      @SoCali There's still so much value in your culture, and it would be too big of a shame for the natives to abandon it. If they just moved away, their language and culture would be lost. There must be a way to get their society to function by balancing the new way of live, with the old cultural traditions. Unfortunately, it seems we don't have an answer on how to do that yet. And the dilemma seems overwhelming

      that is the stupidest thing to say, your culture is what you are born into, as your race is tied to such culture and historical roots.
      but because people like you can't grasp the importance of race, you will believe that an african man can belong to the japanese culture which is not possible
      the culture is always tied to its race, it is not a plaything for foreigners, Foreigners may try its clothes and so forth but they will never be part of it as someone that was born into it

    Living in a remote and low-population community almost anywhere in the world is a tough life. One of the nice things about living in a big city is that you can reinvent yourself if you need to. You can change your job and find an entirely new circle of friends relatively easily, whereas in a really small community, everyone knows each other and everything you do is scrutinized. Imagine having a bad breakup or a fight with your boss. You'll be the talk of the town for a while...

They were resourceful and smart and made use of everything they found. Then the vikings came along and within 500 years they just dissappeared.

And the reason why they don’t exist today was not from being conquered, but through successful assimilation into Anglo Saxon culture. Funny how you name one European country while I can mention hundreds of failed native tribes. Natives contributed nothing to the betterment of humanity.

I'm 19 and these are things I've thought about for a long time. It's not guilt that I feel, because I wasn't the one who did it. It's not hope because it's only getting worse. It's not anger because there's nothing I can do. I believe its fear. Fear of what to come, fear of what I'm capable of, and fear of what havoc my everyday habits will bring.

      That's not what life should be like.
      I think most people are subconsciously aware of this, they just don't really realize it.
      Which is why a lot of people are so miserable.....
      People just have this feeling like there's something missing from life, like there's something wrong.
      Everyone's looking for something to try and fill in the void.... looking for the answer. Something to give their existence purpose and meaning.
      Everyone has a Feeling that something just isn't quite right.
      The truth is we aren't really free.

They are likely to have no sense of purpose or self worth. I see that there is little to actively do to be an actively industriously productive contributor to society. No farming. The sea has a great bounty, satisfaction could be found working amongst the waves. Great access to raw minerals is beginning to be unlocked from glacial melt. So I see opportunities about to open. Sucking the sour milk from the government tit will never satisfy and can only lead to hopelessness, despair, lack and generational poverty for posterity. When People become dependent they are no longer independent. When they are no longer independent they are not Free. Purpose to actively take charge of your life and create, build and trade.

Average Economics prosperity in country’s coincides with a country’s average happiness, even thought “money doesn’t (technically) by you happiness”. One thing that they could do is Have an immigration program like the USA has had which will bring in a lote of wealth and improve the society as a whole since economics is not a zero sum game. Remember money isn’t wealth. Because if so, governments would be able to just print money and give it to everyone. Money is just a tool used to illustrate wealth to help improve economic transactions. Real wealth is in knowledge. A perfect example of this is when many of the rich people from Cuba where trying to flee the country for the USA because Cuba was communist and it had hard economic times. the Cuban government confiscated all of there money. However they couldn’t confiscate their wealth. The money runs out at some point. However wealth does not. They moved to America without a penny to there names. THE PEOPLE THEMSELVES are wealth. They worked hard and today Cuban Americans have a greater GDP than the entire Cuban Government. ( However a wealfair state and immingration is a deadly combination, which doesn’t lead to economics prosperity, it leads to less) the wealth of nations is in physical thing including knowledgeable humans. Wealth in general (money isn’t wealth) =happiness.

      Their lives weren't miserable. What's different is their lives once had a purpose. They don't have that now due in large part to Denmark's intrusion. Life was hard, sure, but they had a community and family to support each other. The introduction of alcohol to their native culture has devastated this structure. That's been the case with many Native American tribes as well. These people are genetically predisposed to alcoholism. That's why many US and Canadian reservations and Inuit towns are dry and alcohol is banned.
      If a population of 1,500 is burying a teenager to suicide every month it's time the town follows suit and ban alcohol.

      My mom's family are white Scandinavians, from Norway and Denmark. They have problems with alcoholism and suicide too. My mom was bipolar and had insomnia. Maybe cold environments select for those kinds of genes.

      I wonder if prohibition is practical there. It’s much more isolated from any other place, but anyone motivated by addiction or profiting off of addiction would be pressed to find a way.
