AwakenwithJP and leap backwards in spiral dynamics

What a recontextualization, eh?

Definitely. He really did have a vibe at first that he was lovingly jabbing at spiritual new agey idiosyncrasies and comical minor problem behaviors in communities of spiritual people.

It's like poking fun at the "bragging about transcending ego" irony. And jokingly making fun of spiritual ego... which most spiritual people can have minor issues with and go through phases of.

Like I said, you just can't really be funny with satire if you have no love for what you're satirizing.

Yup. He tricked me too.

I thought he was a hippie at first, so it was funny.

Then I realized he's just ignorant and closedminded.

Yep. And in the end, he's attracted the audience he deserves.

I first saw him several years back as a key contributor at a SAND conference and just figured he was legit spiritual. Some of his skits were funny around that time as he was poking fun at the spiritual ego and things like that. Then one day I got on YT and saw one of his thumbnails had Biden in ugly fluorescent light and Trump right next to him in a nice yellow glow. lol. That was my first clue. I figured maybe it was just a fluke with images or something, but that was soon proven false. Strange AF.

@Leo Gura The content you're sharing lately has been really engaging and thought-provoking. I’d love to know, from what cognitive and Spiral Dynamics stage are you offering these insights? I remember you once mentioned how Jordan Peterson might subtly push us into a 'stage Green shadow' without actually developing into a more post-rational stage, and that stuck with me. It seems like you've been growing really fast—I'm curious to hear how your cognitive and Spiral Dynamics development is progressing.
