Crabism Race and Religion Daniel Beauzil

Under this new title "Universal Crabism", the author introduces a neologism that is more than just a word; it is the end product of his observation and research in the world of mollusks, specifically in the crustacean family. Like a Lafontaine of the modern days, he plunges his looks into deep waters to discover the crab and his behavior. Crabism conveys a state of mind, a mentality, either innate or acquired, that fosters the social destruction or demotion of others, and sometimes, even, oneself. It is essentially a retrograde, a receding movement, and a negative mindset aiming at blocking, blindfolding, and stopping one's neighbor from achieving an equal or higher goal than oneself.
