Full agreement, and I think the "tear it down" narrative often impedes thinking of actual feasible ways that we can work to find more equitable paths forward. Landback is a great movement because rather than saying "kick white people out of North America" it says "there's a lot of land that we can give back to the people we stole it from without drastic consequences to us, we should be doing that".
I'm a huge supporter of working to give tribes further sovereignty and means to enforce it beyond treaties with the countries that keep breaking treaties with them. Now obviously we need to be prioritizing the wants and needs of individual tribes and nations, but those that wish to be treated as sovereign nations on the world stage should be. Hell, the Navajo Nation wants to be in the UN, and that's a completely reasonable ask that you can advocate for even if you aren't in a settler colonial nation.
There are more radical ideas as well, but there are realistic and achievable goals, that we'd be doing a lot more good by advocating for than just virtue signaling about how all this land is stolen and leaving it at that. Also free all indigenous political prisoners and treat the crisis of missing and murdered indigenous women as the crisis it is.
