  3. I was in the east of Laos and in the North of Philippines last year, and there are many people who live exactly the way they lived a few hundred years ago. It's just that we don't realize it. There are hardly any roads, and certainly no good roads. There is nobody from their tribe in the government or something, so they take care of themselves and they're incredibly good at it. It's not a romantic life, it's hard, and they will continue living in the same way if all electricity in the world fails and all stock markets crash. They live without all that.

    It's good to realize it. Much of the behaviour of people in modern societies, the way we think, our fears and beliefs, can be explained if we understand that we have lived in tribes for millions of years. That's where humans developed, in these circumstances. You can go to Laos and try ecotourism. A guide comes with you and you are invited to live in the forest for two days. Find a good organization; one that tells you that you have to sleep on the floor, that you should find your own food in the forest, and that you can't bring your mobile phone. Laos and Mongolia are the countries with a the largest percentage of people in tribes (maybe 20 - 40% of the population), and that you can visit. Philippines has a few. South-America has many. Africa has probably most, but that's not safe to visit - or only with commercial companies where people in tribes just dress up for you.

  4. Dude, tribalism is a genetically programed instinct, hardwired into all higher primates.  Chimps & baboons form tribes.  In fact any coherent social group is in a sense, a tribe.

    Do you understand what I'm saying?  

    I have no idea who you are (I haven't even looked at your Profile) but I know this about you:  You're in a tribe too, although your Question suggests you're unaware of it.  Tribes are not some strange thing out there known only to exotic primitives or ethnic minorities; they're part of the fabric of human life and always have been and always will be....
