“Humans are tribal. They’ll join or create tribes around anything. There are tribes around sports teams, clothing styles, music genres, and movie franchises. There are tribes based on careers, vehicle preferences, and phone brands. Tribes are based on diseases, health conditions, and disabilities. There are political tribes. There are tribes based on the country you live in or where you were born. Tribes form around religious beliefs. Tribes can be literal, virtual, or somewhere in between. Each individual can be in many tribes if those tribes aren’t in open conflict. … Enjoy your tribes, but don’t give one too much control.” (05/28/25)
