Somali opinion writing mirrors this fixation—fragmented, reactive, and more attuned to political drama than to structural diagnosis. On platforms like Hiiraan Online and other Somali media, essays catalogue familiar divisions: chronic regional rivalries, political feuds, and clan mistrust. Some rally behind factions in the name of federalism or reform; others conclude with broad appeals for unity.
