Just because it’s true doesn’t mean it’s right. By working I mean that exploiting tribalism and weaponizing misinformation is a division tactic spreading across the globe. Whether they divide us with the truth or divide us with falsehoods, it’s the division that’s the problem.
That’s not how real life works. This is projection of very recent media-driven natives on pre-history and low-development modernity.
Tribes and tribalism by necessity predate “culture wars” because the nuance of culture and use of culture as the basis for conflict would come after the conflict over resources. Can’t have a culture war if the other people already starved to death.
On top of the fact that this assumes a very wealthy, western media habit. In a village with no power, the funnel through which “culture war” can even reach eyes and ears arrives is pretty narrow. And not even in a language some people speak. Not everyone on Earth speaks English, abokina.
You can’t just blame everything on the new phrases you know with thousands of years of real history to look at. Please try to read some history and anthropology if you can’t spend time in places that aren’t like where you know.
