Innate Tribalism

Innate tribalism is the tendency of human beings to form groups based on shared characteristics such as ethnicity, nationality, religion, language, or cultural heritage.

It is a natural human instinct to seek out others who are similar to oneself, and to identify with and defend one's own group against perceived threats from outsiders. This tendency can be seen in many aspects of human behavior, including politics, sports, and social interactions.

While tribalism can promote social cohesion and a sense of belonging, it can also lead to prejudice, discrimination, and conflict between different groups.
