more attractive features, more aggression and dominance, more love and worship and support – and this helps to secure their place at the top of hierarchy.

The study reveals the possible natural origins of bully Alphas, as well as some naturally-bad Alpha behavior resulting from their superior advantages. There is a sort-of animal cruelty that arises when superior Alphas see and use inferior males. As this study demonstrates, it’s likely unavoidable.

But it also demonstrates another truth: hierarchy literally permeates every aspect of our society and our lives. Once you see it and understand it, you’ll see its presence and effects everywhere.
