[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After traveling all throughout Europe last summer, I found the Irish to stand out in terms of people. Maybe the language helped but overall, it was a stark contrast to how I was treated in Germany, Czech Republic, italy etc[/quote]

Sorry, but no one but rightwing Hungarians and Russ is going to welcome Americans right now. [/quote]

I think most people realize that half of voters did not vote for Trump and that MAGA are way less likely to have passports let alone travel internationally. Only one third of Americans have valid passports and residents in reliably blue states are much more likely to have valid passports https://www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2011/03/americas-great-passport-divide/72399/

That said maybe we are past the point of other countries distinguishing MAGA extremists from other Americans. [/quote]

Most people posting on this thread have no idea what politics are like in EU countries. And yet they're so worried about "MAGA extremists." Amazing.

As for OP, not sure why she wants friendly locals. When I travel I don't want friendly locals, I want efficiency and competence. If you get it, awesome. People in most places aren't going to be super friendly to passing strangers. Why would they? [/quote]

Europeans were getting more stupidly extreme.

Now we’re insanely extreme and encouraging Putin to nuke London and Brussels.

Maybe Europeans’ extremism will clash with our stupid, insane extremism and they’ll soon be shutting us out of their countries. [/quote]
