White Tribalism

No one is white, but believing in whiteness is all what some people have. Those are the MAGA supremacists who do not want to be black, and who would do and vote for whatever is opposite to what blacks vote for.

No one is white

Human skin color ranges from black to beige. No one is white. Not even the palest human on Earth is  white. Put a white sock or a white shirt on that skin, and the truth will reveal for you. So called "white" skin is actually beige. 

Nordic vs Tropical

Human tribes that settled in the northern hemisphere developed light beige color skin while humans that stayed in tropical areas either stayed beige or developed darker skin tones of brown or black. It's all about melanin, nature's own sunscreen. Other "racial" characteristics (hair, nostrils, eyelids, etc) are also biological adaptations to environmental and climatological differences in the different regions of the planet. 

One family

Here we are today, a big family of seven plus billion smart primates, all essentially the same, and all members of the only one race, the human race. Different tribes developed different cultures (set of norms and beliefs), but we are all the same breed of homo sapiens.

We can decide to kill each other or co-exist together. In the past, our ancestors typically opted to kill each other over real estate and power. Europe, for example, was a bloody game of thrones throughout its history. It is still going on today (e.g. Russia vs. Ukraine). Human peace is always earned and never guaranteed. Being strong and ready is the best deterrence. 

Tribalism

As primates, we are all tribal creatures. More than territorial animals, we humans are tribal animals. The tribe is key to our survival and wellbeing. At least that is what we are evolutionary programmed to believe. 

How do we define our tribe. Is our tribe the humans that inherited the same "racial" characteristics? Is our tribe the humans that live in the same country? Is our tribe the people who share our same beliefs? 

Choosing our tribe will make or break us. It is better to realize that we are all one tribe, the human tribe. Don't be fooled by those who want to make you think that becoming a member of a cult or a political gang is the key to your wellbeing. It is not. Free your mind. Embrace your humanity. Love all. Serve all.

Food for thought. What do you think?

Christian Abortions

Christian women should vote for Democrats to protect the sacred right to medically sound and compassionately humane abortions in the United States. Guaranteeing access to proper abortions under adequate medical care is not only a human right, but also a Christian obligation. Christian entrepreneurs should also tap into the untouched business opportunity of promoting Christian abortions.  Slap is food for thought. Take more at  TakeSlap.com   Christian faith stands for the belief in a heavenly father who loves his children on Earth. When that heavenly father sends one of his daughters a gift of life, daughters should feel loved and empowered to safely, kindly, and humanely return the gift to the father if desired. The heavenly father is not a monster or or sadistic deity.  The heavenly father will understand and appreciate the safe return of the unborn soul to heaven. The heavenly father will not want his daughter to suffer and will not want the soul to be in the wron...

Democracy is better than war

Politics is the best sport on Earth. Democracy is not perfect; it's simply a substitute for war. For democracy to work, the loser of the contest must accept defeat. All sitting presidents of the United States who have lost elections while in power have accepted defeat except one, Trump. Mounting evidence against Trump coming from the January 6th Hearings seems to indicate that Trump planned a violent coup to stay in power even after knowing that he had lost the elections. If that is the case, Trump should be indicted and prosecuted to preserve the rule of law and secure the future of democracy. Slap is food for thought. Take more at TakeSlap.com Democracy vs war In the old days, political power was gained by waging war. Opposing groups would go to battle. Whoever won the war would get the political power. All major civilizations developed their status by becoming experts at war.  Whoever had the best armies and weapons would typically win. That is still the case to this date, and t...

Elon Musk is a Trump wannabe

                                                            [This post was updated on April 25, 2022.] Is Musk a Trump wannabe?  You bet.  Unfortunately, he was born in South African and is not a natural born American.  Therefore, he cannot run for President of the United States. Money is addictive. Power is even more addictive than money. Money is addictive because your primate brain gets big dopamine payloads imagining the pleasures that money can buy for you. Power is more addictive than money because your brain gets an even higher dopamine payload imagining all the pleasures (including money) that power can get for you.   That is the case for everyone, including you. However, the attraction to money and power is even stronger in the brains of billionaires for two reasons: (i) they ...
