Low skill jobs
Other way it's you steal a job froma local lad at McDs
were's in the Tourist industry
not the burger industry
I would never travel to Europe the way things are now. I can only imagine how bad tourism is now.
It's actually growing for Western Europe
Tourism in Spain is reaching new records every year
I just won't be going anywhere that can toss me in jail for insulting someone
Why, do you usually go around the world insulting people?
Seems like an american thing to do
And some Americans got arrested by the Vatican when they took pictures while using hand signs that represented their favorite sports team that just won a tournament. The gesture was obscene in Italian or something.
So cultural differences could definitely make someone seem insulting.
And I wouldn't even know who I'm offending or how. But even if I do the law shouldn't punish me for it. That's... Barbaric to me, I guess? So it's a matter of principle I suppose.
but MUH GOVERNMENT DINDU NUFFIN WRONG
@EnderOctanus which hand gestures for reference?
Horns, for a bull
Index and pinky extended from a fist I think
Hahaha
Pretty sure they were fined, but there was an uproar at the time over it. Maybe ten years ago?
It's not Italy, they got their own law
Right but I think it may have been an Italian language thing, though who knows could be satanic
I mean, you're in the Vatican, know someone they don't like which happens to have horns?
Yeah
But still. If nothing else there is a certain perception of a lack of freedom in Europe amongst many Americans, and recent developments really don't help.
Based Berlusconi
Well I'm pretty sure that if an Indian came to America they would complain that they can't shit in the streets
Every culture has its own things
Yeah but everyone tries to pain Europe with gold, you know?
@EnderOctanus not really lol
I mean, that hand gesture predates most countries in the world today
And inspired the use in heavy metal
The only thing I can appreciate in Europe is history and traditions and cultures old as fuck
I kind of Lost my point
Opsie
That's why our politicians point to Europe to justify new policies that some country also uses
Because some people are dumb enough to think that culture or history = good modern policy
