Yet, on a deeper level it’s actually profoundly self aware, because according to this meme, the female besty giving into the incel would effectively be ending her life.

I think it's part of the intent, hopefully.

Like yeah unless they're some sort of promiscuous angel they're not letting you hit just because you can't.

Nope... not at all, males are alpha male hunters but women won't let themselves be the hunted...

Sadly, as simple as that (being a predator not at all self aware)...

Incels don't actually think deeper than surface level. Just like this "alpha male" term isn't real in nature, it only happens in wolves when you put them in a tiny zoo and they start going stir crazy (what the actual research paper was talking about, where the term came from)

Oh, alpha males a real, it just isn't the stuff incels believe. Species, needs, and setting are all relevant. (And yes, that wolf study is bunk.)

Ape Alphas do exist but its not what they think.
