[QUOTE="djinwa, post: 1200097, member: 8265"] I get 2 white hens and 2 brown hens every year. When they are on the roost, the browns and whites stay apart. I've become more aware of our behavior as humans, and it isn't much better than animals. Racism is just one form of tribalism - the need to join a group and stick to it for security and survival, especially the more insecure among us. It just feels good to consider your group to be superior to the others. Groups people cling to include race, religion, political party, sports teams, etc, etc. I know people who cut off ties with their own kids when they left the family religion. The group takes priority over everything. Most of our behavior is an effort to fit in with the group, or impress others in the group. Fashion, style, accumulating wealth, or whatever. Fear of rejection causes much anxiety. One of the worst forms of tribalism is nationalism, which is used to fuel our appetite for war. The evening news paints other countries as barbaric for the way they treat each other, while we bomb them to smithereens. Of course, that makes us more civilized, as it is done from high in the sky, even with a drone pilot sitting 6,000 miles away. For some reason we never see the body parts of little kids on the evening news. USA, USA, USA!!!! [/QUOTE]
