> Real leaders of real companies don't have to be predatory. It is a screaming confession of incompetence. There's a certain toxic element of business culture that preaches dominance as a virtuous thing, ether overtly, or through dubious terminology/beliefs in ideas like "alpha males." It argues that if you aren't dominating someone, then they necessarily must be dominating you in this interaction. It is an extremely reductionistic view that has trickled down into certain parts of Weird Internet, too.
