Do people not fast anymore?

[Rayaale]

Some of the qabiilism I see from certain akhis and other chronically online reer SL honestly makes zero sense. Like, what could they possibly have against reer Koonfur? If someone genuinely believes the Kacaan regime and Daroods tried to genocide Isaaqs then sure—I can at least understand beef with MXs or Hartis. But what on earth does an Isaaq have against a Hawiye or Raxanweyn?

It smells of thinly veiled xenophobia toward Somali Bantus. and Ana-Arabism. You can tell a lot of these people are trying to meme reer Koonfur as "Bantu admixed," when in reality, 99% of the genetic samples we’ve seen from the south are indistinguishable from those in the north. Even the occasional “Congolese” trace that shows up on 23andMe is bogus—it appears in occasional northern Somalis too, including those I've seen on the high end of MENA ancestry among Somalis.

I’ve even seen this kind of madness a bit in real life. One reer SL girl saw a picture of my mom—who’s quite light-skinned—and went, “Oh, your mother doesn’t look like she’s from around Mogadishu. She looks Somalilander.” Like… what? I knew exactly what was going through her head. She genuinely believed light-skinned reer Koonfur didn’t exist. The perception some of these folks have of reer Koonfur being basically Tutsis is insane.

Ive been to Hargeisa like twice, the people looked more omotic and had kinkier hair and were short on average compared to other Somalis, so them saying Somalis from the south are not pure Somalis is inaccurate
