Pre-election times in America – everybody seems to have become crazy.  Word fights, a fierce friend-enemy mentality. But do you want to understand why people respond this way? and why things happen as they happen?

Integral Theory gives some very good answers, so that you can see what is moving people in which direction. Considering the levels of development you understand why rationality is not always a tool to reach people – who are not yet grown up into the rational level. And emotional charge can lead to what Ken Wilber calls the “Pre-Trans Fallacy”. In the present American situation I am observing that people support the candidate who is “AGAINST”, just because they, themselves, are against many things in present society. But they don’t often realize that their own contraposition is of a different kind, of a different level, and that they are triggered by lower level manipulation to give their support to someone who would NEVER consider them and their concerns, being himself at a pre-rational level.

Having said this: the following video is an excerpt of a live show, where Heidi tries to explain in very limited time what the levels of development are in society.
