human males have a tendency to form hierarchies of power, this can be seen even in elementary shool kids

That guy is an autist who interprets things way too literally. People use the term "alpha" and "beta" to loosely categorize dominant high status dudes and meek nerds respectively. Does such a dichotomy exist in humans? Yes, of course it does, did you think every single male in human society has the same status?

What if some kid is super strong but smart enough to see that there is a hierarchy power game going on, and doesn't want to participate?

the alpha/beta terminology is derrived from already obsolete theory of wolf behaviour in packs, so no.

Hierarchies of alphas and betas only emerge in groups of captive wolves. Comparing them to humans is silly... until you realize that humans are also captive. Our cage is society

you are always participating, whether you choose to or not. someone who chooses not to will either sink to the bottom, or be propped up by others.

No no no.
There are warrior, magicians, politicians and npcs.
Npcs are average joes.
Warriors are people who are usually meatheads.
Politicians are manipulation masters, excel in social environments.
Wizards are people who are usually nerds.
There are magical warriors, political mages and political warriors too.
Politicians tends to be rulers but are sometimes challenged by or dependent to wizards.

You participate whether you like it or not. You have a certain amount of social status and there's nothing you can do about it

He's kind of right, considering that the alphas of modern society are people like Gates and Bezos that would have been traditionally been considered betas, but were able to be competitively successful in business. However, there are definitely people that have a tendency to strive for status more than others, which is what I think the term "alpha" usually is in reference to.
