Overthrow authority to become the new authority - that's like having a political/idealogical revolution that just perpetuates the same crap w/ new sets of values for society. New sets of shoulds and shouldn'ts w/o learning the green meme lessons sufficiently to go onto next stage of yellow and turquoise.
A 'mature' green meme could begin to appreciate the complexity and multiplicity of perspectives and ways of life - thus, should and should not is understood by being contextually sensitive. So instead of saying should or shouldn't, people may say, well it depends on the situation. I would think green meme people may begin to handle more ambiguity (grey areas) and complexity of situation, but not fully see or understand the complexity until yellow meme (systemic thinking). I think mean green meme have one tool - a hammer- so everything looks like a nail that needs to be hammered down (dogmatic, anti-authoritarian). A mature greek meme has more tools - so they are able to assess situations and use more appropriate tools, perhaps?
By yellow, society has a kaleidoscope to view itself as an organism w/ parts within it working in some kind of organized pattern. I think Dr. Beck said yellow was 'right brain w/ data' and turquoise was 'left brain w/ feelings'. Reminds me of the balance btwn intuition and rational mind that Ra talked about (49.4).
