I’m afraid to engage in international tourism because the country I’m from, the United States, is a goddamn embarassment, and I’m would be apologizing everywhere I go, and silent otherwise.

    The world does not hate those, who are awoken from the american dreamnightmare. You guys are just victims.

    We really dislike all the brainrotten dimwits who still love all the shit your elite puppeteers do. And how they destroy the way of living, the internet and...gestures broadly at everything

    Just research carefully the country you go to. Some places hate tourists with a passion, some see them with curiosity. The country you come from is usually irrelevant (except if it's Israel)

    We’re about to head out on a trip tomorrow and yeah, it’s kind of embarrassing. We always say we’re from California if asked, because that feels slightly less embarrassing, though the tech bros have now shown their true colors so it’s less effective than it used to be.

    I've travelled out of the country a few times under Trump's rule. I bet clearly make my opinions if Trump known, and can usually find a common ground with the people in interacting with.

    Like, wouldn't travel to the middle east and try to play that game, but most people are pretty reasonable and understanding, especially if you're in a touristy area where the economy is almost entirely based on you spending money.

    Just try not to draw attention to yourself, be respectful, and talk shit about Trump and his band of merry racist cunts if needed.

    I hold Canadian and American passports and we travel a fair bit. The last time I was treated poorly because someone thought I was American was when GW Bush was President. People are good at separating governments from individuals.

    I can confirm that I do not like engaging specifically with Americans. No problem with other tourists/visitors

    How 'bout instead you suck up what you've done to the world and face the music. Destroying another country's reputation with your cuntry's (sic) shitfuckery is ... well, very American.
