EGALITARIANISM vs TRIBALISM

EGALITARIANISM vs TRIBALISM having an honest discourse on fundamental differences

On all fronts, Western European egalitarian systems of government are under attack as being the source of slavery, tyranny and inequity, but is this criticism legitimate? Marxist "intellectuals" place blame for all failings of Western civilization on capitalism and free market systems of economics that have evolved over the last several centuries, consistently omitting the many scientific and material advances in civilization that would have been impossible under any other economic system. Their arguments always focus on the "zero sum game" argument that if some succeed, it can only happen through exploitation of others. The oppressor/victim narrative is their hole card, but is it true? In a word "NO", but that has not stopped them from spreading this big lie. Another big lie is that indigenous societies are superior in sharing wealth and treating all members in their ranks as equals. Tribal cultures were/are notoriously unequal and led by the most powerful of the tribe through a natural pecking order that mostly depends on physical strength or guile, and the ability of the most able to kill or subjugate rivals. Tribes gained wealth and power by killing off the adult males of rival tribes, taking their limited possessions and capturing/ enslaving the women and children of that tribe.  This served the dual purpose of eliminating threats posed by rival male warriors and overcoming the inbreeding that was common in primitive cultures. Tribal cultures are almost exclusively communist societies, most often being stone age cultures depending on good weather and strong warriors for survival. Tribes are usually nomadic, hunting and gathering in a natural world that forces them to live within very limited means; through necessity, not choice. Property becomes what you can carry with you as you travel around following the migration cycles of your food sources and seasonal weather. What is my point? The reason globalist megalomaniacs are promoting indigenous cultures in such a big way; they want people to live an austere primitive lifestyle requiring few natural resources, and be easy to control since they lack the technological means to resist. Ending modern Western industrial society is an imperative for worldwide Marxist/technocratic control to succeed. Selling the notion that mankind will destroy itself unless it returns to a very austere existence is part and parcel of the entire radical environmental movement, not because it's true, but because it is much easier to subordinate and enslave those living under a primitive, tribal system. Meanwhile, the global elite will fly hither and yon in their private jets to enormous estates scattered around the world, all the while telling the rapidly shrinking middle class that we must sacrifice everything we own for the common good of humanity. The only question is; will we allow this injustice to happen by failing to defend the many advantages that egalitarianism and laissez-faire economics have over tribalism/communism? Are we going to allow the politically correct anarchists and dimwitted communist useful idiots kill the goose that lays the golden eggs for fear that some might be offended by our success? The saying goes that "misery loves company" and it is no less true that "failure resents success", especially by those living in a zero-sum Marxist paradigm that cannot comprehend the win-win outcomes typical of laissez-faire economic systems. Forcibly taking from hard working entrepreneurs willing to sacrifice and take risk to reward those unwilling to do either, is not only unfair, it will destroy incentives to improve and innovate; harming the whole society. A perfect example of this dynamic is the economic decline of South Africa with the end of apartheid and the takeover by the communist backed ANC. Under communism, South Africa has declined economically as the advanced industrial society is looted, decays, and collapses under the weight of repressive central planning and leaders that don't have a clue how free market economies work.  If the goal is the deindustrialization and destruction of advanced economies, the transition from egalitarian systems of government to tribalism is certainly a very large step in the right direction. Are we really stupid enough to let Western advanced civilization and rule of law die without so much as token resistance? Wake up, people!
