His knowledge base is massive. He talks to/from stages blue, orange, and green without exclusively cherishing their perspectives on repeat. He also makes good critiques of them by stating facts and surgically pulling out the consequences — good or bad — then applying conscious moral judgements to them. He represents a "healthy" version of capitalism. He cares about more than just his tribe, be it family, country, ideology, or humanity.

Can't say what his views are in the spiritual dimension though. Otherwise, a solid, current example of SD Yellow.

All of the stage yellow values perfectly apply to Marxism-Leninism except dialectical idealism

No. Why would you think that?

And the core of this dialectic, the one he brought from Hegel, is the most vMEME Yellow theory possible (Thesis + Antithesis = Synthesis)

@Bernardo Carleial What is your point? Bc if it is "ML is not stage yellow" than you have given the reason why the opposite is true yourself.

Even though Lenin had a vision for a model of government beyond the monarchy.  

The way he implemented was at cost of human blood in a period called the red terror. Until it finally Unified at 1922, which became the U.S.S.R. he indeed improved the lives of many in the working class, but his project also took a lot of land from peasants, confiscated by the regime and to benefit a small local businessmen.

 

Lenin also took power by force, even after the revolution was done, when his party lost the election. 

 

His model also is not "spiral aware" of all the values that the nation has, which is why even though Lenin modernized the country with his New Economic Policies, as soon as he died, and someone took his power, which in this case was Stalin, who was a power hungry man, the entire well being (and livelihood) of the entire population was put at stake  for economic growth and centralized power.

 

We don't have clear definitions of vMEME Yellow governments yet, but some glimpses of that may be found in world or continental organizations like the UN or the EU , which has a bad reputation from time to time, precisely because is a power that deals with a plurality of interests ,and collaboration of many different agents in order to work.

It can be messy, but it is like this because there is no centralized force, and can still be prosperous and share common interests while keeping the autonomy at their territories.
