Who do you consider Soomaali?

[Jeesto]

Do you consider minorities such as Madhiibaan, somali bantus, and cadcads/mixed coastal people Soomaali?

Discuss please.

 

[fox]

Its madhibaan not midgaan.

 

[SOMALI GENERAL]

Bantus aren't Somali, they're a seperate ethnicity. Only those of Cushtic origin can be easily assimilated.

 

[TheSayid]

i only consider those with somali/cushitic speaking origins somali.

 

[anonymous34]

Bantus arent Somali. Its a simple fact which many on these website cant seem to process.


Just like 1+1=2 not 3

 

[fox]

Madhibaans are dir so I don't know why they are on the list.

Bantus that live in somalia, are nationally somali. They are not ethnically somali.

Xamar cadcads, shanshiyos and barwanis that live in somalia are somali. They are not ethnically somali.

 

[Jujuman]

They're ethnically not Somali but they're Somali citizens who should have the same rights as other ethnic Somalis.

My previous paragraph doesn't apply to Madhibaan who are ethnically Somali anyway.

@SOMALI GENERAL @TheSayid Are raxanweyns pure somalis or a mixed clan? How come they speak af maay

They're pure sxb. Af maay is a dialect that's significantly diverged that some even consider it a language.

Af maay isn't a dialect. It's another language.

Proof? I'm pretty sure they aren't Dir as they're considered the dalites of somalia

Their the descendants of the down looked at jobs like smithing, sorcery and circumcision performers, their pure Somali/Cushtite though

 

[government]

Gaalo aren't Somalis

Pure the only difference is they stopped with nomading a long time ago an settled in the valley because of that their qabill system kinda "broke" as they became stationary and back then qabill was tied with nomading

 

[SOMALI GENERAL]

I know sxb. I consider it a "dialect" for political reasons.

 

[ItsHanna]

If your parents are Somali so are you.

The people who talk shit about Somali Bantus should be ashamed of themselves it's very disgraceful behaviour.

 

[emptyheartsflow]

There's no such thing as Somali, only qabils.

I have nothing in common with a Northerner or Somalis in Kenya/Ethiopia.

 

[Bahal]

Everyone knows what an ethnic Somali is.

 

[SOMALI GENERAL]

Everyone knows what an ethnic Somali is.

SJW folks are tryna remix what an ethnic Somali is.

 

[Jeesto]

Gaalo aren't Somalis

who you talking about?
