Nah. They never cared. It's been an epistemic shitshow since forever.

False. You just aren't educated on the case history. The earliest alien spacecraft was recovered in Europe. -
As if anyone in politics cares about facts. What a naive notion.

How does one even get McDonalds in a private airplane? That requires extra special effort just to eat garbage on the fly. In a sense Trump is the epitome of Americans: a vulgarian with no class or taste despite having wealth. Corruption in a single pic. -

Don't forget that all of these narcs will stab each other in the back in the end. No honor amoung flaming egotists. -
Well, I don't go out anymore. It's a lot of work.

No. That's neat.

Anti-wokeness is dumber than wokeness. -

I prefer to not over-explain my sayings. Ponder them for yourself.

After 4 years of Trump we will devolve backwards into lizards.

@Hardkill Focus! You are losing your poise.

@Hardkill Dude, focus on your life purpose. Don't get distracted by human noise. This is life lesson #1. Go create something beautiful.

Why not? Being miserable is optional. Your grandparents survived WW2. You can handle 4 years of clownery.

Because stupidity and selfishness is self-defeating. You don't need to destroy Trumpism, it will destroy itself from sheer incoherence.

If only people knew my sext game.

Yes, it's hard to predict the depths of human stupidity. One wants to be nice and optimistic, but then one is wrong.

Hey, ya'll, I need your help! I want to create a comprehensive list of video examples of prototypical stage Blue thinking. This is not meant to humiliate or demonize stage Blue. It's meant to be an educational tool for people learning about Spiral Dynamics. So towards that end, scour Youtube and find all the videos you can which exhibit stage Blue thinking. Try to find videos which are short and sweet. Conservative talk show hosts offer tons of Blue material, but also try to find other unique examples. The more diversity we can display here, the better. Try to find examples from various cultures: Europe, Middle East, Asia, Indonesia, Japan, Russia, Africa, South America, etc. We will create a mega-thread like this for every stage in the Spiral, from Red to Turquoise. But for now, let's just focus on Blue. Each week I will start a new mega-thread topic for the next stage. Do not start a political debate in this thread! It is not our goal here to defend our personal political positions or to judge any stage, but simply to compile examples. Thanks for your help! I'm excited to see what kind of juicy stuff you dig up. Try to be selective with your choices. This can turn into a really cool list.

A crypto crash is def coming, so watch your asses. Don't think that all this hype will stay around forever. The crypto grifters are griftin hard.

The answer to your concern is very simple: All humans are evil.

No No. Things don't need to change. All of it has always been core to science. You are making the mistake of cherrypicking science looking backwards, counting as valid only those things which got verified. But that's not science. That's only half of science. Full science must include all the stuff that failed to validate. Science is not just a collection of all the right answers. Science is the entire process of understanding reality, including all the dead ends. This is what buffoons like Prof Dave don't understand.
