For real. This dude could have just said "the lone wolf alpha-male archetype is rooted in truth" and then wrote a listicle supporting his points and he would have gotten his argument across so much better. He formatted it as a long-winded essay for no apparent reason but his choice of format actually inhibits understanding his point, it doesn't enhance its understandability in any way.

This is very clear in the military: a lot of brotherhoodship and fun in soldiers group, very little in officers. And both dont mix.
