I agree with some of the ideas, but it sounds like a beta acting unplugged. His hamster spins those graphs out of his arse. Apparently, alpha with a little beta is his idealistic conclusion. Huge breakthrough. But for what goal? ONS? FWB? LTR?

He's saying if you are super alpha you can scare a lesser (perceived) valued girl off, either directly or she will indirectly think you're too good for her.

Calibrate and throw in some beta manouvres as necessary. This really changed my game as I went too far on the alpha spectrum back when I swallowed the pill. But it ultimately comes down to what kind of girls you're messing with for it to make any sense to you.

If you're fucking with highly secure girls this will be gibberish. I've noticed as I've improved myself drastically and spent time on campuses younger girls can be pretty nervous around me.

It seems unnecessarily convoluted to think of it as 'acting beta' when he's just talking about building comfort.

Either way, the main point seems to be about selling a shitty overpriced e-book which is endorsed on amazon with fake 5-star reviews. I wouldn't listen to such a person very intently.

All of his ebooks have gone up for free I have them all on my kindle app officially through amazon without a dime. He tweets out the sales.

I like his blog and his books I guess there's a reason no one else links to him then.
