Nah, I was adressing the idiology already present there.
I don't dispute that humans are in essence a keystone species, part of nature, etc, etc but the OP talked about indiginous people specifically. We can just as easily say that the japanese were ecologically compatible....up to a point.
The only reason it's brought up is due the idea of the indiginous in tune with nature who was essentially not limited in his ability to further exploit but chooses not to.
Shouldn't you consider individual populations, cultures separately, and not be lumping all native people's together? One can do something another didn't.
