I don't think tribalism is rooted in meanness, but I do think that as we get older, we are more capable of cruelty. I don't think it's inevitable, but the capicty builds. I mean, you don't see little kids being as cruel as bigger kids, and those bigger kids don't do some of the heinous things some adults do.Lemon Gloriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07280085058516960260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117136912052729666.post-54059237593688588022015-04-27T16:30:09.235-04:002015-04-27T16:30:09.235-04:00Thank you, Eric!Thank you, Eric!Lemon Gloriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07280085058516960260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117136912052729666.post-59391721864528085842015-04-27T15:04:22.015-04:002015-04-27T15:04:22.015-04:00Beautiful.

I think our knowledge of our community increases. When it does, we have a strong instinct to blindly conform to our tribe, however we define it.<br /><br />There is a comfort in being part of a tribe - the internet provides plenty of evidence for this... but often that comfort turns into a militancy targeted at anyone not part of our tribe. That militancy has its roots in our desire to find our place in our tribe.<br /><br />Is tribalism rooted in basic meanness? I don't think it is.vvkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03734548705832479139noreply@blogger.com
