I really don't care.
But why do Europeans let Muslims into their countries?
That's what I want to know.

Not so sure we don’t. I think most tourists are often quite polite. If you’re on a trip somewhere to a foreign country, often means you’re in a good mood, curious, full of wonder etc. I think it’s a myth based on a few bad apples.
Exception to this would be people ( mostly youths ) going somewhere just to party. The kind of tourism that say Mallorca, Barcelona has, hence the great protests. But that’s a different debate.
In short, I don’t think I’ve ever met an American tourist that was loud and obnoxious.
Hmmm, you
"don't think"
you
"ever met"
…that's a strange wording. ​
No, not because it's English.
However, I met US-American tourists who were
"loud and obnoxious"
.
And European tourists as well (UK, FR, DE). For example, it's completely impossible to walk through Cairo (Egypt) in hot pants. Cairo is pretty liberal when it comes to dress codes, but I wouldn't go to a French church in a bikini either.
I just have read some comments on YT, and this one is really funny, leastwise to me:

Reminds me of a little story about a tourist from the USA visiting Munich, asking a native where he was.
The native started out to answer elaborately, but was cut short by the tourist saying "no details, please,
just tell me which continent".

Thats it, I’m going to clown college

The American tourist is obese, loud, uncouth and stupid.

Europeans might be slightly less fat than us but they're still fat AF.
Most western countries are.
Yep, confirmed.
And it has sad reasons.
Post-War Trauma on the Plate
🥩 ​🥩 ​🥩​
In short:

• Eating habits across generations are determined by war experiences.
• Lifelong compensation of deficiency with far-reaching consequences.
• Obesity and even cancer as an indirect long-term consequence.
• In times of shortage girls apparently received less meat than boys.
• Research helps to understand the behaviour of the war generation even in later years.
  "Children growing up during war try for the rest of their lives to compensate for the lack of meat they suffered and often overcompensate."
  These war children become parents themselves and pass on their eating habits to the next generation.

Lol, why so triggered?

Ok, you found one.

I've always been wired for unfiltered truth, no matter who it offends.
