- bayganyo 2mo ago"At the End of the World" disambiguates it pretty well, I think.
- estetlinus 2mo agoPhew. I am sitting here in my fleece feeling attacked.
- bluealienpie 2mo agoPatagonia as it’s referred to today was never unpopulated, it still has an indigenous population. This narrative is used everywhere for vast untamed wilderness that just ignores the many people still living there.
- volkl48 2mo agoI'm certainly willing to be corrected, but as far as I can tell from some brief searching, indigenous populations that exist in the region today aren't living some nomadic life out in the wilderness either. They're living in cities and towns like almost everyone else does. So a post like this is still correct in how it's presented. Almost no one is actually living out at "the end of the world" in the wilderness with few or no other people around, and it is potentially a topic of interest/curiosity to hear about those who do.
