Looks like a cult, tbh.
“The tribe”, “the group” – aka three people.
Also, for the record, I’d like to point out that the Daily Record is a Scottish tabloid.
Sorry, was trying to avoid the daily fail and this seemed to have the funniest title. It does seem like a weird mini sex cult.

Britain with no irony: “You can’t come to a land and act like its yours! We were living here first!”
Well … Do they have a flag?
People living in public woods is okay because colonialism, thanks Lemmy
I read the whole article and I still don’t know if it is real. I hate this timeline.
Same. The fact the site had an obscene amount of ads on mobile made it worse weird
Tf is an ad?
They seem like a UK offshoot of the Black Hebrew Israelites.
If they want to live in tents in the forest instead of yelling at people walking by on the street, I suppose that’s an improvement.
That was certainly… a read. I don’t know enough about Jacobites, anyone have any context on that?
To simplify, it was a political group of Catholic conservatives, which fought the Protestant kings and queens. They were not especially black.
They were not especially black.
lol
There’s a group of people who are (rightly) concerned that black folks have been omitted from history, and have overcorrected to claiming that basically all important historical figures ever were black. Another comment in this thread mentioned the Black Israelites, but there’s also the Nation of Islam (nothing Yakub made could be good of course).
Betting the lost black tribe nonsense is a corruption of some African Christian myth. The Christians were already there by the 1st century, and in no small numbers, building churches, all that. There’s a lot of history there I’m ignorant of.
It’s not a thing I thought I’d write someday 😅
This story gets weirder and weirder.
Kinda feel like we should leave them just to see what happens
Cool and all, but you were not natives of Scotland.
Neither are the Scots if you go back far enough.
All humans are immigrants except MAYBE some Ethiopians still living in the cradle of life.
Idk i feel like 1,000 years should be long enough to naturalize. If they can hold those woods for 1,000 years, they should be considered natives.
