@Roy agreed. 
 

Although he does seem to have intellectual openness to some extent. He comes across different and somewhat more aware than most other streamers/content creators. Might be that he is very thorough in thinking through everything, instead of mindlessly aping the status quo. Although he does do that, he seems less constricted in that trap than most.

@Max_V I was a Starcraft player back in the day so I used to see Destiny and his content a lot.

It's been remarkable how much he's transitioned over the years, but I would still peg him as firmly Orange.

He entertains some green/yellow ideals but it's very minimal, he seems extremely stuck in debating, arguing, semantics, and being "right" all the time.

It doesn't take much observation to notice he's an extremely neurotic person.

He is fully engaged in the whole Youtube circle jerk of platform wars, judging others, and "VS" debates. Not the behavior of a systems thinker. 

 

He is obviously motivated by a silly anger towards people who want progressive change, even tho they aren't right all the time.

btw what race? I was masters with terran before I quit.

You sound like you mainly watched him back in the day, and not recently. His views change a lot.

Although I agree that I sense some part of him liking dunking on people

GM Terran towards the end of HotS. I stopped playing when LotV came out and switched to CS:GO for fun. Slowed down a lot on gaming recently.

Not really, he has debated and tried to argue against progressives much more than conservatives in recent times and was agreeing with some guy who was mocking Bernie's heart attack. Feels miss-placed to argue that much against people who want medicare for all, which would save lives, on the specifics.

@tenta Tbh you can only argue with conservatives so much before it gets repetitive.

Thank's for quoting Zappa here, his work has been very important to me. I've been listening and trying to understand him for years.

He was way ahead of his time, he understood american culture and critize it like nobody else and he was authentic as fuck. 

A glimpse of yellow yes, but still I feel he had many prejudices against many things and he stood with his perspective for years.

But its ok for him, he was super into his creative work, I don't think he minded much about expanding his perspective.

Also I have the weird feeling that he's still alive.

I saw a variation of this presentation at work. It’s a bit jargon heavy, but basically, a new strategy for cybersecurity is to develop tactics based on generating different models of hackers based on the behavior of previous cyber attacks. Does this hacker behave more like, for example, a lone wolf like Edward Snowden or a hacktivist group similar to Anonymous? Then adjust your tactics accordingly. The presenters are two PhDs from Lockheed Martin, and this strategy is a very cool example of yellow thinking. (I felt a bit cheeky during the work presentation and asked, what if the attacker doesn’t act like the model? ? They gave a very yellow answer: Improve the model.)

Do schools truly prepare kids for a rapidly changing world? From the misty mountains of Bhutan to the concrete jungle of Singapore, brave schools are embarking on a journey to evolve the idea of what it means to be educated.
