Recently came across this show made by Duncan Trussel and Pendleton Ward (creator of Adventure Time). It's more or less an animated version of Duncan's podcast where he talks about frankly about a host of topics including grief, spirituality, psychedelics...

The context for this clip is Duncan having a Conversation with his mother who was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, knowing this is one of the last conversations he's going to have with her (she passed away before the show went on the air).

I’m not sure how to type this one. The Middle East is a different environment than developed countries.

Lol, and they say Green is "soft" and "emotional".

 I highly doubt these are green. Be careful not to confuse ideology with stages of development.

Green can be revolutionaries. Probably because they are mixing Red emotion with Green ideology though. Remember, noone is in just one vmeme, were rainbows.

Sure, but you don't have to be even close to green to fight for LGBTQ rights.

Blue is violently opposed, Orange doesnt care or think its unscientific, its definitely a Green trait. To be so intent on fighting for LGBTQ that you call yourself Queer-Anarchists and make your flag Black/Pink youre definitely in Green territority. Hands dont automatically grow into paws just because youre Green, you can still tap into earlier stages.

It could be a nuanced mixture and expression of stages. Not every phenomena is cleanly categorized into a stage. At Tier2 it's ok to have categorical ambiguity and uncertainty. That's part of the curiosity, creativity and exploration. 

I think there is some interesting Green in there, yet it doesn't seem like a clean, traditional pure Green to me. Perhaps because the environment is red/blue centered.

Just anecdotally, but I happen to know a number of Orange Libertarian types who are totally on board with LGBTQ rights, they just approach the issue differently than someone at Stage Green or Yellow would.

And thats where the model crumbles and we realize these are humans with deeply complex values, emotions and backgrounds.  We can "surface" model though.

Orange Libertarians may support LGBTQ from a personal-rights, small government ideological position, yet they are not going to *fight* for LGBTQ rights and inclusion. It would simply be on principle. 

Neither Blue nor Orange would value and fight for the inclusion of a marginalized out-group. A good example is Jordan Peterson. He may 'talk' about LGBTQ personal rights in principal, yet he resists the actual inclusion actions to manifest that as reality. They would see the actuality of inclusion and equality as encroaching upon their own personal freedoms to exclude the out-group.

Correct. And of course it's a progression from being uncomfortable /morally opposed towards LGBTQ people, then a transition to being passively accepting of LGBTQ people, and if they continue developing that will transition in to actively fighting for LGBTQ rights and inclusion.

Also from a developmental level, most Orange folks still have a limited understanding of what discrimination and exclusion looks like, and are only cognizant of the most direct and obvious forms of it.

That picture makes me think about how it's technically possible to fight excessive Blue (fascism, anti-LGBTQ) from below, namely from Red. I mean, did the ancient romans have anything against homosexuality? Though it has to be said that organizing under a shared identity and fighting for group rights is afterall a collectivist endevour, and the question then becomes: is it possible from purple/red?  Maybe the preconception of LGBTQ rights belonging to or being centered around Green is an eurocentric one haha.

EDIT: Certainly, the concept of "individual rights" is a post-blue/orange concept... what was I thinking? 

Then to modify that question again: is it possible to organize a coordinated fight against oppressive Blue forces from purple/red based on group identity without expecting/knowing about group rights? Maybe group identity is a foreign concept aswell, because it assumes the ability to show concern for other people than your own immediate tribe (an "extended tribe"), and purple/red may only recognize their own immediate tribe as being important.
