I don't really get it

So I'm watching Mad Men (really fucking gay show btw, it's boring af) and I guess this Don Draper (regardless of his flaws) is supposed to represent the ultimate alpha male (or at least what a modern man thinks of as "alpha") but really he's just a passive aggressive faggot.

>brb boss hittin' on my wife
>brb bitch to my wife about it instead of confronting my boss because i have no balls
>brb get him drunk and run up a bunch of stairs with him so he throws up hehe that will show him

I just don't get it. The guy is a protypical nu-male. Totally ruins all immersion. In reality, he'd be destroyed in early the late 50's- early 60's macho society.

>DUDE WEEDBOOZETOBACCOCASUALSEX LMAO

Of course the show is about nu-males for nu-males

It's supposed to show how "alpha males" are "dumb faggots" too.

>supposed to represent the ultimate alpha male

not really

>late 50s - early 60s macho society
kek, what the fuck are you on about

Yeah, that's about the gist of it.

The alpha/beta/omega hierarchy is mostly bullshit and being obsessed with it makes you even worse of a human being.

Embrace nihilism and chill the fuck out.

This is bad bait and you should feel bad

The show was written by women.

I wrote the show off as "muh patriarchy" trash after 6 episodes.

Watch The Sopranos instead.

>grew up in the great depression
>instead of going to college ends up on the front lines in WW2

yeah, you're right, not macho at all. These guys were total pusscakes.

Please faggot, I remember my grandad well enough to remember that he didn't take shit from lil' prissy faggots and he wasn't a passive aggressive little fuckwit. If he had some shit to say to you, he said it and people from his generation that didn't we're derided as pussies.

That's the fucking point. Fuck.

The show is bad bait and you should feel bad for liking it.

>skinny 13 year old faggot normies won't stop posting on your boards
>ever

Just go to reddit kid, go and don't come back

He fought in Korea and he's a deserter.

>people who look up to Don/think you're 'supposed' to look up to Don when even the first couple of episodes establish him and people like him as hollow, miserable pieces of shit

>the point is that Don is a faggot and everyone are a bunch of weasels that do shit behind each others backs

that's generally called a "soap opera". Guess I was mistaken thinking that the show would be something with a little more substance. I guess I should know better when all the fans of the show are women.

>he fought in Korea

literally the same generation

>he's a deserter

that makes a lot of sense actually, the dude has absolutely no backbone

The whole "point" is that he's an alpha male on the surface but has an entire lifetime of emotional hang-ups and ptsd and family issues and a drinking problem that's bringing him down.

>"I don't watch Mad Men," he said. "I think it's basically soap opera, and if I want soap opera, I watch Revenge. That show is crazy, but they have great clothes."

kek MM fanbois BTFO

>the whole point is that he's a faggot that can't handle any amount of responsibility

yes, we've established that. So why am I watching it?

>caring for the opinions of this permapleb

>he thinks Sopranos is le mra propaganda

Spoiler alert retard it's a feminist show

Draper is just like the ads he makes. Pretty face and a looming void behind it.
