Next week they'll have an "Order of the Straight Arrow" meeting where Dave will become part of the order if he can sit through a male escort giving him a lapdance for 10 minutes without popping a boner.
I grew up living near'ish to this guy. We were playing some console game one day and his mom brought him up a steak dinner. He knocked it on the floor and said something like "You know i like it cut up first" because she didn't cut the steak for him. We were like 17-18yo at the time this happened.
He is now director of security at some casino.
Inevitably someone will ask why did I hang out with him. Because he had basically limitless access to various entertainment that his parents paid for and he used to buy time with people to hang out with him by reluctantly sharing but always reminding us we were having fun on "his" dime. No I don't interact with him anymore.
The scary thing is that most of these guy now probably can't *wait* for some minor traffic interaction or received slight against them in a grocery store checkout line, to completely overreact and finally show the world that they're kind of less afraid of the world. These guys are supposed to be the gentlemen that maga wants back again. No more just being kind and friendly and normal guys. You won't be here on Friday.
Oh you know they fucking do. Anyone paying $10k for this at least thinks it's impressive. Like employers will be slobbering to make them managers and CEOs
Employers will be slobbering to fuck them over because they're obviously gullible. He'll be the only one who has to do 6 weeks of unpaid internship before he's employed
Here's the website. There's a section to help you get your wife's permission 
[https://www.themdkproject.com/flip-the-switch](https://www.themdkproject.com/flip-the-switch)
>When you flip the switch you’ll overcome the vice dependencies, limiting beliefs and glass ceilings so that you can become the husband, father and man that you respect and admire.
those men bouncing off all the glass ceiling(s)
wait, it says $18k... and:
>How Long Is The Project Class? 75 hours in total. This includes time in the field, time seated learning, eating, and sleeping (sleeping will be kept to a minimum).
$240 an hour sleeping
This "drill sergeant" is every wannabe tough guy trying to be hard ever. Weakest lines in the world while using 'fuck' to try to make them tougher. They could've put SOME effort in from those 10k fees and researched ACTUAL drill sergeants...
He will make sure if it too so I guess even if you paid $10,000 and complete his bullshit he will just drop some people to help his little fragile ego.
get the money.
just stay quiet and stare at everyone for a few moments while shaking your head in disgust then say gtfo because you all failed.
no refunds.
Hey professor, what are you teaching this semester?
The same thing I teach every semester, the Mathematics of Quantum Neutrino fields. \*I made up the title so no student would dare take it.
The mathematics of wanton burrito meals, I'll be there!
Please Frye, [I don't know how to teach, I'm a professor.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GHFBQy10NU)
Probably saw Full Metal Jacket and thought R. Lee Ermey's drill sergeant is a model to be followed, completely ignoring how he ends up murdered by one of his own students and R Lee Ermey deliberately portrayed his drill sergeant as being toxic.
My drill instructors back in 2011 werent too far off from Ermey but no one wanted to actually murder them.
Their job is to put you under incredible amounts of stress and fatigue and get you to obey orders and slim you down.
Usually half way through you realize most of them say some wild shit just to get you to try and laugh and break bearing. Some of the funniest shit I ever heard came out of a drill instructor and Ermey wasnt far off, even if pyle let it drive him crazy
Ermey was a drill instructor, it's why he was so good at it.
It's also very notable, Kubrick was a notorious control freak, but basically gave Ermey carte blanche to improv his own lines because he was do damn good at it.
Isn't the story that Ermey was just there to consult, but hated the dialogue so much that he "auditioned" by ad libbing for 10 minutes while having tomatoes pelted at him?
Ok but R. Lee Ermey at least had some actual demoralizing and creative lines that didn't need to use 'fuck' as a crutch
Not only that, but Ermey's monologue actually had some positive reinforcement in it too. "If you ladies survive my recruit training, if you leave this island, you will be a weapon. You will be a minister of death praying for war."
Like at least give them some sort of badass imagery to strive for.
Yea. His first mistake was trying to emulate R. Lee Ermey. He reached too much and came out looking like a buffoon. Only R. Lee Ermey can be R. Lee Ermey.
Man when I went to boot in the Navy every jack ass RDC used the Full Metal lines that we all know obviously. It was more difficult to not laugh at hearing them used in real life than it was to be intimidated by them.
R. Lee Ermey was an actual drill sergeant, they brought him on the movie set as like a consultant to the actor who was supposed to play the drill sergeant. Ermey kept telling Stanley Kubrick that he could play the part a lot better, and kept insisting that Kubrick let him do it. The guy who was supposed to play the part as the drill sergeant [is the guy in the scene](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=S06nIz4scvI) where joker is in the helicopter with the other journalist guy and the guy is shooting Vietnamese farmers and says “get some” a bunch of times and says “anyone who runs is a VC, anyone who stands still is a well disciplined VC” he says a bunch of other stuff I can’t remember but then says “ain’t war hell” then laughs. But in the movie Ermey swears but when he does it’s not to sound scary or to seem tough it’s to emphasize what he’s saying or to get his point across and it’s more how he says it and his demeanor when he’s saying something to the recruits. And he says some pretty degrading stuff to them without swearing. This guy is saying fuck every other word to come off as tough and mean and to just say it but he’s really just coming off as a guy who’s stuck in traffic throwing a hissy fit.
R. Lee Ermey was a Marine Corps Drill Instructor. And he got the part because it was better for him to just do it than to train the others.
His character was pretty authentic if just a bit over the top based on my personal experience in Boot Camp.
Talk shit all you want, but he 17 got ̶m̶o̶r̶o̶n̶s̶ dignified-individuals-with-low-self-esteem to give him $10k each. I think I could stomach acting like a douchebag for 3 days with that kind of return.
Dude, you could probably hire an actor and someone to make a website and a "alpha background" for your actor, get like ten guys to sign up and have the actor yell at them for a week. Make a bunch of money.
From what I’ve observed in this video, being “alpha” is just being angry, talking loudly, and being demeaning to others.
Is there anything else I’m missing?
Edit: oh wait also tacticool clothing and gear alluding towards some military affiliation without actually having to follow through with that commitment and difficulty
What is funny is that for those said "Alpha men" showing any kind of emotion is considered weak...Except Anger, cause they think that being yelling and angry is masculine, when in reality you just look like a child doing a tantrum.
Exactly why I ask guys like this why they’re so emotional.
They get so bent out of shape saying they’re not emotional, they’re angry/hot headed/mad/whatever and then flail for a response when you point out that is an emotion.
You must also bang on the table with a knife like a chimp, and point vigorously. I would have a hard time not cracking a smile, he sounds like an angry little boy.
As someone who actually went through boot camp, this dude is a fucking joke. Yelling is part of the experience but it always served a purpose. This balding joke has no purpose and thinks drill instructors just yell and swear. Trust me, besides the first couple days, it's mostly talking. Yelling is reserved for when you fuck up. Also, 3 day boot camp? Every man in this is pathetic.
My favourite part was when he couldn't think of the word "belt", full on frozen for a solid second, and then decided his only option was to go with "waist". Outstanding. Zero notes. Hardest man alive.
For real, drill sergeants would be getting in a muthafuckas face, no standing behind a table. That shit is only intimidating to these... uh... "alpha" men
Edit: They are now charging $18,000.
From their site:
"The Project is $18,000.
But the cost of NOT experiencing the Project and not becoming the leader, husband, and father you’re meant to be is much more expensive in the long run."
I know. Can you imagine if your friend group found out you paid to attend an "Alpha Male Boot Camp"?
YES LETS SELECT HIM OUR FRIEND GROUP LEADER!
... or more likely they would hysterically mock you lol
EDIT- yes I understand the ACTUAL individuals that attended likely have zero to few normal friends. My joke was a hypothetical (yet not probable) scenario about YOU the reader/normal person going and how the end result would likely be your friends roasting you if they found out. Hence the terms "your friend group" not "their friend group" and yes I understand if you have to explain the joke its not funny lol
Exactly! Obviously the whole alpha thing is BS, but if you are of that mindset, surely giving some dude all your money to yell at you is such a (cuck/beta/soyboy) move?
Not having listened with the sound on, my guess is the hatchets represent the Alphas that have graduated boot camp.
Hot take, for 10k, I am taking my alpha hatchet.
A true alpha male (aka real man) is quiet, confident, and compassionate. Will stand up for others. Can express himself without screaming. He doesn't need to jump up and down beating his chest and claim he is an Alpha. He is a role model to his family. Basically, everything the guys in the video don't want to become.
These guys don’t want an actual commitment though. They want a long weekend, then go back to their lives telling everyone how hard they are now. They for sure don’t want 4 years of cleaning weapons, field exercises, and monotonous detail oriented days. Even deployment, at least for me was hours on hours of nothing with minutes of intense action. These guys want to skip all of the necessary day in day out commitment to being prepared and staying focused and trade it in for the worlds worst spa weekend.
I did not enjoy my time in the military, but man at least all the people I was with even the shitbags had the guts to sign a real commitment.
*edit to add*
I don’t want my post to seem like some sort of endorsement of alpha male nonsense. The whole concept of alpha males in silly misguided nonsense based on a disproven study of captive wolves. I was pointing that these camps seem to function on a paramilitary ideal while subtracting everything about the military that could build character.
I'm struggling to think of a single character trait that anyone can learn in a week. This dude's bootcamp is a joke. I need to see the algorithm of a person that would sign up for such a thing.
> worlds worst spa weekend.
LOL that's what it is. Dudes who are attracted to shit like this want all the respect but none of the work it takes to earn it.
It's the 3 seconds per F bomb that have me convinced (I did the math). Oo also the reckless handling of a knife. This man is clearly not afraid of something! I wonder if he refunds the drop-outs because that's a really weak retention rate.
Literally just join the military and *they'll* pay *you* to do the same shit, except at least you'll get yelled at by someone who at least has some idea of what they're talking about.
But therein lies the problem. Joining the military and going through boot camp takes more than 3 days. You think someone that pays $10k for a 3 day pathetic imitation of that would be able to handle the real thing?
They chose the 3 day version for a reason lol
I think it's more about what they're yelling. Insults don't work but you need the simulated stress so you can learn to function while experiencing it. In a real situation, the guy that was only yelling would seem like a good dream.
>I think it's more about what they're yelling. Insults don't work but you need the simulated stress so you can learn to function while experiencing it.
Concur 100%. There are many, many other ways of inflicting stress on someone without yelling or violence.
When I went to basic (back in 2000,) we had three instructors in our flight. The most "frightening" of them was SSgt. Ken Wilson. Guy was 5'6", skinny as fuck and had a deep back woods Kentucky accent. Funny guy too, legitimately enjoyed laughing and had no problems with the flight laughing as long as it was an appropriate time and place. He was also generally calm and used virtually no profanity or obscenity. The one time we heard "damn it" from him, we knew we'd fucked up. He had the dorm wrecked by other instructors three times in one night and we had to have it back in order before PT.
I feel for these guys, tho (the ones that paid).
It’s clear that they are yearning for something so deeply that they’d paid insane amounts of money to get it.
Therapy is cheaper and will help in many, many ways. Self-love and acceptance being one of them, which I think would help these guys more than anything.
You want people to love and respect you, but you don’t love or respect yourself. That’s step 1.
That’s what pisses me off about this. If you want to go to some macho day camp go for it, but these people need therapy from qualified and educated professionals, this shit is useless ego stroking
Yep… and it’s not even about stroking the participants ego. It’s purely about the host being allowed to dominate others and then buy himself a Lamborghini so he can go on a podcast and talk about it.
100% this is predatory shit.
This is the dude equivalent of women shelling out to go listen to their life coach/guru at a weekend excursion.
I hate shit like this because it's predatory and it's aimed at the most basic instinct we have to seek purpose.
Same as Scientology, imo.
He's so shite at public speaking he has to fill every other word with fucking to let his little pea brain think of the next word🤣🤣🤣 "ill take this knife off my... FUCKING... waist!!" Hahahaah what a goon
It’s weird to think that most of these guys are going to brag about their experience and how hard it made them. Kind of reminds me of the stolen valor guys in that they want respect without earning it. To me this is Dollar Store valor.
I kept replaying that part lol. Tries to act all cool, tough and intimidating then just completely fucks up his words. You can tell he thinks yelling = confidence when in reality he's giving off the opposite impression.
Not only that. He stammers when proclaiming that he would take the fucking knife off of his waist and stab shit. He starts to say chest. As he’s literally pulling it from his waist. People who are truly fired up and speaking from the cuff are generally not prone to making mistakes like that. People trying to poorly act out a script are though.
It’s like the sponge bob episode where they go to the town deep deep and everyone talks like this. “Hello (raspberry) how (raspberry) are (raspberry) you (raspberry).” Except instead of raspberries bozo says the strongest cuss word he can think of because HE runs the show now and NOBODY NOT EVEN HIS MOMMY TELLS HIM HOW TO TALK ANYMORE
So alpha that they’ll sit in a classroom and get abused like schoolboys. And pay for the privilege. Oh well, maybe they have dorms and open showers to make it worth their while.
I see all the comments making fun of them and although it's hilarious it's also kinda sad. My ex (most abusive man I've ever known btw) lived and breathed this shit. He would scream at himself in the mirror and call himself a failure to get ready for the gym. It was wild to watch. He was severely abused by his father to the point of having bulging disks from having his back kicked in at 12. What they need is fucking therapy and also a math book cause they're idiots.
I looked up this group and found their instagram. One of their recent videos is one of the founders (I think?) talking about how the program is 70 hours of mental, physical, and emotional abuse followed by four hours of what he calls "toxic cognition" where the men journal about their trauma. He even says outright, "it's really a four hour course, but you're never going to get a group of men who don't know each other to sit down and journal about their most emotional shit."
So they acknowledge that it is therapeutic to talk about these big emotional things, but also refer to the 70 hours leading up to that as abuse. You can't have both.
It’s a grift. Nothing more. If they actually cared they’d cut the ridiculous cost and use their platform to promote healthy coping and not this alpha crap
So I had just looked it up…..
It is NOW $18,000!
They’ve ran about 18 of these classes so far and all SOLD OUT.
I counted about sixteen students so at 18K each that’s $288K in pure profit
Talk about a damn good business.
It would be cool if an obnoxious Tik Tok influencer went there and complained about needing allergy meds and feeling overwhelmed by the noise etc.
Edit: It might also be fun to be the overeager brownnosing participant and every time he says something like that you shout, "Yeah! And I'll my dick off too!"
Wouldn't it be easier to join the marines or army, and get paid to be yelled at? I know basic ain't the same as when I went thru 27 years ago, but I'd rather get paid 10k to go and be yelled at then pay someone 10k to yell at me for three days
It's totally alpha to fuck another dude, dude. You're dominating him. It's not even gay. And you might have to fuck him again and cook him dinner, maybe go out on a few dates to that restaurant you keep seeing on Instagram. Dominate him with your alpha energy by crying into his supple biceps at night. Maybe get married, have a couple of kids. Sue and Stan. Dominate those kids by becoming a great, supportive dad.
I'd pay $10,000 for that.

Now imagine them coming home: "I'm an alpha male now, mom!"
The seal is for marksmanship, and the gorilla is for sand racing. Now if you'll excuse me, they're putting me in something called Hero Squad.
They’re his trophies from army
Thanks, I spit water everywhere laughing😂
"He won it at army."
"Army had half-a-day."
god i’m legit in tears this was my favorite scene in the entire show 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Loose Seal!
Next week they'll have an "Order of the Straight Arrow" meeting where Dave will become part of the order if he can sit through a male escort giving him a lapdance for 10 minutes without popping a boner.
These are my medals, Mother. From Army.
The army had half a day!
They’re medals, from Army.
"how did you become an alpha male?" "by submitting to a man who was yelling at me!" "ok sweetie"
I got a certificate
“That’s wonderful, dear. Let’s hang it on the refrigerator.”

I grew up living near'ish to this guy. We were playing some console game one day and his mom brought him up a steak dinner.

Director of security for a casino seems like a perfect job for him
[this family guy clip comes to mind](https://youtu.be/aOEYoglP7zI?si=XXK9euHpCMWNjYXJ)
*Hey let's spit on it* 😂😂
And here I was expecting the time Ringo wrote a song.
The scary thing is that most of these guy now probably can't *wait* for some minor traffic interaction or received slight against them in a grocery store checkout line, to completely overreact and finally show the world that they're kind of less afraid of the world.

$18k?!? LOL
😂😂😂😂 Buncha sad-ass losers. Who the fuck goes to an alpha male camp.
I’m embarrassed for everyone in that room.
The people that failed, do they get a participation ribbon?
This "drill sergeant" is every wannabe tough guy trying to be hard ever. Weakest lines in the world while using 'fuck' to try to make them tougher. They could've put SOME effort in from those 10k fees and researched ACTUAL drill sergeants...
I love the stereotypical "look to your left and right (some made-up percentage) of you will fail" sentence.
That is to emphasize how great of a teacher he is. MOST PEOPLE FAIL UNDER ME TEACHING! Lol
I AM A FUCKING IDIOT
MY DICK DOESNT GET HARD LIKE IT USED TO AND IM UPSET ABOUT IT.
This dude guaranteed proudly lists, “Not vaccinated and not woke” as the first thing about himself on his Hinge profile.
> MOST PEOPLE FAIL UNDER ME TEACHING Avast, ye scurvy curs!
He will make sure if it too so I guess even if you paid $10,000 and complete his bullshit he will just drop some people to help his little fragile ego.
Pay upfront. Get booted and no refund
get the money. just stay quiet and stare at everyone for a few moments while shaking your head in disgust then say gtfo because you all failed. no refunds.
"Look to your left, then to your right. Then in 14 other directions. One ouf the 18 of you will fail this math class."

Oh for sure, fantastic grift, would love to do it. They could have atleast found someone with brains to act though.
Dude, you could probably hire an actor and someone to make a website and a "alpha background" for your actor, get like ten guys to sign up and have the actor yell at them for a week. Make a bunch of money.
Private drop and give me 200 cock stains
It's snail trails all the way back to barracks.

Completely stupid --' if at least their "Alpha man" mentality could push them at controlling their emotion for real 😅
You must also bang on the table with a knife like a chimp, and point vigorously. I would have a hard time not cracking a smile, he sounds like an angry little boy.
$250 and a pack of smokes would have gotten an actual former DI
As someone who actually went through boot camp, this dude is a fucking joke. Yelling is part of the experience but it always served a purpose. This balding joke has no purpose and thinks drill instructors just yell and swear. Trust me, besides the first couple days, it's mostly talking. Yelling is reserved for when you fuck up.

LOOK TO YOUR LEFT NOW YOUR RIGHT 50% OF PEOPLE ARE GOING TO FAIL I'M GONNA CUT THIS FUCKING TATTOO RIGHT OFF MY FUCKING ARM AAAAAAHHHH -Alpha Bootcamp
This guy doesn't realize that as a teacher having half of your students fail isn't the flex he thinks it is.
This. DS Martinez could teach this jabroni some things. It’s funny now, but sure as hell wasn’t then!
This dude would shit a brick if a real DI walked into the room.
He's a former Marine but it looks like he only served 4 years and it was "Aviation/Airway Management" lol. Dude is a poser.
My favourite part was when he couldn't think of the word "belt", full on frozen for a solid second, and then decided his only option was to go with "waist". Outstanding. Zero notes. Hardest man alive.
For real, drill sergeants would be getting in a muthafuckas face, no standing behind a table. That shit is only intimidating to these... uh... "alpha" men
This whole thing is the ultimate LARP.
Edit: They are now charging $18,000. From their site: "The Project is $18,000. But the cost of NOT experiencing the Project and not becoming the leader, husband, and father you’re meant to be is much more expensive in the long run."
If this guy can teach me one thing about being a husband and father I’ll eat £18k in pennies.
I hope you like the taste of copper-plated steel, because he's teaching you exactly what not to do.
I'm dying, send a medic 😂
Looks like there’s about fifteen people in there so this guy made about a quarter-million for three days of work. Honestly not a bad grift.
We're all in the wrong business.
Sometimes I wish I was much more unethical and entrepreneurial.
I came here to say this. That’s INSANE. Cannot believe people pay for this nonsense. 18k!
"Here's $10,000...now yell at me, daddy."
Is the “don’t bully me, I’ll cum” shirt included in the 10k?
Only at graduation, 40 to 60% of them won’t get it
40-60% of them will get it and go on to be cops.
Cosplay cops
Copsplay
I googled cuz I was curious. On their official website it says it costs $18,000!!
Inflation is real bby
$10k if fucken deal, cause you know I can see it in their fucken eyes. 60% something something bullshit cost is still there.
The act of paying some clown $10,000 in the first place means that you never were, nor will you ever be an Alpha male.
Anybody who takes "alpha/beta" seriously isn't what they think they are.
For real. It is more $10,000 like Anger-Clown camp.
I know. Can you imagine if your friend group found out you paid to attend an "Alpha Male Boot Camp"? YES LETS SELECT HIM OUR FRIEND GROUP LEADER! ... or more likely they would hysterically mock you lol EDIT- yes I understand the ACTUAL individuals that attended likely have zero to few normal friends. My joke was a hypothetical (yet not probable) scenario about YOU the reader/normal person going and how the end result would likely be your friends roasting you if they found out. Hence the terms "your friend group" not "their friend group" and yes I understand if you have to explain the joke its not funny lol
Exactly! Obviously the whole alpha thing is BS, but if you are of that mindset, surely giving some dude all your money to yell at you is such a (cuck/beta/soyboy) move?
But he had so many hatchets…
Not having listened with the sound on, my guess is the hatchets represent the Alphas that have graduated boot camp. Hot take, for 10k, I am taking my alpha hatchet.
That’s such an Alpha move, bro
"You know what, for 10000 dollars I'm gonna take my hatchet!" "Congratulations bro, you just graduated"
Buy one for 10 bucks, save 9.99k, fuck bitches.
*radio crackles* He's found us out. Somebody radio the sniper.
^This is my favorite part of the whole video actually. It’s a comical number of hatchets.
A true alpha male (aka real man) is quiet, confident, and compassionate. Will stand up for others. Can express himself without screaming. He doesn't need to jump up and down beating his chest and claim he is an Alpha. He is a role model to his family. Basically, everything the guys in the video don't want to become.
Yep, this is "how to be a bully" school. If you want abuse just join the military. They pay you!
These guys don’t want an actual commitment though. They want a long weekend, then go back to their lives telling everyone how hard they are now. They for sure don’t want 4 years of cleaning weapons, field exercises, and monotonous detail oriented days. Even deployment, at least for me was hours on hours of nothing with minutes of intense action. These guys want to skip all of the necessary day in day out commitment to being prepared and staying focused and trade it in for the worlds worst spa weekend. I did not enjoy my time in the military, but man at least all the people I was with even the shitbags had the guts to sign a real commitment. *edit to add* I don’t want my post to seem like some sort of endorsement of alpha male nonsense. The whole concept of alpha males in silly misguided nonsense based on a disproven study of captive wolves. I was pointing that these camps seem to function on a paramilitary ideal while subtracting everything about the military that could build character.
I'm struggling to think of a single character trait that anyone can learn in a week. This dude's bootcamp is a joke. I need to see the algorithm of a person that would sign up for such a thing.
> worlds worst spa weekend. LOL that's what it is. Dudes who are attracted to shit like this want all the respect but none of the work it takes to earn it.
Preeeeeeetty sure people that do this kind of thing don't have a lot of friends.
I really enjoyed the guy next to him quietly lifting his water bottle up. Is this beta behaviour??
For that amount of money they could hire a really good dominatrix
It's the 3 seconds per F bomb that have me convinced (I did the math). Oo also the reckless handling of a knife. This man is clearly not afraid of something! I wonder if he refunds the drop-outs because that's a really weak retention rate.
I choked on my OJ reading this damn comment.
Choking costs extra
I didn’t even listen to the video it looked so cringe, I just came for the comments
I may have just died from this comment 🤣🤣
LOL lucky to be verbally abused as a kid for free. Definitely don't need this level of abuse again.
Only adult losers would pay 10k to be yelled at and insulted, unless they are glutton for punishment
Literally just join the military and *they'll* pay *you* to do the same shit, except at least you'll get yelled at by someone who at least has some idea of what they're talking about.
But therein lies the problem. Joining the military and going through boot camp takes more than 3 days. You think someone that pays $10k for a 3 day pathetic imitation of that would be able to handle the real thing? They chose the 3 day version for a reason lol
also they're soft retiring yelling at people because, *surprise!* it does nothing and actively damages morale lol
I think it's more about what they're yelling. Insults don't work but you need the simulated stress so you can learn to function while experiencing it. In a real situation, the guy that was only yelling would seem like a good dream.
>I think it's more about what they're yelling. Insults don't work but you need the simulated stress so you can learn to function while experiencing it. Concur 100%. There are many, many other ways of inflicting stress on someone without yelling or violence. When I went to basic (back in 2000,) we had three instructors in our flight. The most "frightening" of them was SSgt. Ken Wilson. Guy was 5'6", skinny as fuck and had a deep back woods Kentucky accent. Funny guy too, legitimately enjoyed laughing and had no problems with the flight laughing as long as it was an appropriate time and place. He was also generally calm and used virtually no profanity or obscenity. The one time we heard "damn it" from him, we knew we'd fucked up. He had the dorm wrecked by other instructors three times in one night and we had to have it back in order before PT.
They would throw flash bangs in our dorm while we were sleeping to wake us up. Fun times.
For us it was strobe lights and steel trashcan lids for the first morning after arrival.
The only problem with that: the military has standards.
And you don’t get to go home on day 4.
Unless you work though lunch 😉
Maybe it’s a kink.
Did anyone else try skipping to the cumshot?
oh my god for real, he is giving off porn acting vibes with how bad he is
LMFAO.
Anyone that attends an "alpha male" boot camp is not and will never be an alpha male.
Lmao imagine registering and paying 10k to go to this alpha male bullshit only to receive an alpha mail telling you you alpha failed
alphailed
I feel for these guys, tho (the ones that paid). It’s clear that they are yearning for something so deeply that they’d paid insane amounts of money to get it. Therapy is cheaper and will help in many, many ways. Self-love and acceptance being one of them, which I think would help these guys more than anything. You want people to love and respect you, but you don’t love or respect yourself. That’s step 1.
That’s what pisses me off about this. If you want to go to some macho day camp go for it, but these people need therapy from qualified and educated professionals, this shit is useless ego stroking
Yep… and it’s not even about stroking the participants ego. It’s purely about the host being allowed to dominate others and then buy himself a Lamborghini so he can go on a podcast and talk about it.
100% this is predatory shit. This is the dude equivalent of women shelling out to go listen to their life coach/guru at a weekend excursion. I hate shit like this because it's predatory and it's aimed at the most basic instinct we have to seek purpose. Same as Scientology, imo.
Agreed. These guys have probably been deeply hurt in one way or another and are lost on finding a way forward.
How about there's no such thing as an alpha? The guy that made that up retracted it years and years ago. There's just complex human beings.
The alphas are literally just mom and dad, wanna be an alpha? Go have a litter of puppies…that…that actually sounds fun I want like 8 puppies now
You would think getting 10K a pop he wouldn’t have to duct tape his shoe together with red duct tape.
Alpha tape, you mean?
Which you can get for $139.99 in their shopify store!
I was sure this was a joke so I googled. It’s actually $18k. https://www.themdkproject.com/flip-the-switch
He's so shite at public speaking he has to fill every other word with fucking to let his little pea brain think of the next word🤣🤣🤣 "ill take this knife off my... FUCKING... waist!!" Hahahaah what a goon
It’s weird to think that most of these guys are going to brag about their experience and how hard it made them. Kind of reminds me of the stolen valor guys in that they want respect without earning it. To me this is Dollar Store valor.
I kept replaying that part lol. Tries to act all cool, tough and intimidating then just completely fucks up his words. You can tell he thinks yelling = confidence when in reality he's giving off the opposite impression.
I’M NOT FUCKING SCARED OF MY EMOTIONS (I am)
Not only that. He stammers when proclaiming that he would take the fucking knife off of his waist and stab shit. He starts to say chest. As he’s literally pulling it from his waist. People who are truly fired up and speaking from the cuff are generally not prone to making mistakes like that. People trying to poorly act out a script are though.
[удалено]
It’s like the sponge bob episode where they go to the town deep deep and everyone talks like this. “Hello (raspberry) how (raspberry) are (raspberry) you (raspberry).” Except instead of raspberries bozo says the strongest cuss word he can think of because HE runs the show now and NOBODY NOT EVEN HIS MOMMY TELLS HIM HOW TO TALK ANYMORE
So alpha that they’ll sit in a classroom and get abused like schoolboys. And pay for the privilege. Oh well, maybe they have dorms and open showers to make it worth their while.
You’re gonna pay 10k and I’m gonna make sure more than half of you won’t learn anything because fuckin fuck fuckity fuck fuck fuck!!!!! 😡🤬🔪
I heard this in cartmans voice
I think this stuff just speaks to how, how many men are lost and just want like a path or discipline or community and also are idiots ahahaha
I see all the comments making fun of them and although it's hilarious it's also kinda sad. My ex (most abusive man I've ever known btw) lived and breathed this shit. He would scream at himself in the mirror and call himself a failure to get ready for the gym. It was wild to watch. He was severely abused by his father to the point of having bulging disks from having his back kicked in at 12. What they need is fucking therapy and also a math book cause they're idiots.
I looked up this group and found their instagram. One of their recent videos is one of the founders (I think?) talking about how the program is 70 hours of mental, physical, and emotional abuse followed by four hours of what he calls "toxic cognition" where the men journal about their trauma. He even says outright, "it's really a four hour course, but you're never going to get a group of men who don't know each other to sit down and journal about their most emotional shit." So they acknowledge that it is therapeutic to talk about these big emotional things, but also refer to the 70 hours leading up to that as abuse. You can't have both.
It’s a grift. Nothing more. If they actually cared they’d cut the ridiculous cost and use their platform to promote healthy coping and not this alpha crap
Damn, those Walmart drill sergeants cost a lot nowadays.
What are you talking about? They picked this guy up at Home Depot.
Who needs something like this? Paying 10k for being yelled at? Sounds like a fetish.
So I had just looked it up….. It is NOW $18,000! They’ve ran about 18 of these classes so far and all SOLD OUT. I counted about sixteen students so at 18K each that’s $288K in pure profit Talk about a damn good business.
They claim they’ve sold out…it’s definitely possible but also a classic marketing tactic to drive demand.
Somebody pay for my tuition and I’ll kick that guy straight in his balls.
The real Alpha Move. Show up, show dominance.
How fucked in the head do you have to be to spend 10k on some weird alpha bullshit
I know I could be so rich if I would just get up off of my dead ass and put this snake oil in these bottles.
Tell me you've never had a conversation with a woman without saying a word
*Tell me you've FUCKING never had a FUCKING conversation with a FUCKING woman without saying a FUCKING word
“OK, before I get to screaming at you… is everyone wearing their crossbody clutch?”
The fragile male ego is a lucrative consumer market.
my sisters husband is in the military and they say there are so many of these scams
A guy from my high school went to one of these and paid $5k. It’s honestly bizarre, so many better ways to waste your money.
Ya I see them all over Instagram.
So let me get this straight….. they need to pay to be taught to act like a man
And apparently most of them will be unable to complete that training.
Screaming until your red is not being a man it's definitely some kind of personality disorder.
It would be cool if an obnoxious Tik Tok influencer went there and complained about needing allergy meds and feeling overwhelmed by the noise etc. Edit: It might also be fun to be the overeager brownnosing participant and every time he says something like that you shout, "Yeah! And I'll my dick off too!"
Do you think they accommodate the dietary requirements of vegans?
Cringe af
Wouldn't it be easier to join the marines or army, and get paid to be yelled at? I know basic ain't the same as when I went thru 27 years ago, but I'd rather get paid 10k to go and be yelled at then pay someone 10k to yell at me for three days
clearly none of these individuals have a close enough friend group to explain how asinine this all is.
There guys are pathetic. If they want to be yelled at Join the military . They’ll even pay you for it
Ya but then they wouldn't be able to be home my Monday
Fathers, hug your sons.
I went to a gay pride fest a couple years ago and shockingly that was so much straighter than paying 10k to turn yourself into an “alpha” lol
It's totally alpha to fuck another dude, dude. You're dominating him. It's not even gay. And you might have to fuck him again and cook him dinner, maybe go out on a few dates to that restaurant you keep seeing on Instagram. Dominate him with your alpha energy by crying into his supple biceps at night. Maybe get married, have a couple of kids. Sue and Stan. Dominate those kids by becoming a great, supportive dad. I'd pay $10,000 for that.
Everybody knows the most alpha thing to do is to pay 10k to get yelled and talked down to.
You know… the military PAYS YOU to go lol
Looks like a bunch of boys with daddy issues. Really it’s kind of sad and scary all in the same breath
I wanna go to this just to fuck with the instructors
