I'm writing this because I only found out what sub-clan I am 2 days ago. I knew I was Warsangeli but I never knew further than that because I'm not allowed to ask about qabiil at home.
I found out I'm Bixidur which is interesting because I've dedicated at least 7 months out of the past year to slandering Isaaq on Youtube, Somalinet, Habesha forums and Hiiraan comments. I've written essays, fake articles and at one point contemplated paying somebody who actually knows decent Somali to conduct an interview with me, in which I ask humiliating questions to this person who would pretend to be Isaaq and give what would seem like real answers (I've got a transcript if anybody wants to read it). I think this is Allah's way of punishing me.
When I was posting here regularly under The Nomad handle I was 14 and had no idea about deeper Somali culture (outside of speaking the language, etc). I didn't even know what Somaliland was. Around this time I took an interest in Somali politics and from there I created a exaggerated persona based on the Paltalk qabiil soldiers I'd been observing.
Eventually, it consumed me and I started believing what I was saying. I began to hate Isaaq, MJ's, Hawiye, Ethiopians, etc. and I didn't know why. I once spent 4 hours downloading photoshop and trying to put the head of a malnourished Habesha child on a monkey, istaqfirullah.
From then it got worse and I began learning the art of impersonating other clans/nationalities, etc. to cause maximum controversy. I wrote an article from the perspective of a British man who lived in Hargeisa during colonialism as a slave trader. It was about 4 pages long in Microsoft word, but I never got to post it because it was just before I got permanently banned.
I'd effectively devoted my life to this and I was applying what I learned on the internet to real life. I ignored my neighbours grandmother when she fell over in the street because they had a Xamari accent and I thought they were Hawiye or Marehan. This was probably the lowest point of my life.
I'd like to apologize for everything I've said on this site, jokingly or otherwise. It wasn't real. The only genuine part of my persona I've exposed to this place is my misogyny and mild racism.
I hope you enjoyed learning more about one of the most compelling figures in e-history
