Deep in the heart of the African Congo comes the call of the ancient Fukarwi tribe...:


"Psst...where the f*ck are we?"

They were contacted, in fact, and moved up into a remote area to get away from the Jehovah's Witnesses.

That's [cough bulls**t cough] interesting.
 
2011-06-24 02:28:57 PM
Well, they're farked now.

I saw a documentary on those tribes last night. There are tribes in the area where people have favorite baseball teams and wear wristwatches.

Isn't this a repeat of a repeat of a fake story run by the Daily Mail on what is apparently a slow news day?

Boy are they gonna be excited the first time they go to Arbys!

Interesting. Please tell us more about these peopel, Dr. Krippendorf!

Brazil has a policy of not contacting such tribes but working to prevent the invasion of their land to preserve their autonomy.

It's called the Prime Directive, duh

What exactly is the Cool tag for? That within a decade all the survival techniques and tribal wisdom will be replaced by a dependency on tinned meats and Luther Vandross CDs?
 
2011-06-24 02:35:47 PM
Should screw with them and drop a few dozen iPones. Let's see what happens when you jump start "progress".

Maybe Brazil has their own version of "Survivor"?

How can I gain from this?
 
2011-06-24 02:38:09 PM
OK. Now leave them alone. They probably are happier than we are.

I am sure they have better food than Arby's locally.

The most recently identified tribe live in four large, straw-roofed buildings and grow corn, bananas, peanuts and dried animal feces.

Yup, way better than Arby's.

Get down there with some glass beads and smallpox infected blankets.

Depends on how much guilt you want your descendants to feel.

They don't appear to be identical photographs, but these are awfully similar to the ones released two years ago.
 
2011-06-24 02:41:49 PM
This is only in the Daily Mail because they're worried they might try and move to the UK.
 
2011-06-24 02:42:11 PM
Maybe they can hang out with the Tasadays?

Starbucks has already broke ground on a location in the village square.

In that first picture the natives are all looking up.... I thought those were supposed to be satellite photos?
 
2011-06-24 02:47:09 PM
They need to find Jesus.

So they can kick his ass.

ultraholland: pretty sure I remember this photo from at least two years ago

Different photo. Same BS story about an "uncontacted tribe." They just used blurrier photos this time so that the evidence of contact is less obvious.

There are no "un-contacted tribes."

Today's newly discovered uncontacted* tribe comes to you from the Vale do Jovari Reservation on the Brazilian/Peruvian border

FTA:Three large clearings were identified in a southwestern area near the Peruvian border this week, but the tribe's existence was only verified after airplane expeditions in April gathered more data.

Damn, look at all that deforestation they're causing. I bet their farts are increasing global warming.

apeman12: Should screw with them and drop a few dozen iPones. Let's see what happens when you jump start "progress".

Too late.
I can understand them growing indigenous maize and peanut, but bananas originate in SE Asia, so they must've had some prior contact with outsiders to start that crop.

/and where can I get an iPone?

Hey asshats, I belive the Prime Directive foribids us from messing around with them.

I was thinking the exact same thing. I know i've seen that photo before in a story just like this.

Does National Geographic seem like real porn to coloured people?

This is a common phenomenon in many fields. When your readership is mostly too dumb to notice or remember the past just rehash the material slightly different years later and almost no one will be will the wiser.

What if they eat little babies? What then? If we leave them alone, wouldn't we be guilty of MURDER?!

I believe the correct term for this phenomenon is "news reporting."

It really is fascinating to think about a group of people completely oblivious to the outside world. I'm sure they have seen planes before, what do they think they are? If history is any indication, they are certainly gathering in their huts to talk about these strange "birds". I wonder how they have incorporated them into their mythology/religion? If humans have one thing in common, it's that we all try to make sense of the things we don't understand, of course we all know the results of that. I can imagine the wild stories the elders tell of these flying objects.

I imagine them sitting around a campfire, when a small plane flies over. The tribesmen stare in wonder until the eldest looks up and says, in his strange, far-away voice: "Oh s**t, more anthropologists. Hide the booze."
