Moving directly from Red to Green without Blue results in a lack of social cohesion and stable relationships, this is something we're currently seeing in the new generation where green has created a echo chamber to allow kids to bypass blue entirely and go straight to Green. And so we have a generation of people who are in a self-serving mindset and don't see the communal layer of working together. This is not a new pattern, feminism is something that pops up over and over again in Cycles throughout all of human history. And every time there is a collapse back down to the lower levels all because green prevents the lower generation from learning the rules of blue, which they then eventuall learn to break them in a healthy way and go higher into green. Basically the new generation never learned how or why to break the rules of blue, and so they were able to bypass it entirely. And it's grossly obvious when observing at the average hypergamous woman.

We might be stuck in a pattern of civilizational collapse, and it's because our relationships are not as strong as they used to be. This video is a long-overdue answer to the question: why is promiscuity bad? The answer is kind of complicated. Let's start with this: why would promiscuous behavior, as pictured here, cause a collapse of civilization?

I put together this map. It's originally created by Ken Wilbur. This is just my easy-to-read version as a quick reference for developmental psychology, how people's minds develop individually from birth until wherever you stop, and how that affects the development of society and culture. Over here, there's this little grid that shows the individual mind and culture, individual behavior and society. The way that people's minds work is going to form a culture. The way that culture works is going to shape society. The way that society works is going to influence your mind, and the way your mind works will influence your behavior. All these things are interrelated.

So, society, which we depend on for everything we have, is based on the way that we relate to each other, which is falling apart very quickly due in large part to the acceptance of promiscuous behavior. There's a bunch of little heartbreaks and lower relationship strength. Our relationships also suffer because we don't understand each other, and that's something you can fix. Today's sponsor, Ground News, can help. You are on the internet right now, so you're confused. We all are. Algorithms make us feel bad, blame it on other people, and then attack them like idiots. This is not making us smarter. We need perspective.

If we remain unable to understand each other, we tend to do what we want instead of thinking about what's right. Basically, when people are allowed to do whatever they want, it degrades us from this stable model of courtship and relationship formation to this unstable one. In the old one, we could have stable marriages that were enforced by social conventions. In the new one, there are a few guys who get all the attention they can handle, so they don't commit to women. Therefore, most of the women get played and dumped over and over, and these guys get no attention. That makes everyone unhappy, and it's also really bad for stable marriages that produce children.

This model is only possible when people believe, "I can do whatever I want, and you can't judge me." If you allow people to behave like this, then they stop building this, and it turns into this. Modern people believe that the world is made of individuals. It is actually made of relationships. In the same way that a pile of bricks is not a building, in order for the building to work, the bricks have to be arranged in a certain way; they have to be connected. Once the bricks start saying, "I don't want to be part of a building anymore, I want to do me," then the building starts decaying. Then the other bricks say, "Well, if you're not doing your job, then I won't do my job," and we go from a building to a pile.

A big part of this decay is the sexual revolution, which is actually just a decay. It's reverse development. We are going from higher levels down to lower ones. I've been over this in previous videos. This one's called Saturday Scaries. Basically, all cultures have to grow through these levels. You can't skip stages. When a culture develops from this low impulsive stage to the rules and roles stage, they come up with strict social norms. They eventually grow to the achiever stage, which is like corporate keeping up with the Joneses, and eventually into this sensitive individualistic hippie stage where people start saying, "Hey man, everyone's unique, and we should all do what we want, bro." At that stage, they have a tendency to get rid of the rules at this stage. Then all of the new people who are born—because everyone's born at stage one—don't have any rules to learn to grow up to the next stages. It causes developmental arrest, and people get stuck down here. That's what we're experiencing right now. This is not moving beyond the rules; it's just getting rid of them.

Way back at the beginning of my channel, somebody asked me, "Why is promiscuity bad?" I didn't even have colored pencils yet. There's the old version of the drawing. I think she thought she got me. I don't think she expected this as an answer. This perception has become really common, and ironically, it's coming from a really high level of development. What they're saying is that we should all be allowed to do what we truly want and be who we are, and society's rules are just holding us back from our true selves. That might be true if both you and your partner or partners are at this level, but that's really, really rare. So if you are a young person growing up and you hear that message, that society is just holding us back from what we really want, you're not going to hear it at this level because you are not there yet. You're going to hear that message at the level that you are on, and it's going to sound like everyone else is trying to get their own way, so I'm going to get mine. The more that gets reinforced, the more you stay stuck, unable to learn the belonging and cooperation skills that are necessary to keep moving up the ladder.

In other words, if you want people to develop to these higher stages, which we do, they have to learn the rules before they can break them. If you want to do bike tricks, you have to start with the basics. You want to be a jazz musician? Start with Hot Cross Buns. Again, this message, it's saying, "Why bother learning the rules before breaking them?" and it's leaving a lot of people stuck. Those stuck people will not be able to keep civilization functioning. We have known this for a long time. Back in the 12th century, some guy named Salahudin Ayyubi, Liberator of Jerusalem—though that's probably debatable, but he sounds important—said, "If you want to destroy any nation without war, make adultery or nudity common in the young generation." Sound familiar?

This is from a website called Muslim Skeptic, and they need your support. Apparently, relying on Allah alone is not working out. The Muslim world is very much concentrated at this level right now—the rules and roles level, the control of self and others through faith and discipline level, the fundamentalism level—and that's because they experienced their own collapse a few centuries ago. I just spoke to Rudyard Lynch of What If Alt Hist about this. Check out his channel. He explained to me that history does not work like this. It's not, "Oh, feminism was invented yesterday, and now everyone's going to be happy forever." There really are a lot of fluctuations between feminine and masculine control of society, and if you get too far in either direction, things get bad. The Islamic world went too far in this direction and had an overcorrection, and now they are still hanging out up here. Some of this even happened recently. This was Iran in the '70s, and so was this. They look like they're from Wisconsin. That was before the Iranian Revolution. Let's not forget Afghanistan then and now. This lie that the more feminist things get, the happier everyone's going to be, just is not real life. In reality, hyper-feminization causes its own problems, and the reaction might not be fun.

What are these problems caused by glorious feminist freedom? Well, as women become liberated from men, which means getting materials that men produce without having to marry them, women experience a greater ability to choose, and they no longer have to settle for someone who is exactly on their level. Women become more free to pursue somebody who might have a full dance card and might not be interested in anything long-term. This matches the results we get from dating apps. Women seem not to be very interested in most men, at least not until women get to know those men. This more equitable style of pairing off is what happens in tight-knit communities, but those tight-knit communities come from living at this level, where the mentality is to do what is right in order to get what is good in life. Nobody wants to do that anymore.

They'd rather do what they want, and doing what you want means that nobody has any say over whether or not you stay in your marriage but you. So as soon as it feels bad, you're going to leave, and you're going to jump into this disaster where you're going to go look for the best you can get. You're going to convince yourself that this guy almost married you even though he didn't. This leads to a small percentage of the population—mostly the powerful, smarter, and richer guys—winning, while everyone else becomes less happy.

People at the sensitive individualist level wanted to move beyond the rules and live their best lives, but they didn't realize that you still need some structure. All the messaging coming from media, universities, and culture says you are a special, unique individual, and nobody should be able to tell you what to do. As a result, nobody is learning the basics of how to be part of something that works. It’s all about "me, me, me," and that’s what’s killing us.

On the other hand, China has actually increased its marriage rate for the first time in nine years. How did they manage that? The government has been campaigning to promote marriage. What this does to the minds of Western women is something else entirely. Yes, even Grandma. These are all just TikToks that I collected over time. They were all very popular. This is what women are saying to each other.

Here we go. A woman says, "All that work and what did it get me?" because she pulled her celebrity crush and doesn’t like regular people anymore. She pulled her celebrity crush but could not keep him because she's not at his level, and now that is her new highest setting. He’s all she can think about. Here's another woman who wants to replace her current guy with the celebrity crush, even though he was never going to commit.

Here's a woman at her bachelorette party in 10 years, planning to leave a man at the altar if her old flame comes back. Another woman says she's forcing herself to go out with a good guy while waiting for the toxic one. Almost all girls have that one guy that, no matter what, if he were to text her at any point, she would be like, "Yes, let's be together." There's always that one guy. It’s either history or he’s just everything she wants, and they’re probably not together and don’t even chat. But the minute he does, she’s ready to be with him again.

This girl talks about comparing everyone else to this one guy. She had a situationship with someone she bonded with so well that it changed how she views romantic partners. Now she talks to someone new and thinks, "Yeah, but they’re not him." She doesn't even mean to do it, but it naturally happens. This other woman can only talk about the one time a homeless guy took her on a boat. This is how much women love the guy who is never coming back. They prefer him to the guy who proposed twice. I have been the guy who’s never coming back. There are girls I could have called whenever I wanted; I just didn't want to.

So, the point is, when people stop following the traditional paths of relationship formation and marriage due to the prevalence of promiscuity, it creates instability. A few men end up with many women, while many men end up with none, leading to widespread unhappiness and societal decay. Without the pressure and structure of traditional norms, relationships fail to form stable units necessary for a functioning society. The shift from collective to individualistic thinking erodes the foundational relationships that hold civilization together, leading to its collapse.

The thing is, why aren't these men seeking out single conservative women?  There are a lot of single conservative women. Some of these women are marriage-crazy. And husband-crazy. And many of them are so desperate for a husband they are losing their minds.

A lot of these men who want to get married and live by traditional values, are chasing women who want nothing to do with traditional values.

So then the agenda becomes "How can we control and manipulate free spirited Liberal women to do what we want them to do? How can we make Liberal women behave in the way we want them to?"

Of course they should be frustrated doing this.

You cannot force a woman, or a person rather....... who doesn't want anything to do with tradition, religion or people controlling their life, to just bend to your will. Especially if they are an Atheist.

Now I could see the government trying to work on indoctrinating children/teens/college students raised by Liberal parents or indoctrinating children/teens/college students raised by Atheist parents. Change what is being portrayed in the media, on TV, what goes viral, etc. so that Liberal children/teens/college students become indoctrinated at younger ages into wanting traditional values.

But you aren't going to indoctrinate and bend the minds of a full blown adult Liberal or Atheist women past a certain age.

If you want to manipulate, control, radicalize, brainwash, re-program, condition, make someone bend to your will, *all of the synonyms of controlling other people here* etc. ....you have to do it when they are younger.

But is this something we should do to the youth? Will this really end up "making people happy and end societal decay" as you claim?
