Even four legged denizens of our planet or winged life criss crossing our skies fight each other sometimes, but not without a reason . But a perpetual dislike or hatred among the members of the same species is not the norm.  The reasons that create a wedge between groups and individuals can be as simple as different skin color over which you don’t have control and is no fault of yours.

Being neutral for a second may empty the junk that we have collected in our minds over a period of time
