I thought my response to JuelZ deserved it's own topic. It is a rarely addressed subject.
Do you know how truly pathetic, defeated, and broken this response sounds? I àm being completely honestly.juelz wrote: Sun May 23, 2021 12:24 pm I am not anti-marexaan they are my reer abti, I just state the facts. Puntland and MJ are stronger than ever out game plan is to get PM position and let hawiye take the presidency and run for the presidency next cycle. Farmaajo has truly done a lot of damage to marexaan and Darood as a whole. He wanted to stay in power by force and ofcourse that will never materialize in the 21st century. I am all for democracy and will never support a thug trying to stay in power by all means. He has not invested in Gedo the infrastructure is in ruins, no hospitals the schools are in shambles. Kismayo has been at war for 30+. Farmaajo has not contributed anything except promoting more animosity among Somali clans. The army he thought he was building turned against him. If I was him I would resign and be embarrassed to even sit there. He is not even invited to the FGS & FMS meeting.
It is not only you. Probably the most informing understanding I got from Puntland jnder5 Deni Administration in all of this---is that our northeastern brothers are still suffering something called delayed grief.
It is someone where the full cycle of grief is stunted or blocked from completion.
It could be 20 years and the grief is still suspended; it never disappears. It has to be completed and then closed to move on without it. It is why all human cultures, religious or pagan, developed or primitive all recognize the existence of grief and have a way to process it.
In delayed grief, it could be 20 years later and the person is living a shell of a life, paranoid, looking over their shoulders, perpetually vulnerable, and systematically estranged from loved ones. They can't bear anything associated with the original trauma.
It is really heavy, but the reason I am not even mildly with any strong views against the northeast is the realization that it is very possibly thag everything being projected is grounded the delayed grief existing in that community.
MX was in the thicket, surrounded by the hostile south. They hit us, we swung back and connected with 3 or 4 for 1 of ours.
Jug jug ku timid ciil ma leh.
Marehan completed his grief from the initial expulsion from the capital and the nation's fall.
It is why even Marehan was not much later even leading an alliance of JVA with the old grief.
It is why Marehan are the largest Darod community in Mogadishu today even, maybe even 2 or more X equal to the rest of Darod there; it's why even they continue to flock there now.
His grief has long been completed. He is free.
I think being isolated in the periphery geographically and surrounded even on 2 and a 1/2 fronts by water and 1 and 1/2 by Harti and family, and not even feeling like they got a good swing in the Gaalkacyo tussle before the ceasefire on top of the original trauma that took place in Mog, endings a long basic understanding of their perception of Somalia and their place in it on top of the Kismaajo Morgan vs MX 2nd big remigration...
... they never processed, came to terms with, and complete the cycle of grief.
This form ls the foundation for every single agitation and maladaptation and fear and paranoia, and anger and estrangement, and even passivity and submission to the vulnerability assumed as knowledge imparted by the trauma. It is why northeast becomes apocalyptic whenever Farmaajo exhibits some control and challenge----I mean they express more confidence in what the Madasha is allegedly capable of more than the Madasha and all their supportrrs combined assume about their abilities.... Because for the person suffering delayed grief, the trauma's power is all encompassing and reassertion of the original shock is literally and figuratively unbearable. It has to be willed and fought from occuring again
But it is all in their head held in bondage to limitless and all powerful bind of delayed grief.
