I am in no way a fan of tribal ways of life ;) The tribal system is based on total anti-individualism and to me, (in a certain way) individualism is almost a religion.
Oppression, loneliness, helplessness - all these works even better in a tribal or quazi-tribal sosiety than in capitalistic one, especially if you are looked upon as even a bit "strange" or a bit of outcast.
there is a splendid book about living in a real tribe:
