They're not complaining about the sand. They're complaining about Mexican music in Mexico.

Imagine going to Paris and melting down if you hear Edith Piaf singing La Vie En Rose somewhere...

Well, this topic runs deeper than Karenesque behavior. American and Canadian expats are gentrifying the desirable parts of Mexico, but this took it even further.

They aren't going to choose tourists over themselves. Especially since most tourists know how to behave themselves in foreign countries.

Sure. However, they're not going to change for tourists. It wouldn't be Mexico anymore.

How many times are you going to say the same thing? They're not going to be broke. They have expanded their economy in many different directions.

Meh.
The dude's got colonialist brain.

He literally can't imagine any other life for those people than humbling themselves for 'Muricans and other colonizers. He doesn't see them as people, just resources to be exploited and servants to be punished if they don't adequately play their assigned roles.

Discussing these topics with him only makes sense if you have an outrage kink.

So do I, generally.
That doesn't mean I engage with everyone on every topic. What a waste of time that would be when I already know what some people are going to type before they do and they've got it all wrong to boot.

Spanish music playing everywhere in Mexico doesn’t bother me as much as Canadian tourists on spring break dancing like dads at a backyard BBQ in the discoteca.
