Ideas for combating the right-wing on social media/online

[Hardkill]

After reading Leo's blog post on "How Right-Wing Dominates Social Media" I was contemplating again on what seriously needs to be done to combat the dominance of the right-wing media. Here are more ideas I have for that:

The majority of people are still Stage Blue (order, tradition) or Stage Orange (success, logic).

If you speak only in Stage Green language, you’ll sound confusing, weak, elitist, or alien.

But if you code-switch — using language and stories that resonate with Blue/Orange values — you can open doors for them to evolve upward.

💬 Example:
Don’t say “late-stage capitalism is causing ecosystem collapse.”
Say: “Big corporations are screwing your kids’ future just to pad their profits.”

Same truth. Different language.

2. 🏗️ Stage Orange Is Necessary for Building Infrastructure

Orange energy is strategic, productive, money-savvy, ambitious.

You need Orange for:

Running organizations

Monetizing without selling out

Scaling operations

Playing algorithm chess

Hiring creatives and coders who can compete with Silicon Valley

🔧 Green alone can't build the machine — Orange knows how to build systems that work.

3. 🔵 Stage Blue is How You Reach the Masses Emotionally

Blue understands loyalty, family, patriotism, morality.

You can reach people who seem MAGA by speaking to their values — but reframed.

💬 For example:

“You love your country? Then make sure every American has clean water and a decent job. That’s real patriotism.”

This is framing justice as moral duty, not just policy preference.

4. 🟢 Stage Green Sets the Compass

Green brings the vision.

It holds the ethical standard, the humane perspective, the inclusive worldview.

Without Green, you risk becoming another hollow corporate media company.

But Green needs Orange and Blue to carry the vision to the masses.

🧭 Green = compass
🔨 Orange = builder
🔊 Blue = amplifier

🔄 It’s a Spiral, Not a Hierarchy

Each stage plays a role:

You don’t mock Blue — you uplift its healthy expressions (loyalty, sacrifice, faith).

You don’t shame Orange — you steer it toward long-term impact over ego.

You don’t isolate Green — you embed it within the language of the people.

And eventually… you graduate to Stage Yellow — which integrates all previous stages and thinks systemically.

TL;DR

✅ Stage Green brings the values
✅ Stage Orange builds the strategy
✅ Stage Blue delivers the story
