  1. @Preety_India Hes talking about closing the Poles, as in climate change, he wants to melt the ice caps completely! apocalypse 2030! yeeeehaaa
  2. The problem is conservativsm is more regressive than conserving. I agree we need to hit the breaks sometimes but we dont need to make abortion illegal, that doesnt stabilize society at all.
  3. Progression is not always a straight line... It comes with backlash and unintended consequences... Just look at Trump. You might say US is better now than ever but at the same time its the worst its ever been... But would you rather live in the 1960s. For every step forward theres going to be someone who liked their comfort zone.
  4. Did the grass grow because of the sunshine or the rain?
  5. Dont feed the troll. Wait for the banhammer of justice.
  6. Pretty much what I wanted to get across. A way with words you have.
  7. Do you remember when you sold out the Messiah for 30 pieces of silver?
  8. Haha, what if you had no choice? Would you rather starve? Im not super into Wilber, I like this video though. Crazy how its from 2006, dudes been around.
  9. I dont see how this opposes Actualized, I mean Leo is very big on wisdom and actuality and not mental masturbation. Besides, life was simple living in agrarian China, there was no planetary concern or climate change knocking on the door. Its easier to chill out when all you need is to milk the yaks and plant the rice.
  10. I dont quite get what you mean? Rephrase? Do you mean YouTube got corrupted by Orange? For sure. But try going to CNN and saying "Hey I want to be on your show tonight". Instead you can just upload a video and there you have it, of course it takes some marketing skills though.
  11. I just realized Youtube is pretty Green, pure expression in a non-hierarchial fashion, in Stage Orange you had to be someone to get on TV, now you can just upload yourself, as you are, broadcast yourself.
  12. But individual, structure and system are not separate, its holistic, so everything you do has an impact. Otherwise we might as well go back to Orange and say "screw it, doesnt matter, Im just an individual"
  13. So the Yellow lifestyle is more like Orange? I dont quite get what youre trying to say. Isnt Yellow supposed to be ecologically conscious? What makes you say you cant be both sustainable and working on the root cause solutions? pg. 282 Spiral Dynamics: Mastering Values, Leadership and Change "•favours appropriate technology, minimal consumption, and a deliberate effort to avoid waste and clutter" But theyre flexible, not rigid. I think Ken Wilber said something like "One minute extremely organized and put together and then all of sudden you seem them having McDonalds" ... Flex/Flow 2:33
  14. Im not saying she is Yellow, but this is "living while being conscious of your ecological footprint" which is a Yellow value.
  15. Its not triggering because its not even true. Diversity has nothing to do with societal collapse. Old debunked right-wing talking point. Next!
  16. Humanity still manages to surprise me everyday, maybe I'm too optimistic.
