Great, first rape, then ass, now children.

You are vile

Yeah, I don’t think being able to buy an AR-15 with a 3-day wait is “strict gun control”, but you can believe that if you’d like.

It’s, like, the exact opposite of strict gun control. That’s a gun delay, oh no

You’re obsessed with rape and now ass. Get help

Why do you distrust dictionaries and ignore definitions that you don’t agree with?

I don’t get the motivation.

Laugh more! Meanwhile, alpha still means first in every dictionary ever printed.

Ha!

Citation needed? Your imagination does not dictate reality… where did you hear this? Seriously

In the PNW you can buy AR-15s, shotguns, rifles, semi-auto pistols, and more.

I think you’re confusing PNW with New York or some other location with “strict gun control”, which really just means that you travel to another state to purchase firearms anyway.

Firearm sales have tripled since 2000, that’s our bread and butter.

That’s neat! A heavy crown to bear.

I’m glad you learned something today… now go forth, and sin no more.

You could say… that your favorite definition is the “alpha” of definitions.

You’re wrong, according to the definition, anyway. You should let Oxford know that you know better! I’m sure they will crown you as king.

Think about rape out of nowhere some more, that will surely prove you’re not a vile worm

You’re wrong according to any dictionary ever printed, sorry.

It has more than one definition, and one of those is “first”, and you must accept that as fact.

I don’t know, you tell me… here we are having a nice discussion, and why are you thinking of assholes? Nasty.

Alpha means first, as it has for millennia. Get mad about it

Wow, this is big news… you should write Webster, Oxford, et al immediately and let everyone know they’ve made a massive mistake! Thank you for saving us from this horrid linguistic error!

You are 100% wrong, and not even worth an insult. You bring shame to your family and make me sad.

I’m right still, you are wrong! Alpha is not problematic in any way. It’s in the Bible (the best selling book on Earth, at least at one time), it’s used in pop culture while not referring to the study in any way. So now annoying people use “alpha” just like “king” and “prince” and “the best” and “the greatest”.

You’ll all get over it soon, as usual. I promise.

p.s as per your question, yes I do know of it, as stated in my post that you responded to. I’m sorry that referring to it was an inadequate indicator that I knew of it, so I’m guessing your question is a joke? I mean, it’s obvious.

It does! However, alpha still means “first”, as it always has. The word predates the study by centuries.

Alpha means “first”, it does not mean “wolf who fights other wolves while in captivity according to one study.”

Do people not know this?

Trump is just the symptom, he’s not the disease. He has thousands of enablers and supporters throughout government, including the Supreme Court.

If we got rid of Trump tomorrow, the disease would remain; those thousands of people won’t disappear. This could not happen in a healthy republic, we’re far beyond that now. Super PACs rule and cash is king; both parties are not the same, but they are both bought.

Did you know that foreign countries can also “influence” our parties through Super PACs? Our representatives don’t work for “us” any longer, we don’t have enough cash to compete against multi-generational corporations and foreign governments.

And our only legal recourse is to ask our representatives to stop gorging themselves. They will not.
