The following post is part of a thread chronicling the ascension of a young straight Alpha named Matt who suspected his good friend Andres was not only gay, but also a faggot … and rose up to protect him. CLICK HERE to read all of these posts in chronological order!
I’ve become well-known for a few things, but one of my teachings Alphas seem to love are my definitions of the “Protector Alpha” and “Destroyer Alpha” extremes of the Alpha persona. Every Alpha has these two opposing forces at work on them. In adolescence, the Destroyer Alpha persona often takes prominence, leading to bullying and violence. But those Alphas more disposed toward righteousness have their Protector Alpha instincts take over and guide them, controlling some of their more insidious Destroyer Alpha tendencies.
Those two sides are constantly in a state of flux, warring against each other for control of every Alpha. This is important to understand, because this war inside every Alpha is the same war we see in our society. Alphas lead our world, and it can only be as good as our greatest Alphas, those righteous Protector Alphas who stand up against evil Destroyer Alphas in defense of the powerless and the weak.
It is a war of universal importance!
I’ve helped a lot of Alphas come to recognize their Alphahood through this site, and when they discover the truly untapped power within themselves, they begin to understand the great gift (and burden) they carry as superior Men. These powerful Men literally hold life and death in their hands! It’s a sobering responsibility, and learning how to wield that kind of power is a key to an Alpha’s success.
The latest Alpha to arrive here is a young, natural-born straight King named Alpha Matt. He wrote a heartfelt letter in my Questions From Readers inbox about his friend Andres. He suspected that his friend was not only gay, but also a faggot. Now, this didn’t bother Alpha Matt at all (unlike many homophobic Destroyer Alpha types) because Alpha Matt is a righteous Protector Alpha. He simply wanted answers in order to help his friend accept his purpose. You can read that first letter by CLICKING HERE or following the link above.
Well, Alpha Matt followed some of my suggestions, and now he returns with a heartbreaking update:
Hey, this is Matt. I wrote you a few days ago talking about my gay friend Andres, still in the closet. It might be weird that I am so committed to helping him come out, but just to give you a bit of context: my little brother is 19 now and he suffered A LOT of homophobic bullying in high school, his bullies threw his backpack with all his books in the toilet a few times, they would spit on him when he was just trying to go to class, etc. One day he arrived home with a black eye and crying a lot, and because my father is also very homophobic he just said that he got into a fight at school, but later he confessed to me that the guys punched in his face while calling him a faggot, and he didn’t even try to fight back. After that day, I promised to myself, as the Man I am, that no gay around me will ever suffer again. My little brother is much better now, he has a very nice and respectful boyfriend, and his living his best life now. But I do not think he is a faggot at all, he is just gay. Andres, however, is way more submissive. Now that my little brother is okay and happy with his man, I do not want to see my friend unhappy.
We were watching a World Cup game yesterday just the two of us, so I thought it was a good moment to test the waters. Out of a sudden, I told Andres that my little brother liked to see soccer but I didn’t allow him to go to the stadium without me because it’s not a safe space for the gays. Then I said that, as a straight man, it is my responsibility to fight against homophobia in soccer and everywhere, especially within my own family because my father is very aggressive against my gay brother. Andres just remained silent, looking at the TV, so I said “bro, you know that you’ll be my friend no matter what, right?”, and then he turned to me and said “yeah, my father would definitely kill me if I were gay”, and I answered “If you were, or if he knew you are?”
I don’t know if I did it right, maybe I’m an asshole, but Andres started to cry and cry and cry, he was sobbing, I hugged him and he spent some time just crying on my shoulder until he said “I don’t wanna be gay”. Oh Sam, I would punch every single homophobic man in their face if I could. They destroy so many lives every single day. But I will not let it happen with my little bro and my best friend. I didn’t want to push it too further with Andres, so I told him to relax, and that I could help him with whatever he needs and wants. He is terrified because of his homophobic parents, but I will be the hope he needs.
I will most likely need your help and expertise to navigate this situation, Sam. Can I keep sending you some updates? I am also VERY interested in hierarchy and my place in it, I wanted to discuss a few things about it with you. But let’s focus on saving little Andres first.
I cannot commend Alpha Matt enough for what he did to reach the heart of his friend Andres! He gave Andres a safe space to finally exhale after so long! It reminds me of this scene from LOVE, SIMON a little bit:
I must say I wish I could’ve had a powerful Alpha friend like Alpha Matt to help me and protect me as a teenage faggot! I’m sure many gay males wish the same! So many nights I cried alone out of frustration, shame, and fear, just like poor Andres did with Alpha Matt! I feel this completely.
And it’s so clear that Alpha Matt’s affection and concern for his friend is genuine and powerful, and not an act. He uses affectionate descriptive words like “little” when talking about Andres. I’m reminded of the Biblical account of history’s greatest Alpha, Jesus, when he wept at the tomb of his friend Lazarus. At John 11:36, the onlookers said: “See, what affection he had for him!” They were surprised that this powerful Son of God could feel such depth of affection for the lowly and the weak.
But true Protector Alphas like Alpha Matt do have such feelings for the weak! They recognize faggots as defenseless and broken, yet still worthy of care and affection!
The rage Alpha Matt expresses here is palpable. I think he would put his fist through any adversary that dares to hurt a gay or faggot in his presence! I’m so relieved that Andres has a safe place at the feet and under the shadow of such a powerful Alpha of great integrity!
Alpha Matt wants to help little Andres, and so do I. My advice for the moment is to keep engaging him in conversation and let him express his feelings, desires, hopes, and needs as much as possible, even if it disgusts you personally. Do what you instinctively did that first time, and hold him when he cries. Stroke his hair like a puppy dog and give him a safe space. Faggots are a natural source of information about the breadth of hierarchy because they are the polar opposite of an Alpha. Smart Alphas investigate the thoughts and viewpoints of faggots because then they learn the length of their own power.
But through the struggle of Andres, a great new Protector Alpha has arisen to lead other Men and Alphas. It’s a glorious moment for me to see, because with every ascending Alpha my own teaching is vindicated anew. Every great Alpha faces challenges that cause him to shrink back or rise up to meet it. I’m so proud of my young King Alpha Matt for being the Protector Alpha our world needs!
Thank you, Sir!
