How come people believe they can go to other countries and be racist and disrespectful of the cultures they’re visiting?


There seems to be this new streamer trend of the Johnny Somali effect… Where “there’s no such thing as bad publicity!” Going on, where people want to become popular influencers, but they want to be able influence with basically horrendous ideals that you can be a piece of shit to anyone.. 24-7.. and live that kind of lifestyle not only without consequences.. but Also for profit from these streaming tech companies…

Not everyone is going to get along in life.. That’s just an undeniable fact.. we can’t all be friends.. the most civil thing we can do is agree to disagree.. and good fences make good neighbors etc..

But I have a hard time imagining being so privileged as to being able to travel with your life, so you just go out and attack people and try to insult them and make them feel bad.. When you could be taking in the sites and building beautiful memories.. These people are just freaks..

This is trash.

She IS an Indonesian Muslim, and is known to try different cuisines in her videos. Apparently the video shows her reciting an Islamic prayer before eating pork. If people think this is significant, or somehow justification for her being arrested and then convicted, they really need to evaluate what it is they believe in.

Her imprisonment is a massive human rights violation, and various groups who try to fight for more freedom in Indonesia have criticized it.

"Blasphemy laws"...give me a break.
Yeah, that is just so immature and stupid.

Who jailed her, Indonesia?

I understand what you're saying though and it was dumb of her, but she's not actually a tourist:

She's from Indonesia herself.
