>That's pretty vague. Gotta ask them if they would trade the comforts of modernity for the fulfillment of yore if they could, especially those who still have traditional communities more in line with nature in their respective countries. Lots of african countries have em, even though their own governments are trying to crack down on those. Or like how there's still amazonas tribes. Or how you can become Amish in america.
I mean I don't know for sure but I'm sure they would prefer traditional ways of living. You would have to tell them all of the "benefits" and the consequences of adopting modern society, and arguably there are very little benefits. A lot of "benefits" of technology bring about a new problem for each that it solves. I already mentioned how some of modern medicine is a response to problems brought about by industrial society, such as dental and eye problems. You said they might not understand that... do we? Most people see modern society as entirely good without understanding how much of it is made up of solving problems that it created in the first place. So yeah they might like modern amenities like medicine or motorbikes but the question has to be asked: at what cost? You can't have these things without the all-encompassing apparatus that is industrial society, and the tradeoff is immense.
