indigenous nudity: an argument against unequal education

Since I was a very young child, I've always realized that the world is very far from perfect, which leaves me frustrated and confused as to why it's not the utopia I've always felt can, would, and should exist. After I learned about Marxism in elementary school, it seemed, as a philosophy, the most humane of ideologies. For many years, I just assumed that society would inevitably evolve into Marxism- a society in which everyone could be equal, happy, and find meaning in life regardless of what it was. Do what you want, and get what you need always seemed like a pretty equal and fair deal, for everyone. I've always wanted equality for all humans, I don't know why globalism is still trending towards capitalism and stratified societies. I often wonder if oppressed peoples at this point enjoy struggling, since they're all agreeing to do so in face of corporate machines. Money still isn't real, everyone is still just agreeing that class differences exist, even though they don't. Money is only based on faith in the first place- an idea to which everyone continues to subscribe. Is it that there's always supposed to be large groups of people left without power, with no chance for upward mobility?

I've also always been interested in anthropology, even now I can't believe how different humans' lives are around the world. While I do find these small leftover groups of people interesting in their primitivism, overall, I'm perplexed, shocked, and even offended that anthropologists choose to leave large groups of humans "out of the loop" so to speak, that is allowing all these tribal people's to continue new generations of members without technology, without advancement, without knowledge or the chance to do something good and/or productive for the world. You know what I'm talking about- we still see anthropological reality TV all the time on cable. These groups of people are without the potential to evolve into something better than they had been in the past- more advanced societies are now leaving them decentralized. Studying and documenting these peoples' daily lives, although interesting, and perhaps relevant to social science (which I do not take seriously in any way and find to be a joke) in the end is pointless; there's no way these small societies will continue to exist in face of rapid technological and social evolution common in first world nations. Allowing these whole other groups of people to produce new generations of humans without power or opportunity is in fact wrong, selfish, and evil on our parts. It's not equal nor fair. Living in a developed nation, I see it as my duty to bring these people kicking and screaming into the 21st century.

To make a long story short, these people are living like fucking animals, spreading diseases to one another, and carrying on like savages. It's almost 2010, this is completely ridiculous. In fact, it's racist and prejudice to allow people to live like this in a modern world. I'm not attacking these stupid tribal religions, in fact, I find christianity and islam a million times more offensive, more delusional, more ridiculous, and way more detrimental to the world on all levels. At least when these people are "sacrificing coconuts to their monkey gods" they're not discriminating against queer peoples and encouraging child molestation like catholicism, or killing gay people on the street on a daily basis, as muslim countries like to do. These religious fanatics are no better than Hitler, in fact they're worse considering the burden of accountability the Internet and the rapid spread of information now provides- now everyone knows what's going on, so we can't pretend as though we never knew.

It makes me sad that modern humans choose to not give every child in the world the same opportunity for success, health, wealth, and happiness. I've always been a supporter for equal education, for all the world's children, because we are all connected. Who even knows if a "worthless and primitive" drinking goat's blood and doing dances against the evil spirits in the middle of the desert could be the one to solve the problem of pollution, world hunger, or discover life in other areas of the universe. In fact, by not putting all the children on the same level, we are overall doing the whole human race a disservice; by including everyone and their unique abilities and talents into the general consciousness, the species would evolve and progress faster. The law of accelerating returns. I'm an Aries, so I'm always really thinking about the soul's purpose, the very essence of the meaning of life. It burdens me with the perception of being because I am everything and everyone. All I want is the best for everyone, and to live in a peaceful and happy world full of equality, dreams, and love.
