This.
I'm always surprised how Western tourists look so much like tourists, especially here in Japan. I guess they're going on an "exploration" and they're about to "discover" things. So they need to dress like adventurers or something.

How Asian people travel VS How...
This.
I'm always surprised how Western tourists look so much like tourists, especially here in Japan. I guess they're going on an "exploration" and they're about to "discover" things. So they need to dress as if they were on an adventure or something (if colonial hats were still in fashion, you can be sure they'd wear one)

Some fascinating data on #tourism in #Japan
Only 1-2% of #US, #Europe and #Australia visitors stay outside major metro areas (#Kyoto, #Osaka and #Tokyo)
For Asian (#Taiwan, #Korea, #HongKong #SEAsian tourists? 20-40%.
Interesting, according to this data, #Chinese tourists act more like #westerners than Asians.
Like you #Westerners went all around the world to conquer us, force your ideas on us, and of our own volition and introspection we do realize that this one idea you had is actually good and we keep it
And then you just walk back on it? Just like that?
Fuck that. You're not going back to monke barbarian mode. We Asians and you European descendants are going to stay walking on this civilized path whether you Western fucks like it or not. You started it, you're going to fucking finish it! :seija_coffee:

One of the #primary reasons #Europe went to #war in 1914 is that none of the #bigplayers were as #frightened as they should have been, of conflict as a supreme human #catastrophe.
#VladimirPutin shares this #delusion.
He is confident that he is #tougher than us #decadent #Westerners.

#NextGoalWins may seem like your #standard #feelgood #sports #film, but in the hands of #writer #TaikaWatiti it’s so much more — it’s an #empathybomb full of #humor and #heart.

"#Westerners are fond of the saying 'Life isn’t fair.' Then, they end in snide triumph: 'So get used to it!' What a cruel, sadistic notion to revel in! What a terrible, patriarchal response to a child’s budding sense of #ethics. Announce to an #Iroquois, 'Life isn’t fair,' and her response will be: 'Then make it fair!'" — Barbara Alice Mann
I think I might be going off #tiktok soon. The number of half-truths said on that platform is so overwhelming. Everyone is seemingly an expert in affairs they have no clue about.
I think the biggest achievement #China is not bulldozing their way to economic prosperity but giving #Africans and #Westerners a platform to self-destruct.
We spend time spreading false information for the clicks, half-truths for the likes, and killing our own government efforts just to be relevant. What stupidity
Lesson of this story: #Westerners are #colonial by design.
If you're an #Anglophone #Westerner, your very bones are poisoned with #colonialMentality.
Listen to the indigenous folks of those 'exotic' lands you're so keen to help, before opening your mouth.
This comes on the back of several past #colonial takes in #EmdSARS movement from the #Westerners. Some to note:
Right in the middle of the protest in 2020 folks (in fact Black folks from American #BlackTwitter segment) suggested #BlackLivesMatter movement inspired protests in #Nigeria.
It caused a massive pushback.
#Nigerians went and reminded lots of unsavoury things about themselves to the Americans.
Stopping short of quoting whole text of #ColonialMentality by #Fela Kuti.
Look at the stats, roughly reflecting:
10,000 people are simple #colonizers
1,500 people really upset about it
3,500 people are #Colonisers with a Big Colonial Drive
From **the Anglophone** world?
When will #Westerners realise their gifts to the world are provincial and mostly don't go beyond beads and fire water?
Bosniaks, Syrians, Ukrainians called out this man's racist colonialist lies.
But #Westerners never listen to these foreigners, #whiteSavior is so much better!
About 400 young #Russian men were killed in #Ukraine.
Reminder to #Westerners : #Russians are in #Ukraine with one goal. Every #Russian combatant dead brings peace closer.
Centering the abuser is VITAL part of #Western culture.
In every context.
There must be some guilt, some intergenerational 'white man's burden' that whispers to #Westerners.
Even in insular European context, even institution tasked with remembering the victims -- would find a way to make tears for the murderers.
The #Right love accusing someone of "#Russophobia" disorientates the other in a debate.
The #left & #right LOVE accusing, say, pro-Ukrainians of being #Russophobes: cos they see it's power to disorientate & also cos it feeds THEIR need to feel superior to those showing appropriate compassion & good judgement by supporting #Ukraine.
"Russophobia" gets weaponised by #Ruschist state, its disinfo "#warriors" & gullible #westerners: 2/

All we see are #astroturfing #Westerners thowing stones in their glasshouse.
Suddenly #ElSalvador are evil and need #regimeChange because they are working out how to use a #UnitOfAccount that cannot be easily confiscated by US and UK.
Maybe the US/UK need to look in the mirror a bit because the world is moving on.
Pot called kettle black.
