The sentinelese see right through that bullshit. Leave them alone.

[-] DharmaCurious@lemmy.world 44 points 1 year ago

Sometimes I wonder if they're the last sane people on the planet. Then I remember we have antibiotics, and my mom has a power wheelchair, and I wonder if there can't be some middle ground.

[-] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee 14 points 1 year ago

Solarpunk and anarchism are what you're looking for

[-] DharmaCurious@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Found the theories a few years ago, desperately hoping we find the reality at some point

[-] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

I have faith that it'll work out. 2020 felt like a training point in society and I think we'll eventually be able to realize this newfound social awareness a lot of us have come to obtain. Also, join an org if you're able/currently not in one!

[-] OrnateLuna 1 points 1 year ago

Well restructuring all of society takes a lot of work and time and luck. And hey you can contribute to it as well.

[-] Hexagon@feddit.it 12 points 1 year ago

They have the true "reject modernity, return to monke" vibe

[-] toxicbubble@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

they wouldn't need antibiotics if they're isolated

[-] Nythos@sh.itjust.works 21 points 1 year ago

Infection is still a thing

[-] victron@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

I hope this is a bad joke.

[-] Rambi@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Not unless bacteria is somehow covering the entire surface of the earth except the tiny little island they live on

[-] atmur@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

Yep. From the North Sentinel Island wikipedia page:

The islanders have been observed shooting arrows at boats, as well as at **low-flying helicopters. **

If they’re shooting at a helicopter, I don’t think they’ll think about a bunch of drones any differently.

[-] nxfsi@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Well the north alabamese also shoot at helicopters yet would totally be fooled by a giant face in the sky

[-] DeathWearsANecktie@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

People trying to shoot down a helicopter with bows and arrows is a hilarious thing to picture

[-] Gormadt 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Well they did succeed in making it go away, so there's that

Edit: This is a bit of a tongue in cheek joke

[-] Gormadt 9 points 1 year ago

At this point I'm getting concerned with the amount of climate change we've got going on if they may be forced to relocate in the not too distant future

[-] RegularGoose@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 year ago

Relocate? To where? The whole planet is fucked, not just the tropics.

[-] Lowered_lifted@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Pacific Northwest is probably okay that's why we are trying to build dual power to replace the government when it collapses and fight the Nazis who want to do the same

[-] RegularGoose@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Did you forget what happened there last summer?

[-] Lowered_lifted@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Do you live here? Probably okay means survivable, literally over a billion people will die if they can't move from the unsurvivable parts

[-] RegularGoose@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I don't need to live in a place to know that heat domes, droughts, and rampant wildfires do not describe a place that's "probably survivable." You will not be able to live there 15-20 years from now.

[-] Lowered_lifted@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I both live there and am planning to survive, and keep as many people alive with me as I can, have fun with whatever you're doing buddy

[-] RegularGoose@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

You can plan whatever you want, it doesn't change reality.

[-] Lowered_lifted@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

You're the one who is denying reality. I will be keeping my community alive through mutual aid and I hope your selfish ass perishes lmao

[-] Lowered_lifted@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

This would be the best reason to contact, not to convert them as Christian goons are trying to do
