Alpha Responses

By -

President Trump has been referred to by many as the epitome of an Alpha male. The Rifleman agrees with this observation.

The State of the Union Address that Trump gave earlier this week has many prime examples of Trump's Alpha nature. If you will recall, this blog has dealt with Alpha responses on multiple occasions. Let's review the three main types of an Alpha responses -
1. Agree and amplify.
2. Dismiss and ignore.
3. Ridicule and reframe.


Agree and amplify
Trump told the story of Ji Seong-ho, a refugee from North Korea, who lost his left leg and left hand in the process of escaping.

Before the State of the Union Address, many #Libtards were saying that we should not go to war with North Korea. While war is never a desirable outcome, Trump's illustration points out the moral correctness, should that outcome become necessary.


Dismiss and ignore
Russia.


Ridicule and reframe
“Preston's reverence for those who have served our nation reminds us why we salute our flag, why we put our hands on our hearts for the pledge of allegiance, and why we proudly stand for the national anthem. Preston, a job well done,” Trump said.

Young Preston Sharp placed 40,000 American flags on veterans graves after noticing many were not adorned by flags on Veterans Day.

Trump ridiculed those in the NFL who take a knee during the national anthem, by pointing out how it should be done, using the example of a very patriotic young man.


Summary
Rarely does one get to witness all three responses in the same time frame. However, it is worthy of note that the ultimate alpha male was able to deliver all three in his State of the Union Address.

This author has many preppers for friends, due to obvious reasons . One of the topics that comes up often is comms in an emergency situation. I have decided the hill I will stop on is local comms - as can be had via normal handheld walkies or similar. To get more range, ham radio is about the only civilian option, and I will NOT be going that way.  It is a protest. And this is why .  From the tweets : "I hate to be discouraging, but I must remind everyone that even in a time of emergency, unlicensed operation is against FCC regulations. I know that personally I've received a few tattle-telling messages from hams over the past few days who have reported to me people sharing life-saving information over the radio without a license.  This is a constant reminder that for the overwhelming majority of the ham radio hobby, there is NO emergency so severe that unlicensed operation will be accepted. Sure, net control for formal nets can operate under emergency rules, but for most ...

Reposted from Social Media: By Robyn Eshelby-Theart. ====== I'm a qualified dog behaviourist. Not only that, but I spend my entire life working with dogs. It's literally my 24/7/365 as, beyond being a behaviourist, I have a doggy daycare and boarding facility. My job is dogs. Tonight I will share something with you. And for the sake of all innocent animals, I hope that you read it. PIT BULLS ARE NOT PACK DOGS. PIT BULLS ARE NOT MULTI-PET-HOME DOGS.   Now before everyone launches into the "I know a nice pit bull who nurses kittens and walks around with a duckling on his shoulder" stories... Everyone knows a nice pit bull. If everyone here was to post their nice Pitbull story, within a minute or two people who truly understand the breed would refer 100+ pit bulls currently sitting in rescue within 50km of Fourways, with profiles on social media, whose only crime was being true to their breed design. Hundreds of Pit bulls around the country, possibly thousands in fact, ...
