    Sounds like you view the people with the tribalism gene as “them” and those who don’t carry that gene as “us”. Perhaps you are more tribalist than you think…

    I’m being a bit cheeky but I honestly do think humanity would be better off if we acknowledged that certain character flaws are fundamental to human nature, rather than pretending that there are “good” people and “bad” people.

      It’s the paradox of tolerance sadly. If they insist on being tribal then they’re insisting of being removed from the whole. And I care about the whole.
