Critical support to dutch for correctly identifying how bad it is to visit France

China has to be the most ridiculous on this map. What danger could you as a Dutch tourist possibly face in China? Eating spicy food?

[–] chesmotorcycle@lemmygrad.ml 30 points 5 months ago

Visiting could lead to questioning "China bad".

[–] Hello_Kitty_enjoyer@hexbear.net 6 points 5 months ago

sichuanese food isn't even that spicy

Scary France? Scary Mexico? WTF even is this shit?

France is due to terrorism threats. Because visiting Mimizan in Nouvelle-Aquitaine is as dangerous as visiting Paris' busy streets of course.

Tf is wrong with Cuba, most of South America, Algeria, South Africa, China, Vietnam and Laos, and why are Belarus and DPRK marked in same color as countries with literal wars raging💀

There aren't wars there for decades.

It's funny how they always tell us that China is going to violently invade Taiwan any time now, and yet it's the only part of China that they colored green. 🤡

Argentina and Ecuador in shambles rn... when will they learn, they will never be "western..." for most (even those of "pure" mayo descent, if they've got a complexion) you won't ever even be seen as "white..."

[–] Hello_Kitty_enjoyer@hexbear.net 5 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

nobody in Latin America is of pure mayo descent either unless their parents are immigrants or they come from a clan of spatially gifted racists (< 5% of the population)

Based, we do not want dutch down here.

[–] Rasm635u@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 5 months ago

Down where?

[–] KrupskayaPraxis@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 5 months ago

Belarus the same color as Ukraine seems a stretch, and you can't tell me that Brazil and China are on the same level

Saudi Arabia is much much more safer than the US

[–] JoeDaRedTrooperYT@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

And they have what is basically a theocracy.

[–] PanArab@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Is that why DPRK is red? The redder it is the more theocratic it is?

[–] JoeDaRedTrooperYT@lemmygrad.ml -1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No. I am confused as to how the Dutch Government would mark a literal terrorism sponsoring state as a travel recommendation.

[–] PanArab@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 5 months ago

The US is green though.

[–] JoeDaRedTrooperYT@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Of course it's the [REDACTED]s as if you aren't the ones responsible for the shit storm us brownies have to live under.

I am referring to the Dutch Government here to avoid confusion.

Why is half of Pakistan bad and the other half only somewhat bad?

[–] Hestia@hexbear.net -1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I would simply recommend NOT traveling. At all. Especially not by plane.

[–] huisjesmelk@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 5 months ago

traveling by train is the most based option but Amsterdam-Barcelona would set me back €250,- the bus is only €50 and it takes a day and change. The subsidized plane only costs €80,-!
