I like the pictures. How we’re looking down on them, like they’re bacterium in a microscope. Both infantilising and aggrandising them.
I have no such sentiment. They’re just people... grown men and women. I don’t care. They’re not even lost. They drifted into isolation out of their own volition – how long ago? Probably not even that long ago. Maybe only 500 years when the surrounding civilisations began to decline. Not long, but long enough for the proceeding generations to forget their history. Doesn’t matter, whenever they found themselves cast adrift in the jungle. They’ve inherited their culture, technology, language, religion, arts from continuous contacts with people of the Amazon – the same people who now take their seats in the upper echelons of Brazilian society. Why can’t they? And why are we so self-loathing, why do we think that we are so inherently corrupt that any contact with us will destroy their innocence/ignorance/purity?
You think they’d be stunned to see our world? Rubbish. They’d cope. They’d deal and adapt. Just like we do when our reality is shocked continuously throughout our lives. I’d have em texting in no time. It’s nothing: *they* wont care.
They can’t even explore a few miles out of their “land” to come say hi? Who do these snooty fuckers think they are? I tell you one ecological disaster and *wooosh*, they’re all gone.
Fuck that I say. Send me in with my gat. Man... I’d be like a GOD to them.....
