even though I have a suspicion that the kind of discipline those inmates get from these institutions is leaning more to a healthy vMEME Blue, that initiative, as a social policy, is very vMEME Green. I was very surprised to know that there are such programs here in Brazil.

A beautiful Documentary which clarifies a lot of the concepts expressed by Heidegger in his book "Being and Time, one of the most difficult books I've ever read in my life.

“Reality is what we take to be true. What we take to be true is what we believe. What we believe is based upon our perceptions. What we perceive depends on what we look for. What we look for depends on what we think. What we think depends on what we perceive. What we perceive determines what we believe. What we believe determines what we take to be true. What we take to be true is our reality.” David Bohm

The most Gansgta Documentary I've ever seen...

"Civilization may be the greatest bait-and-switch that ever was. It convinces us to destroy what is free so an overpriced, inferior copy can be sold to us later—often financed with the money we’ve earned hastening the destruction of the free version. Contaminate streams, rivers, lakes, and aquifers with industrial waste, pesticide runoff, and fracking chemicals, and then sell us “pure spring water” (often just tapwater) in plastic bottles that break down into microplastics that find their way to oceans, whales’ stomachs, and our own bloodstreams. Work hard now so you can afford to relax later. We ignore friends and family while we struggle to get rich so someone will eventually love us. The voices of civilization fill us with manufactured yearnings and then sell us prepackaged dollops of transitory satisfaction that evaporate on the tongue. Some throw up their hands and blame it all on human nature. But that’s a mistake. It’s not human nature that makes us engage in this blind destruction of our world and ourselves. For hundreds of thousands of years, human beings thrived on this planet without doing it in. No, this is not the nature of our species—it is the nature of civilization, an emergent social structure in which our species is presently trapped. To understand the roots of our seeming penchant for ecocide, we must understand that an animal’s nature can only be expressed in relation to its environment, natural or contrived." A very eloquent excerpt from the book "Civilized to Death", by Christopher Ryan.

"Dasein is an entity which in each case I myself am. Mineness belongs to any existent Dasein, and belongs to it as the condition which makes authenticity and inauthenticity possible. In each case Dasein exists in one or the other of these two modes, or else it is modally undifferentiated. But these are both ways in which Dasein's Being takes on a definite character, and they must be seen and understood a priori as grounded upon that state of Being which we have called "Being-in-the-world'." Being and Time - Martin Heidegger Again...as I said before, the only stage in which I really have problems classifying it is vMEME TURQUOISE, but looking at Heidegger 's phenomenological approach to existence, it seems to match some of Leo's teachings about reality and metaphysics. That's the impression that I got, I might be wrong about that, but neither way, I decided to post it.?

The consequences of vMEME Blue ethnocentrism

https://www.amazon.com/Complete-Vegan-Kitchen-Jannequin-Bennett/dp/1401603475# This book is a very good example of vMEME GREEN lifestyle. The author not only talks about recipes and nutrition facts, but sometimes talks about Vegan ideology and worldview too.

"We tell stories about what happened, but, just as often, the stories we tell determine what happens. Narrative becomes paradigm, because origin stories are as predictive and constraining as they are explanatory. The map showing where we came from delimits where we can go from here. If yours is a story of victimization, you will live out your days a victim. If it’s a tale in which your race is superior to all others,evidence of their inferiority will seem plentiful and obvious." Christopher Ryan , an excerpt from his book "Civilized to Death "

The issue at hand is vMEME RED, But the Analysis presented in that documentary is very vMEME Yellow

Early vMEME Green talking about toxic vMEME Orange behavior. It is quite iluminating to see how the guest is able to go meta in order to evaluate how far his earlier friend has gone off road. (forget the gossip, let's focus on the discussion)

War and Peace - Leo Tolstoy Although Tolstoy himself I would consider him at early vMEME Green, the novel, from what I could see, covers a lot of the power dynamics within the vMEME Blue nobility/aristocracy, how people with different ranks in the hierarchy interact with one another, and the gender roles and fixed moral values that they all have to obey... Here is an excerpt from the book, which is an exchange of letters between two countesses, talking about Christian Faith: "Yet since you tell me that among some good things it contains others which our weak human understanding cannot grasp, it seems to me rather useless to spend time in reading what is unintelligible and can therefore bear no fruit. I never could understand the fondness some people have for confusing their minds by dwelling on mystical books that merely awaken their doubts and excite their imagination, giving them a bent for exaggeration quite contrary to Christian simplicity. Let us rather read the Epistles and Gospels. Let us not seek to penetrate what mysteries they contain; for how can we, miserable sinners that we are, know the terrible and holy secrets of Providence while we remain in this f lesh which forms an impenetrable veil between us and the Eternal? Let us rather confine ourselves to studying those sublime rules which our divine Saviour has left for our guidance here below. Let us try to conform to them and follow them, and let us be persuaded that the less we let our feeble human minds roam, the better we shall please God, who rejects all knowledge that does not come from Him; and the less we seek to fathom what He has been pleased to conceal from us, the sooner will He vouchsafe its revelation to us through His divine Spirit."

That's actually early Blue(vMEME RED/Blue) And because of that, you might expect a lot of vMEME RED involved.

"It is difficult for members of a modern individualistic society to imagine the extent to which the Canela(tribe) saw the group as more important than the individual. Generosity and sharing was the ideal, while withholding was a social evil. Sharing possessions brought esteem. Sharing one’s body was a direct corollary. Desiring control over one’s goods and self was a form of stinginess. In this context, it is easy to understand why women chose to please men and why men chose to please women who expressed strong sexual needs. No one was so self-important that satisfying a fellow tribesman was less gratifying than personal gain." Sex At Dawn - Christopher Ryan & Cacilda Jethá

I still can't believe this is happening (and I also cannot believe I'm writing this down) the reason why I'm sharing this with you guys it's because I feel myself in a very vulnerable state.... I live in Brazil, and I'm preparing myself for taking an exam called ENEM, which is the equivalent to a SAT test. As I was studying at my school, doing remote studying due to the pandemic, when I've met her(she's a vMEME Yellow Literature teacher), she was substituting another professor, who left the school, the moment I saw her, I immediately started to feel an intense connection, I considered myself in a vMEME ORANGE/Green , but I always had a very deep appreciation towards the vMEME Yellow independence and expertise, also the fact that they are a lone wolf. And she has all that characteristics that were previously mentioned (plus more) I started chatting with her, sharing her some ideas which I thought she might like, and she always replied me with a text expressing her views in a more broader manner, always leaving space for discussion. Until one day I couldn't resist anymore and declared myself to her, that I was in love, and that's when things get weird.... she replied me back, in a very direct and also neutral manner (that's pretty much the moment when I realized how Yellow thinks...) She said that her job is a very important pillar of her life and that she doesn't want to risk losing it , she also said that she could not intervene with my emotions in the sense that she wouldn't say how I should or shouldn't behave, that it is up to me to decide... she also said that if it isn't too much for me that we can continue having the same kind of discussions that we've had before, because she appreciates my point of view on things... I remember I felt devastated, but at the same time she was so honest and neutral that I couldn't blame her even if I wanted to... Until one day, I've had an emotional breakdown (things are getting tough for me these days...) and for some reason I reached out for her once more asking for help, and she was slowly being able to soothe me and to take me out from that terrible state that I was in... She find out I'm an artist... and that immediately sparkled her attention, she wanted to know more about how my creative process actually works. She eventually ended up calling me with a giant list of questions, wanting to know how the world looks like from the perspective of an artist. At that moment I didn't know how to react... but I decided to take her questions, but from time to time, I could resist and started to say how much I'm in love with her and how much joy it would be for me to get to know her better (I felt very vulnerable at that moment...) but again... she remained silent and neutral... and continued asking me questions . The only thing near to what I was hoping for was the moment she said that if it wasn't in that particular context (Professor- Student) she said that there might be a possibility for her to consider because she finds my worldview to be very interesting... and that was it. And every time I try to get her to say something more, she dodges the question, once more, in a very neutral way.... I need some help guys! I'm really desperate . I was always afraid of falling in love precisely because of that. I'm constantly thinking about her, but I don't whether I should talk to her more or try to avoid her for a while... Every answer she does seems more and more ambiguous to me.... and she is very self-sufficient she likes to do things by herself (even travel!) and I can imagine how turn off it might be for her having to deal with a needy guy the way I'm behaving these days... Please guys I need help! If you were able to go that far.... please give me a comment. I appreciate you guys thoughts on things!???

@Leo Gura! DO YOU THINK I'M NOT AWARE OF THIS LEO!!!?? I was a pickup-artist myself!!!! Off course I know that I'm being needy!!! Do you think I'm doing this willingly!?!? I definitely wasn't expecting this!!! For years I thought that I got immune to this, because I haven't experienced that since I started doing pickup... But now it seems to have bitten me in the ass...

"For the primitives, childbirth is surrounded by strict taboos; in particular, the placenta must be carefully burned or thrown into the sea, because whoever might get hold of it would hold the newborn’s fate in his hands; this envelope in which the fetus is formed is the sign of its dependence; in annihilating it, the individual is able to detach himself from the living magma and to realize himself as an autonomous being." An excerpt from the book "The Second Sex" by Simone de Beauvoir

Now THAT is REAL Journalism!!!!
