Are you a religous one?
Ok
So why should we embrace nationalism?
Or tribalism
seeing as it is the default state of existence its probably more appropriate for you to prove why we shouldnt
POV: you ask chungus jim "why"
Because it sows pointless divisions which prevent humanity from reaching the peak of it's capacity to enhance the well being of all people.
wrong
Ok
How?
ingroup preference or tribalism as you call it is a necessary trait in group survival. and seeing as how it will never go away its totally pointless to oppose it, unless you like the idea of being reduced to poverty and oppression for the sake of moral do-gooding
''modernity'' just does a really good job at obfuscating it but of course its still there and is still the driving force behind all politics
Minimization of it's influence can have positive effects.
how
So tribalism has occurred for all of history so it is pointless to oppose it?
and when
yup
So rape and murder has occurred for all of history so it is pointless to oppose it?
theres a *reason* to oppose murder - because it damages the stability of the group. same goes for rape
and it can be effectively reduced
