Moms vist to hargeisa

So my mom want to waqooyi (hargeisa specifically), and she was visiting relatives she hadn't seen since the Civil War, and there were so many new extended family. Wat surprised her was that many of the extended family that came to greet her were clans from sool and snaag.. and she was surprised because the current clan conflict is made out to be a dispute between two separate oppositions of clans and their people, but these people are literally deeply integrated.

She said when ever dispute happen and there is jailing and killings the families I'm hargeisa would call their extended family in sool and basically ask to look after their family member (and vice versa).

These people have been living door to door for the past centuries and having same language, culture, faith ( nearly common in everything) they are the same people but because clanism is so rooted in somali culture they have 'us and them' mentality..

this us and them mentality is used as a manipulation tactic by the corrupt politically interested individuals (mostly old heada) to get ahead in politics or business.
 
I don’t get it at all though. Like this is your own family thats getting harmed but you still rep your clans, support it, and aid in its benefit. I never get it wallahi it’s a disease to me. How do you look at them eye to eye, act nice to them but when your in the quiet of your home you support what your clan military does. They are deeply integrated, married with another but still support in the annihilation of their own family members people… What’s the point in even being deeply integrated at all then.

Honestly I really think it's few political elites who are manipulating the majority with clan rhetorics and they fall for it due to ignorance

This is not tribal but they're using Tribalism.

If a land grab those that take over in laascaanood got laughed at in Xamar because they can't make a fed states only with 1 city and the country side around it.

So they're trying to create a tribal conflict they want to try and taker over the second capital of a region.

Your covering and trying to justify this stuff? Family members are fighting on opposite sides, young men die, women die, children die on both sides and its all fueled by the old men who sloth away in their villas ordering the deaths of hundreds for what? A name? A legacy? We are talking about cousins, uncles, extended family fighting on both sides and you try to cover it? You are the lowest of the low I wont even call you a xaywaan since its a insult to them, wallahi by god I thank that I wont have to meet a scumbag like you in real life.

Marrying rival clans in the past was to decrease hostilities and bring families together. Today ilmo adeeradoda kama xishoonaayan. Imagine seeing ur relatives spouting g*nocidal rhethoric about your clan on tiktok🤣

It’s jarring tbh. And many of these people don’t even live back home and barely know the somali language/culture and still spout it. Mfers get to live in the comforts of the west spouting this genocidal rhetoric and yet they call themselves Muslims too.
