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.

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

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!

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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