You guys should be ashamed of yourselves for this pathetic campaign of character assassination. One day BRTD, the mob will turn on you and you’ll end up in the ranks of Enzinge.

Seeing as how I'm not a Nazi nor a sex offender, no I won't be ending up like Einzige.

The title stays the same...it is the definition that changes BRTD.  Taking pictures of womens’ feet without their consent could land you in trouble.

"Beta" insults are bad and immature. They are also typical for the far-right. We shouldn't drop that low.

Using "beta" as an insult presupposes an incredibly problematic view of masculinity and how society is structured. The original "alpha wolf" study has been discredited, and even if it were how animal pack dynamics worked, applying it to human social relationships is reductive to the point of farce. It holds men to unreasonable behavioral standards, which is just another entry on the long list of ideas that contribute to toxic masculinity, which hurts everyone, regardless of gender.

There are some areas where I think people on the left could benefit from not being so focused on civility and good behavior or whatever, but this is not one of them.

Definitely not. If he did what those women said he did (even though those are sins and unethical), it still shows that he is quite physically strong, so no.

An admitted beta attacking someone else by calling them a beta ...

Either its not an insult or the OP is worthy of the same derision as K.

Circumstantially the answer appears to be yes, which is why the refuted allegations against him are so ludicrous.

No. A beta would have withdrawn his nomination; Kavanaugh is a fighter.

Voted no because this particular kind of Greek letter classification (whether "ironic" or not) is disgusting and a self-proclaimed liberal should know better.

No, betas have gills bcuz they breathe the low amount of oxygen in stagnant waters like their homes in the rice paddies of Southeast Asia.

Kavanaugh has lungs so he is not a beta

This on top of being an attempted rapist AND being allowed to hang out all the time with the popular kids. I'm a neurotic spaz and still was able to by my first year of college. Consentually.

I'm only saying no because the alpha-beta dichotomy isn't something that actually exists in nature. However, Brett Kavanaugh strikes me as someone who would have been a Redpiller/Incel if the internet existed back in his high school/college days.
