A rather depressing article about how companies in the real world are doing things AT LEAST as bad as in the film to indigenous peoples around the world. Said people also have the disadvantage that unlike the Na'vi they aren't three meters tall, hideously strong, and can call upon mighty animals to fight beside them, so they don't even have the option of driving out the f@%Īkers who rape their lands with force.
East India Trading Company, Enough said, this isn't new this is happening now in the modern world, it happened in the world before now, nothing new nothing different. Some humans are willing to sacrifice their humanity for profit and others just allow it to go on as long as their needs have been met. The worst part of all of this is the apathy.
