This is main channel quality bro

The rant about antibiotics was straight up CATHARTIC to hear! Thank you for being real about this stuff. Especially considering the fact you're in a community that I'd say is especially prone to being skeptical of the miracle of modern medicine.

Three Metta vids in the span of a week? Damn, we're eating good

maybe a better word for tribe would just be people, so instead of Shipibo tribe it's the Shipibo people, because they are a people, the people of the Shipibo

pueblo, in this context means people. The shipibo people would be a more correct way to say it. Tribe doesn't have the bad connotation in english because it is the language of the colonizer.

Your analysis of poor vs 'not having money' was really great.

Congrats on coming out as a Furry, Metta, all the power to you.

Your rant about poor vs having no money really hit hard man. You are such an eloquent speaker. Thanks for always making such high quality videos for us to enjoy and ponder over. Love ya bro.

20:19  horrendous. Truly awful. And it’s not on the shoulders of women and girl children to preserve a culture. Their pain shouldn’t be preserved.

Very interesting video.  I had to struggle through the mutilation of Shipibo girls without puking but managed.  I would offer that although you described it as being "cut" its probably more involved and horrific.   You're point was taken albeit reluctantly.

Everyone who is complaining about modern medicine would not only be begging for it if it they lived 100+ years ago.  They will beg for it now.

Its easy to hate on modern medicine until you are quite literally dying and WILL die without modern intervention.  

You will literally consent to anything when faced with death.

Stumbling on a creator that I literally went to high school with. Wild.

I'm a paleoanthropology student and I adore your work, you genuinely approach with better technique than tons of cultural anthropology professors, I admire your work and genuine care for the people you study so much. I hope one day my work can be as impactful and human as yours. You are such a wonderful down to earth resource, I often recommend your main channel as a resource for my friends that dabble in recreational substances with me. Thank you thank you thank you ❤

First thing: Dont call me a tribe, (Title): Shipibo: The tribe that Sell Ayahuasca

The clip at 10:10 of the little girl just picking up a bird that didn't care at all is so funny

24:31 the Shipibo people don't take any Ls

Only 11k views is insane. This is incredible stuff, really hope you continue doing stuff like this metta this is awesome!

luv listening to this dude rambling about cultures.

There are 3 large Amazonian peoples in Peru  (Shipibo konibo, Asháninka and Awajún) and of this 3, the Shipibo are the smallest in terms of population and number of speakers; nevertheless, they are the best known to the majority of peruvians. This may be because their territory and cultural influence extend to a regional capital like Pucallpa and they are also present in Lima, where they have a community called Cantagallo that is home to a large number of Shipibo people .

So very niche and so interesting! I watched the Ayahuasca video so I really wanted to hear more about the Shipibo people!
