Spiral Dynamics Stage Yellow Examples Mega-Thread

[Jordan Welsh]

 

This discussion is pretty instrumental being based on what theoretical physicist Leonard Mlodinow describes as elastic thinking comprising of the embracing and interpreting the world through multiple points of view, collective diversity and self-reflection as well as transforming human-biology through enriching and diversifying your perspective through life long learning.

Warning: Get ready for paradoxical twists and nuanced insights challenging unconscious assumptions and beliefs through eye opening philosophical exploration.

I'd peg Sam at yellow and Joseph at Turquoise.

What ya think?

Latest entry to Eric Weinsteins podcast the Portal. One of the best examples of a stage yellow conversation I have ever seen on a Podcast. I hope you all enjoy this as much as I did. Rarely get to see conversations that display meta analysis at this level.

Profound Insight into the Shadow of Yellow.

If people become too intellectual they will see everything is information, therefore the people in power could try to euthanize the 'dumb,' aka general population.

Summary: be warned when society enters stage yellow, euthanasia is possible. 

(This shows that even stage yellow people can be focused on survival) 

(edit: I mean by euthanasia as in killing the person or making it that the person has to go toward the Government to see if they are 'smart enough to reproduce')

Very comedic but very integral

Takaway... Be as truthful and authentic in communcating with others as possible = leads to Decentralized Collective Intelligence = solve all these massive issues

@Carl-Richard fuck, he's everywhere lol

I know, it's a debate on Twitch, but bear with me. It's very civil, and I think it's a cool example:

54:26-57:26 The guy talking (the moderator a.k.a Destiny) tries to introduce the debaters to tier 2 stage yellow spiral dynamics thinking, and then MindWaves retaliates with tier 1 stage orange thinking (discarding the opponent a.k.a Pxie's tier 1 stage green framework), because that is the primary character trait of the stages in tier 1: they adamantly discard all other frameworks, both higher and lower stages.

It's very apparent when MindWaves at 57:11 says: "Sure, I guess-  ...yeah, so I have no interest in working within your framework, because I think you're wrong" *chuckle*

Do we have a Yellow discussion regarding the current changing life conditions with the virus and to discuss future systems that will help us get out of the economic drop?

These 3 videos don't necessarily focus on talking about future systems, but current issues and problems and what to do.

I would say this following video more answers your question (towards the end of it).  From my understanding, he thinks that we need to move into a Decentralized Collective Intelligence.  And one of the most important ways to do that, according to him, is to be as honest, authentic, and accurate in our interactions with others and how we relate our own perspectives and how we see and feel things to be or be true.  This then reinforces others to do that same and this results in much better collective sense-making and seeing what's really going on in the world.

I don't know if that's what he's exactly saying, but that's what I god.

Here's the video.

Green feminist evolving to stage Yellow

 

[Carl-Richard]

@Raphael Damn. I remember seeing that video in my recommended videos, but I never clicked it because I assumed it would just be another close-minded feminist. Guess I was wrong.

you'll find this interesting if you’re yellow or above
