A grandiose depiction of Red Emperor Cortes conquering and indigenous tribe:

Lots of Blue in the Conquistadors as well. Early stage Blue people love to go crusading to convert the heathens.

A new aquaintence of mine shared his enthusiasm with me regarding the band Pantera. I brought up this video today and the idea of SD level Red came to mind.

@Zigzag Idiot Bro check out the ozzfest perfomance in 2000. I posted it here earlier. It's arguably the most refined example of Red energy out there :D

It's at the peak of Phil's heroin addiction and he is treating his voice like a piece of toilet paper xD

Why is red so attractive and alluring?

Hitler is way more energetic and articulated, it's understandable why so many fell for him.

Antonio Salieri from Amadeus is quite red. I just watched the directors cut of this movie and it is so good. He is so jealous that he conspires against Mozart even though his own musical awareness is high enough to greatly admire and covet Mozart making him Mozart's biggest fan. When he is writing Mozart's you can tell it is the most engaging and wow'd he has ever been regarding his musical passion.

@Carl-Richard Lol that’s true, I guess I just can’t help myself. However, in practice, it’s Hitler who would be in jeopardy, not me, if our paths ever crossed.

:oxD

The Roman Republic is a great for demonstrating both the strengths and weaknesses of Red. Hyper ambitious individuals being a big part of how Rome rose to prominence, with later generations of the Red meme being a pivotal factor in its downfall.

Wanted to shout out "Voice of North Korea by Yeonmi Park" Youtube channel. Very eye opening channel about North Korean defector explaining through first hand experience on the living conditions there. Its amazing how she was able to overcome deep stage blue/red propaganda and move herself up to stage orange values really inspiring.

But this video in particular caught my attention.

The hypocrisy and deep ignorance of North Korean high officials is sometimes to baffling it like art

I get the feeling there's Red in here somewhere... :P 

Though, I feel solid Red would've just blown him apart at the get-go without stopping to call the niece.  "Shoot first, ask questions later."
