This really captures the spirit of a generation. People will look back at this era with amusement (or disapointment)

Soy >>>> milk

LOL, toxic but definitely a good laugh.

Except when you're empathizing with the veteran soldiers! Or businesses that have been hurt financially! 

God Leo you're so unpatriotic

I would say the more empathetic you are the better you will be as a politician, of course it has to be balanced with wisdom and strong leadership. I think Ben is just a hurt little child who is scared of emotion.

He's doubling down on it lately

This is a small youtuber I watched a long time ago, he had a very hard childhood and was always stuck in the victim mindset in his videos talking about how much he was suffering. I'm happy to see he's gotten past that and is motivated in stage orange.

Would Dante from the Devil May Cry series be considered stage orange? He's coolish? He's a show off and is witty with quips. Can we do fictional examples as well or does it have to be real life?

That's exactly how I start my day, down to the pink pajamas and heart-shaped bowl.

Actually just watching Leo's Stage Red video, Dante definitely has some red aspects. Not to the point of someone like Kratos, but still.

The YouTube channel Meet Kevin is a great channel for learning about real estate. While I'm not a huge real estate person, there is a lot you can get from his channel including his over all personality. I would characterize him as a very healthy orange with a some green 

Here is his channel:

And here is someone who is describing what he's like behind the scenes: 

Idk how much of it is true since you can't ever be sure with the internet but if it is all true, this guy is the epitome of healthy orange.

Leo mentioned the movie "Lord of War" in recent SD Red video. Was a good movie from what I remember so I went back to watch it again. There is a scene near the end of the movie with a quote that encapsulates toxic Stage Orange perfectly. The main character Yurie and his wife Eva are arguing after she finally discovers that he sells arms for a living. As the conversation heats up Yurie shouts;

"There is NOTHING illegal about what I do!" Eva responds, "I don't care if it's legal, it's wrong!"

This represents the epitome of rationalization that an unhealthy Orange persona will create. They will cleverly look for all loop holes they can find, and bend and stretch the rules as much as possible without (hopefully) breaking them. They are aware of the exploitation and collateral damage of their actions to a degree, but as long as they benefit and are far enough removed from the chain of causation then it's A OK in their book.

"Strategic selfishness" let's call it. Is this spot on @Leo Gura?  

[Leo Gura]

@Roy Perhaps the most tragic scene in Lord of War is when Cage sacrifices his own brother in an arms deal.

Even though the Christian was being foolish, the Mario is real point was interesting in the Amazing Atheist video (although they contradicted it later). I think it was Leo's intelligence video he talked about Mario 64 and the way it was real. Not physically, but it's a game that exists and the 3d models and physics exist inside it. I'm wondering if that's what the person met. I've had the immaturity of the Christian and later the Amazing Atheist in that video before watching actualized.org. I can empathize with both even though they're both naive.

Armored Skeptic is very stage orange rational too.

Sex, drugs and Rock'n'Roll at its finest! There you go.

80s proto-rap rock song criticizing religious Blue and American expansionism from worldcentric high-Orange:

"Whoever we are
Wherever we're from
We shoulda noticed by now
Our behavior is dumb
And if our chances
Expect to improve
It's gonna take a lot more
Than tryin' to remove
The other race
Or the other whatever
From the face
Of the planet altogether"

[Dragon Liege]

I'd say T Series is stage orange.

Casey Neistat I think is stage orange from what I know of him.

Stage Orange Advertising.

Spyro 3 had a bunch of shit stuffed into it. I remember Leo talking about blowing out your palette. I think it got really close to using the entire disc storage.
