Integral Basics
Just a couple of points to keep in mind.
Basic integral principle: Nobody is smart enough to be wrong all of the time. That obviously includes Orange conservatives. And as I have to keep reminding myself, that must extend to the Blue meme version as well.
Basic Integral Principle: the way up the Spiral is to Include and Transcend. Yes, I know it is usually said the other way around. Which makes it all to eacy to focus on the Transcend part, and ignore the Include part. If you think you are at Yellow, and you are still rejecting Orange conservatism as "evil", sorry to have to tell you this, but you aren't at Yellow at all. You may be Left Wing Blue, you may be Healthy Green or MGM. But you aren't Yellow until you have re-integrated Orange.
So try this "test"... List ten good things about Orange meme conservatives. By the way, the more resistant to doing this you are, the more work you have ahead of you to really make it to Second Tier.
Now those 10 points have to be "positive" ones. "I don't know any", or "none of them live near me", doesn't count. I'll give you the obvious one: Orange provides a exit point up out of Blue...
Only nine more to go....
