Does that make you uncomfortable?

Goooowaan Spurly lad.

 

Strange. Out of all the threads that it could have gone on for a reaction, you chose that one?

 

To make some points (that you wont read) but thats fine

Xenophobia only came around in the last couple of hundred years.

The original word is misoxenie (aversion to strangers)

This had nothing to do with countries, or nationalities or immigration.
It was one ingroup having a mistrust of other external groups.

This existed between places in Britain if you go back far enough. Its a mistrust of strangers outside of your territory. It's rooted in our fkn biology like, its also obviously rooted in canine biology, which is why we have the symbiotic relationship with dogs that we used to guard us from strangers, as the dogs knew friend from stranger, strange smells alerted them. #biology

There are no doubt some people in Manchester who hate people from Liverpool and vice versa, which is driven by the same biological imperatives that drive ingroup preferences based your perceived group. We see it in politics, national identity, football rivalry ect.

My point about all this
Calling someone a xenophobe is an attack on someone's character. It's the only purpose it serves. It implies lower level bigot, not quite racist but almost. That's never what the "condition was" ie misoxenie, is driven by biology (and affected by life experience, a black woman raped 6 differnt times by white men, may well have a fear of being alone all white men), not bigotry. It's a real thing, and not something supposed to be used to attack others, its a symptom of our genetics that drive tribalism.

 

Not strange at all ... go find the original pic and see the context ... it was in response to a jokey comment from another poster asking if a particular image was me ...

You will make up your own mind, of course

 

come on then...

 

Day 5 of winding up my mate

what you cooking today ? horseshit pie?

 

Nice lecture.

Only you’re conflating tribalism with xenophobia, as it’s a convenient argument to try and pretend that the latter somehow doesn’t exist.

Mancs and scousers to use your example, have tribal rivalry, however a manc moving in next door to a scouser isn’t going to create a fit of the vapours and conversations about how the neighbourhood is going down the pan.......

 

Don't call him that Roy...

you didnt read my post properly or understand it. Tribalism is the root of alleged Xenophobia, which is in fact a political rehash and mangling of misoxenie. Which makes them impossible to conflate
Xenophobia is a label for "muh bad ppl".



re your second point
Tribal rivalry between people who never met each other, based on in group preference is very different from 1 person moving between cities. The neighbours could get on great, but.. they've met, remember xenophobia (misoxenie) is aversion to strangers, they are no longer strangers, yet some supporters might hear there is a manc living a few roads down, and go burn his car because he's a say Man U manc. (that's not some backhanded attack on Scousers) the new neighbour is still part of the "outgroup" to them.

Dont make me post any more long posts
