Vigilante justice and mob mentality can run rampant in lawless criminal areas.

It's all about what "the community" wants. The community wants to murder this guy called William. William runs a private armed organization which collaborates with the police in the area. Although it hasn't been shown in this video, communities around this part in South Africa have been known to burn criminals alive.

Hark ye yet again — the little lower layer. All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event — in the living act, the undoubted deed — there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask! How can the prisoner reach outside except by thrusting through the wall? To me, the white whale is that wall, shoved near to me. Sometimes I think there's naught beyond. But 'tis enough.

@Leo Gura you said earlier that 9/11 firefighters where stage blue. What made you think that?


"Not believing your own thoughts, you’re free from the primal desire: the thought that reality should be different than it is. You realise the wordless, the unthinkable. You understand that any mystery is only what you yourself have created. In fact, there’s no mystery. Everything is as clear as day. It’s simple, because there really isn’t anything. There’s only the story appearing now. And not even that.” — Byron Katie

Well... it's a broad generalization. I can't know for sure. But Blue is the type of person who would die in the call of duty for his country/people.

Reminds of the movie Ladder 49, which was a stage Blue tearjerker:

Same phenomena as jumping on a grenade to save your troops. Classic Blue move.

Hacksaw Ridge is probably the most positive depiction of stage Blue you're gonna find:

Not surprising, given Mel Gibson is a stage Blue kinda guy, so he glorifies Blue.

Yeah very positive manifestation of blue. The guy would even help the Japanese because his duty to god would come before his duty to his country  

Patriotic and religious at the same time creates interesting behaviours

Marcus Aurelius' Meditations are Blue at it's healthiest.

Although, Aurelius has been criticized by historians for exterminating Christians. Which is not at all surprising.

The 9/11 hijackers were also Blue.

Which Blue Americans find very offensive when that's pointed out to them because it's too much truth for Blue to admit.

Blue has to deny the atrocities of Blue in order to stay Blue. Blue has a good set of justifications for distinguishing itself from other forms of Blue which are obviously unhealthy.
