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.
“I am the alpha and the omega” only means “I am the beginning and the end” because alpha and omega are the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet. Alpha does not mean “first” in Greek you smug dipshit.
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!
Alpha means “first”, it does not mean “wolf who fights other wolves while in captivity according to one study.”
Do people not know this?
No, alpha is the anglicization of the first letter of the greek alphabet. It doesn’t mean ‘first’ any more than the letter A does.
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.
In correct. “It” does have many definitions, but none of them are ‘first’.
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.

I see that my definition comes before yours, so I am king.
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.
A crown made of internet points isn’t heavy at all.

You are 100% wrong, and not even worth an insult. You bring shame to your family and make me sad.
What’s it like living inside of your own asshole?
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
I’m not mad, I’m laughing at you. You’re a joke. Keep it up, I love a good laugh.
Laugh more! Meanwhile, alpha still means first in every dictionary ever printed.
Ha!
You’re funny.
Why do you distrust dictionaries and ignore definitions that you don’t agree with?
I don’t get the motivation.
Gee. It’s almost like language evolves!
Get bent you rape apologist

Am I talking to a child. 👶. Good luck on numbers I heard they come after shapes lil buddy
It does! However, alpha still means “first”, as it always has. The word predates the study by centuries.
