Stage red is about materialism, not aggression.

Nope, materialism is more orange than red. Aggression is more red than orange.

That's because the stereotypes are wrong.

This is a story about how a stage red character was brought up, from his environment to his upbringing. How do we get a person like this to move up the spiral? You get him into a church, get him to start believing in something bigger than himself. Good luck Malcolm. 

Malcolm by G Herbo 

Once upon a time around the Southside

A young black man grew up in a house

Had a pops he never knew, with a mom thats strung out

His granny careless just about, say he'll never make it out

Of the hood and had a handful of aunties that could vouch

Young n**** named Malcolm, all his homies called him Malc'

Big brother off in college, Malcolm took another route

From gang bangin', caine slangin', moms threw him out the house

Stuck on probation, on and off since 13, been in and out

Soon as he turned 17, s*** got super wild

Still a juvenile, he just totin' Rugers now

He shotin' now, streets got him, Malcolm ruthless now

.........

Sully from the netflix series top boy is a PERFECT example. Man don't feel empathy at all, just ready to kill.

This 2Pac clip was on the Green Megathread.

I get it. What he is sayin is green, but there is something beneath that.

He doesn't sound like your typical green-hippie.

 

 

Is tough to put Pac in the spiral.

We was sent to jail for rape (unhealthy red).

He had the work ethic and discipline to become one of the greats: Blue

He loved the money, girls and fame: Orange.

And a lot of his music is red. And some green.

And he had some green values.

 

But check out this clip.

The words, the philosophy, the content, is green.

But it doesn't sound as green.

If some green-weak-hippie said the same words, probably wouldn't resonate that much.

But if you say this words, with that red attitude/swag, it hits different.
 

A lot of this green activists, (vegans, climate change advocates...) don't have a healthy developed red, so people get tired of those people.

They are seen as mere complainers. As weak.

They lack that visceral passion. They seem dead inside. Just focusing on some external ‘higher’ cause for validation.

Like Peterson say, people who can't even clean their fucking room.

And if they have some hate, or passion, it seem ungrounded, and unhealthy, like Greta.

 

Another example could be Mike Tyson. The fact he has that red in him that makes him lovable.

Or imagine that the stars align and Tate became green. That would be powerful. 

 

They say woman want a beast. And then domesticate that beast.

Well, that red-green combo really hits home. 

You can see it in guys like 2Pac or Mike Tyson.

Loved by women. Adored by men.
 

Green values, with red swag visceral passion.

Alex and his droogs are sure Red (and for some people,a really unhealthy version of it)

About the goverment and the ludovico experiment,i would say they mix red with blue,perfect mix.

 

About a unhealthy red - orange mix,maybe a perfect mix of it but not so sure, i think i would go with Daniel Plainview from There Will Be Blood. Same thing with Louis Bloom.0_FkV69fpOJBJa5wVR.png
