      I hope it inspires them to document their oral traditions in some way on the Internet. Most likely it would be a blog, but video documentation would be invaluable preservation

        I would love for more of this work to be done in my country too - Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have so much lore, history and knowledge that we’ve been losing with each passing generation due to the ongoing effects of colonialism. I agree that video is the most appropriate way to preserve oral traditions and knowledge, and that we should be creating massive publicly-accessible databases to store and view them.

      If you wouldn’t be such a reader and instead memorized things like God intended, you’d know, that this sentiment existed for at least 2000 years:

      The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.

        I agree with your point, but I’m not sure if that is a real quote from Socrates: https://quoteinvestigator.com/2010/05/01/misbehave/?amp=1

    “But now, things have gotten worse. Young people have gotten lazy because of the internet, they’re learning the ways of the white people.”

    Shots fired

    The Marubo are a chaste tribe, who even frown upon kissing in public — but Alfredo Marubo (all Marubo use the same last name) said he is anxious that the arrival of the service …

    TIL

    “We’re worried young people are going to want to try it,” he said of the kinky sex acts they’ve suddenly been exposed to on screen.

    Well there were also bad parts to the story besides the ass eating

      No idea. Haven’t they learned that undereducated people don’t deserve the internet? Just look at north america.

    I just want to say that there’s a lot of blame to go around for this, but it’s not the fault of porn.
