Tribalism seems trite and cute to the well balanced, the even keeled and “wise ones”.

Think Soccer and football.

However Russia just invaded Ukraine, Tribalism or Nationalism will now come right into play. Tribalism seems to be built into the human existence and is a necessity at times of war, tragedy and support. The kicker is that it works.

It is when guttural thinking almost matches logical thinking.

It is a necessary evil, it sits on shelf or in tool box and used less and less in a modern era. Then you are glad its there.
