I don't blame the Sentinelese tribe. Right now with Covid-19 plaguing almost the entire world, the Sentinelese will not have to worry about getting infected. They will not have to worry about experiencing racism ever. They are living their lives jeje.

If Africa had not been infiltrated by Europeans, the quality of our lives would have been better today even if we may not have access to electronic devices. Just saying. See how happy the people in those pictures are. Their skin looks so smooth. No craw-craw.
well said brother!! Heard they are protected by the government of India (Indian coast guard abi navy) no body is allowed to visit that Island it might pose a threat to the tribe cause they might not have immunity to ordinary flu talk more of other diseases

This people don't really look so isolated. They had contact with the outside world though very little unlike the sentinels.

Their hair look well taken care of, that band too on their head is not locally made as well as the necklace.

Explorers:
The tribes people had stretched ears with wooden discs in their lobes 'as a sign of beauty'

Severe body modification.

Explorers:
Dr Wheeler (left) with helicopter pilot Tony Stuart.

Tony revealed that he'd seen an isolated tribal hut after poor weather forced him off-course.

The pair then decided to investigate and land.
The adventurous spirit of the white man is unmatchable. The tribe could have been cannibalistic but these men still braved the potential dangers and plunged in.

and you think they can't figure it out why?
figure what out? do you know how fabrics are made?

If these people truly have no contact with the outside world, then they won't have access to any of those fabrics and a lot other accessories as can be seen in the pictures

no mind people wey dey talk up and down, they don't even know that these people would have very weak immune systems compared to us. The day they get in contact with the general world then you'll see how weak their systems are.

Simply because their bodies right from their ancestors never developed antibodies known to combat all the modern diseases man has been plagued with

Some of you have very poor understanding of human nature or even human history, humans are tribal animals.

You don't need religion or democracy to get them to start fighting and killing each other, in fact those two will get them to behave in a better way when fight starts.

What you need to get them to start fighting is increase their population while they all live in the same area, or another method is to get them to get in contact with another tribe different from theirs bht living closely. First fights you'll see will stem from the need for territorial control. Watch and observe the life of animals who have no religion and democracy at least with respect to our understanding of the both. You'll see animals always fight over food, territory and mates. Animal way of life is the most basic way of life for humans because all animals look for is food, shelter and very basic 'rights' it's the same for humans, only that humans are a little smarter and more sophisticated.

So you blaming fights on religion and democracy means you only have a shallow understanding of what you're talking about.


It's a lazy man's strategy to always look for where to place blame on.



By the way since time immemorial humans have always fought over things and they'll continue, religion or no religion. Democracy or no democracy.

It's bewildering seeing people blame conflicts on just these two without going back to understanding how living things(animals as the case may be) operate.

Your head is over correct. Enough gbosaaassss for you.
Human like every other animal seeks for nothing but dominance to acquire basic necessities of life which you listed. Every threat to such dominance results to conflict.

You're absolutely correct, I don't know where people get the idea that humans are one perfect product that incapable of evil/conflicts without religion and other systems of organised way of life.

When properly looked into you'll see that what modern people love to hate has had a much more positive impact on life than they'd expect.

Life is all about conflict, the idea of love amongst neighbors with zero conflict is almost unattainable, like impossible because of human nature.

On earth those aforementioned basic necessities are the real gods being worshipped, all living things strive to get those, and any threat to that, would go as you've already described.

Explorers:
The tribe waves as they approach their settlement in their helicopter.

A grandmother was captured clinging to a magazine Dr Wheeler gave her.

The tribe had never seen paper before.


A local woman carrying her baby in a sling.


Dr Wheeler said: 'They showed not the slightest fear of or animosity towards us'
The tribes people looked at us and our helicopter like 'aliens coming from outer space'.

Well done explorer. Come to think of it. A lady used clothe to tie her kid on her body. I'm thinking where she could get that kind of clothes. If they can get clothes like that , sure they can get something to cover their naked body. Just curious.
