I completely agree. Even just the profit motive is a more definable, more accurate, and more broadly applicable problem than “tribalism.” Native Americans weren’t harmed by tribalism, they were harmed by bourgeoise property owners who employed racism/colonialism to secure wealth and political power. The systems of capitalism, colonialism and racism that Are the modern state are what’s to blame here.
