Who is this mysterious authority figure in the lives of beta men who has so badly let them down?

In the entry, “A response to the Roissyites,” I wondered:

All these guys are acting as if there has been some respected social authority for the last several decades telling them how to live, and they’ve dutifully followed it, and it’s not working. Where is there such authority? The very character of modern society is that it’s in turmoil, all authoriy has been thrown down except for PC which people don’t believe in. So who are these respected authorities in which you had so much faith?

Richard P.has an interesting answer.
