Interview from Tubby Love, guy in the video:

“TJ: What kind of spiritual influences do you have in your life? What pulls you?

TL: *singing* “Jah Love is everywhere!” Jah man.

TJ: So Rastafari?

TL: I believe that Rastafari is one way to say it, but it’s the same. It’s all the same to me.

TJ: Just God. Just Jah.

TL: Yup I and I. Like I said earlier, I’m a sprit inside of a body, and I feel like the breath of life, Aloha, the breath of life is in everything. Everything is alive. Everything is moving. These walls around us are made out of trees. You know what I’m saying? It’s all connected. I believe in the connection of all things, and I believe that’s what I and I is. I am this, I am that, I am comma that. So the same breath that is in me is in all beings. I and I! “

Rachel Carson, considered by many to be the catalyst for the modern environmental movement:

Notice the difference in paradigm between the scientist and Rachel Carson. Great example of how and why Green emerges.

A bit of a longer example, but contains many Green memes throughout if you pay attention.

Notice:

  • Lyrical themes of the song (healing trauma, authenticity, positive affirmations, freedom over fear and conformity)
  • The sign language interpreter (inclusivity for non abled-bodied people)
  • The “letting go” communal ceremony in the middle of the song
  • The sign off message about “changing the world” as the band leaves

A good example of how David Packman (mostly Green) misunderstands Blue:

Key thing to notice here: the lack of understanding of why Blue cares about Bibles in hotel rooms and how that makes sense to them. For Blue, God is the ultimate authority figure. God's word is Law. God is how you create order in society and know what is right or wrong. Therefore from Blue's perspective, without God, you are morally lost and lawless.

Notice also that Blue is not completely wrong about this. The whole reason so many people follow this stage Blue strategy is because IT WORKS. Of course it is also very limited and eventually needs to be transcended.

Such a good example. Showcases almost every single Green meme.
 

Key memes: anti-materialism, inner happiness, health and wellness, empire, anti-elites, leveling power dynamics, back to the earth, anti-rat race, invitation not condemnation
