So, what is it now, one has to live in a portion of the country to call themselves what the nationality is in that part of the country or does ancestry come into it and if ancestry comes into it, what about all those descendants living in other parts of the country, do they also bear the same grudges from something way beyond their own birth ?
Everyone, just look at yourselves, look at your immediate ancestry, if you can, look beyond, what do you see, a pure blood and possibly inbred whatever, or what can be described as a mongrel, a Heinz 57 variety. The latter is what I believe most people are and if that, how can anyone draw an allegiance to any part of their ancestry, and if they do, why, why that part ?
Could it be in reality, the choosing of one part of an ancestral cause to follow is more about the self in the present time, an anger perhaps, genetic, historical or just the way one is and you need a grindstone to grind upon, so why not dig up a past cause of choice and there grind away. Why not, it is a safe option, safe, because most people in present society care more about their present, the present that affects them and their family, not past families long since deceased.
Anger about the past, is irrelevant, it is the now that matters and there the future, look into that future, ask yourself what do you want and by that what does everyone else want, your way, or just peace, health and prosperity.
If it is a mortal need to grind an axe, then pick those that manipulated the lives of all through history to the present, those being those that always profit from strife and hardship, for they are the same in history as they are now in the present. And of those that continue to rule and profit, again, what better way to take the populace eye of the ball than allow tensions based on past race and nationality, yet another case of planting the seeds of divide and conquer.
Will we never learn ?
