A very good point from @HPluckrose on the origins of "tribe" which may or may not save the word "tribalism" ht @thedecenttechhttps://twitter.com/HPluckrose/status/985810395737874432 …
But what is the premise you are quibbling with? I want to know if you think I am wrong about historical use of the word in English because I might be. I study English Christian history 1300-1700 and there could be contexts I don't know.

That is the only claim I have made and if you disagree with it, you are quibbling with the point I made. If you are pointing out it was used differently in Rome where it is derived from that is not a quibble but an additional tangential fact which I also know to be true.
