What you say there, seems to me correct. The State is no nation but a constituted legal person, a signed paper document, a formal organization. And so legalists are lying when they talk about 'first nations', as if The State and the Citizenry (members) is some kind of 'nation 2.0'.

There are only nations and organizations. So you are right. 'Civic nationalism' is organizationalism... And its purpose is to crush the true nation, from 'above', using legality and jurisdiction. By Lemkin's own definition, this is genocidist. Legalists hate their own people and its societal structure.
