In  the earth is precious, chief seattle says that man did not “weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it.” what attitude is he implicitly criticizing by saying this?

By the sentence given as an example, the attitude that is being criticized by Chief Seattle in The Earth is Precious is the attitude of not taking control of what happens in life.

When saying "wave the web" he is referring to create one of his own, not being part of an existing web made probably by others, like a "strand".

By taking control of your life, or anything in our lives, we cannot blame anyone but ourselves for what happens, we take responsibility for what happens and we are also capable of changing the way we are weaving any time we want.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
