Introduction

We often talk of what it means to be an Alpha and that usually involves things like your SMV and it's contributing behaviors called Frame and Game.

But there is a simple litmus test:

"The Alpha never gets played."

What does it mean to be beta?

Well, the Blue Pill is the globalist emotional indoctrination process (tv, school, etc) that is gradually suppressing the consciousness of people worldwide. The ultimate plan is a world of easily programmed beta slaves or as they say "providers". We need not discuss this as it's a given on Red Pill.

So the first level of getting played is being played by the Blue Pill process itself. If you failed to sense the Blue Pill is a Game being played on you then you become emotionally connected to your brainwashing and end up a SJW or simply the passive Nice Guy™ with no clue.

The next level upon which you can get played is when the Blue Pill convinces you to be a White Knight. The White Knight believes he's an Alpha because he defends women and fights for their causes. But again, he is being played only now the Game player isn't the impersonal Blue Pill emotional indoctrination process but instead an actual female or females. He still has no clue.

Then there are the PUA players, the guys trying to imitate Game in order to just simulate the behaviors of better men. This isn't really true Game either because it's coming from a weak Frame. In true Game play one has a winning offense and a strong defensive Frame. If your Frame is lacking like it does for PUA's then you inevitably lose the Game that you started. The PUA ends up played and being beta in the end. Another fail.

Finally there is the guy who has solid Frame and tries his best to play good Game and simply gets outplayed. All you can do is maintain Outcome Independence and accept that sometimes you lose and must do better next time. The near Alpha is always improving himself and learning from past mistakes.

Conclusion

The Alpha is the guy who does not get played.

When a guy who normally is Alpha loses it's a blow to his status and if you let that go on it will gradually force you downward.

So your Alpha status demands that you continue to win the Games.

But at the same time a single loss doesn't send you to the bottom it just knocks you down a notch. It's like MMA fighters who go up and down in the rankings only the Alpha status is more abstract because it involves subtle Game awareness.
