To be clear, I'm not saying that first nations peoples were proto-capitalists. Just what the conditions for being a capitalist are.
And even if they knew what words meant...
So?
They'd still have been genocided by capitalism (in this framework). Do they think it doesn't count when you do it to your own ideology?
Most of the criticisms about capitalism are that it eats its own young!
I think it is only about the meme(?) and how the premise of the content is wrong and through that any discussion about the argument itself is pointless.
Your criticism is valid but it's based on accepting the premise that they already rejected.
