The video speaks for itself. Absolutely fascinating.

4. There's not one chance in hell that's not a hoax. sorry

The white "savior" element of it is really appealing though.

No really it is.

Indigenous cultures will see the error of their ways the instant they touch the hand of a white man.

6. You meant "appalling", right?

Am I right?

12. Apparently my sarcasm button is broken. nt

Maybe that's just me.

17. You have no faith in the essential decency of the White Man's culture. n/t

[MattBaggins]

20. Indigenous cultures will see the error of their ways the instant they touch the hand of a white man.

That comment was perhaps a tad bit racist?

13. I'm astounded that anyone here believed it for a second....actually.

Worse that they bought into the entire "white savior" myth.

That video is disgusting.

[patrick t. cakes]

[HarveyDarkey]

16. but, but, but...

it's on the interwebs, it must be true

[pokerfan]

11. Amazing...

But wait till the Missionaries show up.. that's when problems start.

[jaded_old_cynic]

15. Interesting.....

Is it real?

[Dash87]

18. I thought it was interesting, but completely unbelievable.

For example, who would be afraid of a mirror? They probably see their reflection all of the time in the water.

Fake and dumb. :)
