What do you guys think?
Would a benevolent dictator ever work out in Somalia?

What if the dictator was Mīdgan or 0.5?Can't be someone tainted by qabil. Also needs to command respect. A moderate but pro deen leader can work. If anyone then more of an accountable strongman President.
Culturally they would have 0 legitimacy. Thats like Romania letting a gypsy be president

His tribe would still get more gibs than other Somalis.
Maybe a benevolent Somali dictator would uplift all Somalis, but probably uplift his own tribe even more.
With 2 generations of nationalist propaganda, qabil power can be erased. We need to beat qabil out of the minds of young Somalis
It'd probably not be recieved well by the rest of the population. I mean qabil is literally the reason why I can't see this working out.
In that case they would have to be a Darood. Can't see an Isaaq or Hawiye dictatorship working either
Why? All three of the big qabils are power hungry and liable to engage in qabilism

You leave issaq out of equation because they don't want anything to do with Somalia in regards to politics. Secondly,.you got both H and D in the political class a duopoly politics . There has never been a president other than D or H block FROM 1960 ( THE ONLY DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED PRESIDENT AUN) to 2020.
You don't speak for all Isaaqs sxb - this is a theoretical situation. Most Isaaq would support a unified greater Somalia that was based on deen, equality, and justice without nepotism or qabilsm. Secondly, Hawiye, the Irir Samaale brothers of Isaaq, haven't done anything to you, and if anything, along with Djiboutians, are among the most sympathetic Somalis to the cause of Somaliland

I mean we have an uneducated populace who would vote for a shitty nepotistic leader as long as it helped their qabil. I honestly don't see democracy working out in our contemporary Somalia.

Thats exactly why we make their qabiil and face anonymous so people don't know who it is and will vote based off of who will do the most for somalis

InAdeer, most Isaaqs agree with me. Walal that ship sailed along time ago in regards to the "Somaliweyne" , the "shanta somaliyeed" that people refer to are not governed by Xamar nor would it ever will be. Hopefully, Djibouti will continue.

And What Is Not There Is Always More Than There.
I'd like to think we would be leaps and bounds ahead on the world stage.
Someone like Mummar Gahddafi, who ran his country with his people's interest in mind, agressive and getting it done, and tried to unite Africa through a gold currency.
He/She would be assassinated however, because no one wants Somalia to be prosperous and wealthy nation.

It should be a woman. Since you idiots are always reminding us women don’t have qabil it’s perfect.
preferably someone strong, powerful, who easily assimilates to power and keeps quiet about her qabil. I think I know someone like that...
best believe I would rule Somalia like a king and would also take notes from araweelos reign in how to deal with disorderly men..snip snip
