  • From people on both sides. Anytime someone tells you you're not allowed to go to a place because ALL the people are XYZ, or because you look a certain way, they're just being racist. Or am I crazy? Let me know what you guys think

    I once went to a favela in Brazil and was pretty anxious. Turned out to be the most lovely people I have met. A great experience. At the same time I was robbed in the old town. Crime most often happen in touristy places.

      Same, if it just means we prefer are own people. Fun Fact- Leon Trotsky, Lev Bronstein coined the term 'racist' to persecute those who criticized the commissars mostly non-Russian enemies. [guess their ethnics ;)

    I was in the military 20 years ago and whenever deployed to other countries they’d brief us to use the “buddy system “ and always go out with other military members for safety. I’ve always been of the mindset do you even read the stats for big cities in the US vs where ever the f we are 😂

    Best strategy in dealing with the woke mob and right wing racists is to ignore them altogether, know that 99% of folks find your content educational and entertaining, also its a shame you couldn't make it to Iran, it would've been the most contrast you would've seen between what you see or hear on media and whats actually happening on the ground. If you ever made it to Iran Ill be your tour guide for free lol

    8 minutes in and still no discussion about the topic in the title??? But dude, you kept saying the word "gypsy" and you seem to not be aware of the fact that that is a very derogatory term. They are Romani people. Hopefully, by meeting some of those people, you've learned not to use that term. And yes calling a group of people terrorists or they are dangerous for sure is racist. It's not like you aren't allowed to go to certain places, it's recommended or hyped not to go there. I have been to Colombia twice, the first time I went alone - and people told me how dangerous it was. I felt safe when I was there, and there were no issues. It's an amazing country. The place that I've felt the most unsafe is actually the USA. The gun culture, and hate, the MAGA, it's gross. I'm a Canadian, for the record.

      It's just a loose term for over sensitive people. It's used a lot actually. But that's the internet for you these days, people are literally giving Connor shit for asking simple travel advice in areas of the world that by some western standards may be risky.
      People need to ironically grow up & stop being so sensitive over topics they realistically don't care about.
