There is no individualism in the United States. Its an illusion. People are sheep who do whatever the government and media tells them. The masses aren't free-thinkers and never will be, and this doesn't apply to just Americans. The whole world was put in a face diaper while hoarding toilet paper within two weeks. I'm sure you mean "individualism" as in "selfishness" - which would be a better way to say it. Even in intact family units people act selfishly. Tribes are no different. Human nature is wicked to the core and a person will use whatever system that's in place to acquire as much material as possible. We were told that toilet paper was going to be scarce and what did people do? They went out and hoarded it. That was one of the biggest social experiments I've ever seen and they did it out in the open with no fear of kickback. Everyone lined up rank and file to get their pokes too. Tribalism, individialism; it doesn't matter. Human beings are just selfish people in whatever social situation they're put in.

Clearly. I was in an Islamic like position because of my particular family and friends during the pandemic which included many Muslims. We lived communal and helped each other as much as possible. It was exceeding disheartening to see the violence, the cruelty, the greed, the savagery of people who were allegedly neighbors, allegedly Christians - not sure what the Buddhists, the atheists, the agnostics, the Hindus were doing. The isolation was real. The media were hateful and unreliable. The underlying fascism in the society became evident. The carceral state rose with vengeance and savagery. Thousands died, their dignity wasted, their bodies stacked in freezers outside hospitals and morgues. Children committed society. Wild boys stalked the streets, shooting each other, assaulting girls! Elders cowered in their homes lonely, hungry and afraid. The poor became poorer. The rich became richer. A society so formed and governed cannot stand. We see that now, globally BUT truly all systems, all politics, all governance is local. Look to your neighbor and be advised by the reality as to next steps. I keep a small close circle and travel advisedly to connect with other civilized and likeminded peoples. And I pray!

Blame Ayn Rand

Please explain, I have never been to a refugee camp

​@@manhoosnickjust look at how muslim populations always dealt an lived with low resources because of colonialism then neocolonialism..... meanwhile how western non muslim populations dealt with toilet paper scarcity in the beginning of covid19 ....... i never been in a refugee camp.... but im sure its the same.....

​@@abdelhakyac7285 good point.

@manhoosnick generally speaking Muslim populated refugee camps (I'm familiar with the Syrian ones), still have some semblance of a Muslim life despite the harsh conditions. People share resources, treat women and children gently and hold each other to Islamic morals. Back in the States we have an active network of women and girls from Latin American refugee camps and migrant camps being forced into underrage prostitution and Adult entertainment. It's rampant here in Connecticut. Even government officials have been arrested for taking part in trafficking.

@@Nuri989 well its simple, someone who tries to exploit our sisters, will be met with what in America they call '2nd amendment'

Logic and Truth are regardless of religion.

Truth is Truth that is what Yeshuah would say

After reading the comments I realized something: they describe the way Christians used to be. That's why it resonates with you. I'm trying to get back to the real Christianity instead of this "Christ exported for wholesale" type of Christianity we have right now. The preachers and churches are so dumb and corrupt now that they'll change the words to benefit themselves. Money is their god.

The truth resonates everywhere

@@desmigreene3052 so why is faith so important in all religions? Why is faith necessary to believe when truth transcends all religions, politics and opinions?

I FEEL YOU SO MUCH. It has instantly become one my goals to move out again to a muslim in the future.

@@ilyasscoww5879😅

Same but i was born in Cardiff but due to that uk is my home but then again i still feel like second class citizen as my cousin was murderd on international soil and we have yet to see uk foreign office to make any attempt to put pressure on the government to give us justice. Which makes me wonder what is my life worth even though im half welsh

Where u live at now? most western born Muslims don't recommend foreign Muslims migrate to the west why didn't you listen to us

@@Trilliman707 I moved out of my country out of disappointments and disillusionment, if my country hadn't been a freaking failed state I probably would have stayed. I moved out in my early/mid 30s, I saw all through my teens and 20s my friends leave one-by-one but I stayed out of hope. If conditions improve half as much, I am booking my flight back home InshAllah.

If I may know, what are you doing in Syria brother?

@@DePeaceHunter As Salāmu'alaykum akhī, I'm painstakingly trying to learn the valuable lessons that have been presented to me here, focusing on making myself worthy to be used by Allāh to serve Him and benefit the Ummah, and praying for forgiveness.

​​@@michaeledwards4665And yet, your visitation to Syria coincided with the displacement of millions of people for whom family, extended family and tribe was their natural bind to the land of Levant. To feel your artificial link to Islam came at the cost of hundreds of thousands of Muslim lives. Your quest isn't noble when it lies on the corpses of others. In this sense, you have no greater claim than the Israeli settler who displaced Palestinians.

@@WildDisaster Thank you for your contribution to this discussion. I'm honoured to be enlightened by whatever it is you just wrote.

I was in Syria and Lebanon for 5 months and if the same situation occurred in the west it would be an apocalypse. Jazak Allah Khir. 🇨🇦

To be honest, you are pretty modest when the reality is a hydrogen bomb being dropped.

Alright, blowing up black powder,- dropping bombs - why does that sound familiar when someone is talking about Islam? Not to mention the countless “petty” terror attacks (stabbings, attacks using cars) happening all over the place in France and the UK.?

Wow.

The ending of bani Adam was perfect

@homosexualeffeminatebiomale3 for your name sake, worshiping your desires as freedom and seeking instant gratification as a value without balancing it with other values like the value of restraint has made you blind to your utter subjugation. There are two types of freedom , one is (freedom to) which is instant gratification a mere herd contentment and the other (freedom from) which is delayed gratification for loftier goals and the mastery of lower desires for higher good.

@homosexualeffeminatebiomale3 Nobody's deciding anything for anybody, we already have societies self-regulating for the collective benefits of the whole. If you want to exercise rampant individualism, sure, move out, leave, go away - you're useless to the community anyways, our community will, InshAllah, survive and thrive without people like you, just like it has for 1400 years. But most people like you disappear, without belonging to anyone or anything except your worldly desires and ambitions. So yes, you're irrelevant.

@homosexualeffeminatebiomale3 😂😂 i dont know what happen to your societies but we dont do that here.....

@homosexualeffeminatebiomale3 please come back when you've not read some anti islamic content that didn't even extrapolate or read any of the sharia, Qu'ran, or hadith properly

@homosexualeffeminatebiomale3the rapist is killed in Islam after being proven guilty. But in western societies, they are jailed for a few measly years, while being provided for and given accommodations. 😮 come to reality.

@homosexualeffeminatebiomale3 if anyone raped one of our sisters he is met with violence, violation of sisters sanctity is considered one of the heinous crimes against Islamic Shari'ah and the penalty is severe.

@homosexualeffeminatebiomale3 Appropriate username.

All are imaginations are running wild as I believed would coincide with the reality in the imaginations of many denizens of London if such a situation was to come into fruition.

In Los Angeles I see yesterday on KZfaq video some folks run into gucci shop and run with bags worth lots of money.

Humans have the capacity to find order in chaos, that's what we do in Pakistan. We have no government to speak of, so we gotta get along with each other on our own. We are a truly libertarian dystopia.

i am compelled to comment here. I am a sindhi living in the northern district of sindh province and we were hit by massive flood last year due to unexpected long duration of monsoon season in the country. bro you wont believe it. the town admin were absent from the scene. where i live, the police was gone and no where to be found, people were living on the side skirts of the roads. some people were living in their flooded houses. but never heard of any killing, witnessed any rioting, and observed any looting or theft form people. I myself was amazed at the order and discipline the people manifested although we were in the most vulnerable security situation ever. Alhamdulillah for Islam.

Pakistan is much more unsafe than any nation out there . Stop with your propaganda

Absolutely brilliant explanation of our so called Western world. The illusion of freedom, which is strictly controlled, is something I have known for a long time. The description of how this developed, and is guided by so called sound Western principals is very accurate. For every so called freedom we supposedly have, constrictions and/or consequences are given freely, regardless of right and wrong and dictates by morality. My hat off to this brilliant mind.

That's why Allah guide him to Islam cuz he has a good heart and intelligent in the same time .

Definitely Malcolm X vibes❤

No, you are a fan of tribalism and nepotism where not the most qualified and deserving people get publicly paid jobs, but those who have the best family relations.

​@@DeYiZhiMusilinif the whole society is akin to a family that aims to support itself, it will actually recognize when a family member is doing wrong and help them find a better fit or improve their conduct in their current responsibilities. Nepotism happens when the family is juxtaposed to the rest of society, in which case it would be a betrayal to the family not to give someone a position of power and wealth, since everyone else is basically an enemy.

I would say most community that still takes God seriously will. Not necessarily muslims

@@DePeaceHunter yes eventually but it won't be as smooth and easy as for the Muslims as the speaker explains... the Muslims live a set of rules from the moment they wake up until they go back to sleep they are protective and respecting family and elder people men know their role females know their role and they don't argue with that Muslims Communities are the most generose, the best healthy food, the best social care they are not afraid to defend themself and call a wrong thing wrong and the more things get tough the more they get closer to their faith and believe it will take it will take decades for other communities to establish social entities and sometimes by force just to regulate the daily life stuff big difference

@khaliilbinammar4700 for muslims it will take few weeks Other communities will take years and maybe decades and some of them will will be wiped from existence

U should and the book that predate it call inveneting reality’

Exactly my thoughts ... We would also seek the most islamically educated person to be an Imam and Judge.

Dear brother, Ask your Lord for Guidance now, before the coming panic. Ask Him for Guidance and know that Guidance is a person..A person who can teach you Dikr Allah and know that Allah says that in that time Dikr Allah will be your substance.

Christians used to be this way. They're not anymore.

Reflection of his Islamic faith background

What country are u from

@@Bell_plejdo568p Oman. My main tribe (Al-Kathiri) is across many other countries.

@@Bo_Hazem oh mashallah what other countries are they from? Also how is Oman doing

@@Bell_plejdo568p Yemen, KSA, UAE, TUNISIA, QATAR, KUWAIT, INDONESIA, MALAYSIA, and scattered on other countries I'm not aware of as well. Oman is doing great, one of the safest countries to live in. Maybe not as rich as other gulf countries, but doing good financially. Hope the best to all of you.

@@Bo_Hazem who that’s amazing, but Oman is still a neocolony of the west like u spend most of ur budget in military and “”rich” by what gdp? Which isn’t a good measure? Just make sure ur country doenst get exploited
