The Walking Dead show is a great example of modern society regressing to purple -> red.
At the beginning small groups of people are fighting against zombies, after a while it evolves to point where other groups of people becomes greater danger than zombies (purple). The emerge to RED happens by group called The Saviors. Quote from fandom.com:
"The Saviors were a group of survivors founded with the goal of restoring civilization to the world. Under their charismatic authoritarian leader Negan, they enacted a brutal regime to subjugate any and all communities they came across in the area surrounding Washington, D.C. through murder and brutality to coerce survivors to provide a steady stream of food and other goods."
Especially Negan (already once mentioned on this thread) is a great example of RED leader, quote from fandom.com:
"Negan is shown to be a charismatic, cocky, manipulative, brutal, and ferocious man with a sarcastic, inappropriate sense of humor. Negan is a brilliant strategist and a strong, effective leader, having kept hundreds of people alive and is worshipped by many and feared by others." -maybe minus the "a brilliant strategist".
