He’s just going to get people killed. But that’s ok he doesn’t give a shit anyways, so it’s moot. What are a few thousand dead peasants when we could make big stock number go up?

    As opposed to…who exactly? That one tribe in the sentinel Islands that hasn’t been contacted by modern civilization yet?

      Sure. Also many other cultures who have been contacted and haven’t been completely destroyed.

      But the point is not that we should copy some tiny tribe’s way of life, the point is that western dominionism is not the only way that humans are capable of organising their societies. There are likely many other ways that have never been tried yet that are much better than what we have now.

        So… would you ignore all of recorded history, and most of anthropological records that dictate humanity has always been in a race to find new and exciting ways to kill each other?

          I don’t think that that’s the only reasonable intpretation you can draw from anthropology and archaeology.

          If you want a good example of an alternative interpretation, I’d recommend reading Wengrow and Graeber’s boom The Dawn Of Everything.
