Unity of mind is a reflection of primitive tribalism.
Episodes of human history rife with baldly profane
acts of human moral indecency intrude on the public
consciousness that somewhere in the world
an atrocity has taken place of such undisguised
savagery that emerging details shock and disgust
even those with little sympathy for the victims
or the aggressors. The very evidence of sadistic
cruelty unsurpassed by the most warped mind in
barbaric rituals of mutilation, rape and butchery.
A matter of pride and jubilation to those exacting
terror and bloodshed who carefully record their
blood-curdling depravity in proof of their sworn
dedication to deliver death in any form and with
any tortuous embellishments to innocent people
whom vicious psychopaths deem fit for death.
Even so, as outcasts from civilizational norms the
greater community with whom they share bloodlines
stand foursquare in support of these proto-human
outcasts, flinging aside their own facades of civil
order and homage to human rights in a display of
mutual tribal loyalties while holding the victims
guilty of overreach in their existential response.
Revealing the raw reality of the thin veneer of
societal justice inherent in civilized communities.
