If you think that tribalism is a new way of life, think again.
Like many isms and schisms, it’s been prevalent for millenia.
How old do you think the tags Gentiles, Heathens and Kaffirs are?
Think about this for instance; a set of people not only said it, but put it in writing, that they are the “chosen ones” of the Creator of the entire universe!
They went on to raid, plunder, displace and massacre another set of people that they called ‘Gentiles’, and took over their land; all in the name of a promise.
Yet another set of people said to themselves; “The earlier folks were wrong. We have the last Prophet. Let’s go teach these Pagans/Kaffirs who the true Creator is”.
Yet again, these went on to raid, plunder, displace and massacre vast numbers of people that they called pagans/kaffirs, and took over their land; all in the name of delivering them to a Prophet and to the real Creator.
Long after that, another set of people said to themselves; “Let’s go and salvage these savages who are less than humans, and civilize them; wash their sins from red scarlet to white as snow”.
Again, these went on to raid, plunder, displace and massacre an entire continent of people that they called ‘Heathens/savages’, and took over their land; all in the name of delivering them to their savior and to “civilization”.
There are even those among us, who slaughtered each other based purely on the shapes and sizes of their noses, believe it or not.
The truth is, beyond all those excuses we humans give to justify our defects, greed and sheer stupidity, the real issue is one thing; RESOURCES.
We always yearn for what others have and seek to destroy them to get it, even when we have our own resources. It’s never enough; we always want more.
Fortunately, isms and schisms are not part of our nature and make up at birth. Babies might see and recognize objects, but they do not know color!
We’re taught colors in nursery school. I ask myself, who decided that red is red and green is green? Who was the first human to name colors? Do colors even matter?
Babies don’t know names to shapes, dimensions and sizes. They accept things as they see them, through their innocent lenses; no judgment.
When a baby gets fond of something, it’s never about them KNOWING what color or shape it is, they just love the LOOK and FEEL of it.
This is what we call OBUTONZI; the original template for human beings.
What we became after, is as gross and defective as a creation can get.
I’m growing wise enough not speak about the ills in society; for each and every human KNOWS right from wrong. Those who don’t are termed as clinically insane or Psychotic.
The Cosmic system (Obwengula) is agitating for the total annihilation of humans, for they say we have absolutely no clue how blessed to live on this planet called “Earth’.
There is neither a force nor a higher power out there that will stop humanity from self destruction; for whoever created humanity, can still create.
Here’s To Tribalism. Hear Hear!
Come all ye faithful.
Let us self destruct!
