As ever with these things, this boils down to the human tribal mentality linked to race (Azerbaijani Azeris v Armenians), religion (Islam v Christianity) and language (Azerbaijani v Armenian). When I consider who I am, my ‘ethnicity’ is next to meaningless. An accident of birth. Equally, I care not a jot about anyone else’s ethnicity when I judge another human being. As an agnostic, I see all organised religion as manmade and, essentially, a human control mechanism along with a comforting fairy tale to shore up the human fear of death. Yes, my language is fairly key to my identity but, as someone who speaks 3 other languages, the only reason English takes precedence is another accident of birth. All told, ethnicity, organised religion and language have so much to answer for when it comes to human internecine conflict.

@MrBeautifulmountain How is it an “idiotic comment”? It’s factually and historically correct. Your saying it’s an “idiotic comment” is the only idiotic comment here, m8. 👍

@MrBeautifulmountain No. I want to condemn people for fighting and killing others for having a different religion, ethnicity and language.

@OlafKlaus-kx3kn It’s about religion, ethnicity and language and the human tribal mentality, bro. You yourself just gave the game away with your own phrase “ethnic cleansing”, bruh. I would never hurt another human being for ethnic or religious reasons because I’ve been educated and brought up not to think of myself in those terms and therefore not to think of others in those terms, bud. It’s primitive beyond belief, bruv. If you can’t see this, you may be one of them, brother.

@MrBeautifulmountain No it’s not. Language is a key component of people’s prejudice towards others as it feeds into the they are ‘different’ narrative. Along with ethnicity and religion. If the OP was “poorly worded” that makes your original reply to it disastrously worded.👍

@MrBeautifulmountain Just for the record, m8, it doesn’t even have to be a different language. In the UK, people judge and discriminate on accent alone yet we all speak the same language. This judgement and discrimination is only ramped up x10 when we’re dealing not with just different accents but different languages.
