The U.S. has largely been able to avoid tribalism (not all, but most), because of our process of melting different tribes into a new cultural pot. This is, of course, exactly what the Liberals have been trying to destroy…both by emphasizing “diversity” (including the silly “salad bowl” concept of society) and by creating new tribes (unions, GLBT, race, gender, etc.) that can be pitted against one another with the intention of dividing and conquering. 

Ann Coulter is right…there are demonic forces at work here.

I can see the problem they were trying to address: The abuse of credit-worthiness within a household by taking into account the entire household income.  Including the opening of accounts by non-earners based on the income of the earner – but the earner doesn’t know that the spouse or children is opening all these other card accounts.

But it would have been so much better for everyone, to implement a better solution: To open a household-income account for a non-earner based on the earner(s) income, the earner(s) must co-sign.  All problems solved.

Inaugurated by the nations of Europe, due to the policy of international hate?!?!
So, evil Western imperialism is the cause of Swahili and Chinese, too!

I think that the multiplicity of languages occurred due to geographic isolation, and the same is true even of differences of dialect and idiom within a language.

It may be parochial, but  we each all do love our native tongue.  Good luck to those who would force a foreign tongue on everyone for the purposes of “the simple means of familiarizing the mind with things, and of the communication of knowledge.”

What of the knowledge of weather conditions in the north, or of its snow?  Eskimo languages have a far wider variety of words for snow than does, say, the English language.  Which is more communicative of “snow”?  Some languages have twice the number of words to define “love” than others.  Do we all choose the simpler communication forced by the fewer word choices, or the richer communication possibilities of a greater number of word choices?  Who defines the rules by which we decide which language “wins”?

The demands of being an individual in a polity like America’s calls for more grit, insight, and character than many people can sustain. It’s easier to blame “them” and “society” than it is to acknowledge that perhaps the fault lies not in the stars. That’s why leftists don the protective cloak of tribalism. O, brave new world where my tribe/skin color/genitalia/ethnicity do the thinking and deciding for me!

The multiplicity of languages is due to the policy of international hate, inaugurated by the nations of Europe to promote the selfish purposes of rulers. Barbarism is diversity; civilization is unity. The human race is one, provided it is civilized, and it should have but one language. Language is a tool, and time consumed in acquiring skill in the use of more than one tool designed for the same end, is wasted. The standing armies of Europe obstruct the way to unity of language. The time will come when all civilized peoples will speak one tongue, probably the English. Then language will cease to be a mere vain accomplishment, and become what it ought always to have been, the simple means of familiarizing the mind with things, and of the communication of knowledge.
