I mean, that island is kinda small…
Does the resources required to develop the technology that we have, even exist on that island?
Do they just remain “uncontacted” forever?
I mean what even is the ethical thing to do?
On one hand, they don’t have immunity, so we shouldn’t risk them getting diseases, therefore, leave them be.
BUT:
On the other hand, we have the medicine to help them live longer. Shouldn’t we try to gift them our technology so they are better equipped to survive?
What would a philosopher say about this? What does internation laws and the international community say about this?
What’s their future?
What do you personally think about this?
It didn’t murder you, but do you keep much of your original culture?
The whole point of the stolen generation policies were to destroy the aboriginals culture. Its not a genocide in the murder sense, but the end result is the same, the group will no longer functionally exist.
