Why are Somalis so anarchic?

Everywhere there are Somalis there is chaos. Weddings, xaflads, dugsi, the masaajid, uni, you NAME it. There are always one or two miskeen people that try to keep order but most people don't give a shit regardless of their age. The elders don't care and the children are something else entirely. They way Somali kids behave you would think that their parents make them snort a line of coke before leaving the house. ADHD on steroids

The best example I can think of is the first time I went to Somalia. I asked my mum for my ticket so I could see what seats we were meant to be sitting in and she told me "kkkkkk, qof waxaas raacayo ma jiro ee kursiga aad heshid waa nasiibkaa". Lmao shit was so true, people gave no fucks. We were flying with Jubba Airways and the air hostesses and the pilot were all Russian. All of them gave up on getting people to sit in their assigned seats lmaoo :mjlol: The second hand embarrassment was real:francis: Why can't we follow rules? Why can't Somali functions/events be orderly? This is a serious question

Not really only us. Evn high iq asians suffer from this. Mainly hong kong ppl.


Chinese people have no manners and their tourists are hated in Asia and all around the World. Because they have zero manner and they are arrogant. At least Somalis are fun and funny and have some human decency.

I have heard theories that the rudeness displayed by Chinese tourists is linked to the cultural revolution.

It is. 5000 years of culture was destroyed by the "Cultural Revolution" in China. They basically destroyed many temples, but also many symbolic places in China. Taoism and Buddhism were targetted and monks and religious leaders killed or expelled from China.
I heard that the Nationalists who left China to Taiwan have taken with them the Chinese Culture lmao.
China now is a capitalist with a communist costume. People consumme and they are cultureless. Their ancestors were shamed.
The good is that the New Generation seems to be more open toward the past and they are slowly getting back to their roots.
Communism is a danger and a cancer for a Society.

:mjlol: Check out the comments.
@Yaquub The people in the video are actually Chinese mainlanders. They are the problematic ones. Chinese people from Hong Kong and Taiwan also complain about mainlanders

That would make sense tbh. If you also factor in that most of mainland China was in poverty just a couple of decades ago it would make even more sense. Most of the tourists are people who have attained wealth very recently and have never been outside of the country. They are less likely to know how to behave.

Maybe we are so anarchic for similar reasons? Most of our population was rural before the civil war and many Somalis that migrated to the West came straight out of baadiyo

True. We don't have any clue of the way our ancestors behaved. The Japanese have books, philosophies around being polite and how to behave. That's why they are the most well organised and well appreciated tourists in the World. We can learn to change. The Chinese have seeing money just recently and they were reclusive and self-centred. They don't know how to behave with non-Chinese people.
 
You are absolutely correct sxb. I've thought about this for years. I can't count how many times I've discussed this with family and friends, about how Somalis engage in societies. This issue probably goes together with why we can't seem to fix the problems back in Somalia.

You might be on point that the reason is that the majority of Somalis come from baadyio, and has a harder time integrating/conform into society.

We are not dumb people, but what we are is unrefined, so we come off as ignorant. We lack discipline in our culture.

It's more related to income class more than anything else.

Poor Japanese and Hong Kong indhoyar are just as loud and obnoxious as our poor... which makes up the majority of our numbers.

We just think Somalis are the worst but that's only because we're more exposed to them as compared to others.

Most other ethnic groups complain about their own people just as much.

If you want to fix your image then a cultural revolution won't do... you'll need an economic revolution that creates a larger middle class.

I have even noticed it within my own family. Most of my family lived in Xamar before the war but after the war my grandparents moved back to pl and some of my uncles and aunties were raised in a nomadic environment before they came to the West. They behave veryyy differently to my parents.

I think it's a mixture of both cultural and economic factors tbh. I wouldn't say poor but rather less educated Hong-Kong and Japanese people may be more loud and anarchic than the educated ones but I don't believe they're as bad as uneducated Somalis. That's where the cultural factors come in. I don't know much about Hong-Kong but manners and social etiquette are very important and systemic in Japan. Their language even has a very complex honorifics system
