As you westerners watch the huddled, terrified masses of people in Ukraine, think about your emotional reaction.

Then, think about your emotional reaction to hearing/seeing huddled masses of people in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Congo, or Ethiopia.

Are they the same emotions?

If there is any difference, that is your primal tribe speaking to you.

Primal.

Humanity will not scale any further if we do not subjugate the tribal emotions. We must, first, be human.
