Social media is on the decline. Instagram is all ads. No one's posting on BeReal. TikTok is for influencers. The new place for sharing: group chats.

I deleted my main Reddit account but still find myself going back there occasionally for specific topics. For example, I haven't found a good place on Lemmy to ask travel questions.

place on Lemmy to ask travel questions.

Good luck. One poster would ask if you like sex and travel, then tell you to "Go and get fucked."

Another would accuse you of being a bourgeois lib who is killing the planet with your capitalist excesses.

Another would go on a rant about privilege and how your very ability to ask such questions in a public space speaks to your total lack class consciousness and your ignorance of "The Movement" or something like it.

In short, check out Vang Vieng in Laos and have a great time.

People like this infuriate me. They don't clue in that travel decreases the fear and antipathy toward other cultures.
