  • the indigenous economies that I identify with and would be interested in participating in were destroyed by the British 1000 years before I was born.
  • I'd rather not be a colonizer in an indigenous economy.

destroyed by the British 1000 years before I was born

You acted like they still existed. In that case my original point still applies.

Those gift economies don't work at scale and you would probably have a significantly worse quality of life if you were born to one.

There are still indigenous economies in the world. The ones that I identify with were destroyed by the British though.
