        I can see that. I’m willing to bet the lived experiences of individuals from different communities/tribes/nations/continents/etc. aren’t all that different from one another. Typically one of the arguments for tribalism comes from finding community with people who have the same experiences as you.

        It starts with finding things that make us the same, not different.
