Malawi Albino's murdered for body parts...we are inches away from the "State of Nature"

Malawi's albinos are at risk of "total extinction" amid escalating attacks against them for their body parts, the United Nations warned
Albinism is a genetic condition that leads to little or no pigment in the eyes, skin and hair. The southern African nation has about 10,000 albinos, according to the U.N.
In some African countries, albinos' body parts are believed to bring wealth and good luck. As a result,attackers chop off their limbs and pluck out organs, and sell them to witchdoctors.
Even after albinos are killed, some attackers go a step further and steal their remains from graveyards, said Ikponwosa Ero, the United Nations' expert on albinism.

Jesus!  I thought the Middle East was a cesspool of 10th Century thinking and then I read about this today.

The human race is screwed.

In the Middle East and Africa we have ignorance, tribalism and barbarity running rampant and in the West we're concerned about letting me that dress like women/identify as such being the most pressing issue of the day.

If Westerners actually took a real look at the world they'd be embarrassed by what they view as important and maybe realize that we're inches away from the "State of Nature".

The pure state of nature or "the natural condition of mankind" was deduced by the 17th century English philosopher Thomas Hobbes, in Leviathan and in his earlier work On the Citizen.[2]Hobbes argued that all humans are by nature equal in faculties of body and mind (i.e., no natural inequalities are so great as to give anyone a "claim" to an exclusive "benefit"). From this equality and other causes in human nature, everyone is naturally willing to fight one another: so that "during the time men live without a common power to keep them all in awe, they are in that condition which is called warre; and such a warre as is of every man against every man". In this state every person has a natural right or liberty to do anything one thinks necessary for preserving one's own life; and life is "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short" (Leviathan, Chapters XIII–XIV). Hobbes described this natural condition with the Latin phrase bellum omnium contra omnes (meaning war of all against all), in his work De Cive.
