I wish I could time travel to Somalia circa 1950.

I just wanna see how pre-civil war Somalis were like, before we became wahhabized arab-bootie lickers.

And remember, Somali women and girls rarely wore hijabs back then and jilbabs were not invented :ftw9nwa:

I just wanna see all the regal and elegant Somali girls walking around in their majestic guuntinos with their long hair flowing like African Queens. The classic Somali men in their clean white robes.

I wanna see the elegant Somalis of the 19th century, you know, the ones Richard Burton wrote about.

I wanna see authentic Somali culture...our true cushitic dhaqan. Because the way Somalis are now is so vastly different from how we were for a thousand years. We completely changed after the civil war. *sigh*

I sometimes fantasies making Narcos theme series about Somalia, about political change in the 1966-1969

We wuz like this before the european gaalo colonised us
 
Somalia was xaar before nation collapse. Somalia is better than ever right now.

I'm not talking about the infrastructure or development of Somalia, i'm talking about the Somali people themselves. How we were for thousands of years until the civil war. Our pride, our elegance, our intelligence, our culture, so much was lost due to the civil war.

We raided each other for livestock for a millennia and dropped like flies due to drought, nothing special, but compared to other African ethnic groups we rank high by sheer virtue of not being enslaved.
 
Let's say for arguments sake that Somalia was like how you described it before the "wahhabis" came, why is that a good thing? If anything in our culture goes against our religion then it's something bad and should be changed.

in what ways are Somalis Arab? We don't speak Arabic, we don't have Arab DNA, and we don't even look Arab. It's funny because Christian Amharas are literally more Arab than you. Lol. Amharas are genetically closer to the Prophet SAW than you 😂
