We want do not only want to be part of a tribe, we want our tribe to be the best tribe.

The issue is when this changes from “I want my tribe to be the best” to “It’s my tribe so it is the best”. Nationalism vs Patriotism as I understand the terms.

Likely other actors were in more things and more viewed things but in more specific roles or types of film so you don’t get that feeling of saturation.
