You misread. My argument is "most tourists bad, most tourism bad". Considering the crisis situation we are living in, especially climate change, people should ask themselves whether seeing the world is really that important. Questioning the tourism industry as a whole sure makes people defensive. I'm not against people seeing other places at all, I'd rather not have it happen in the way it's happening now as it's stupidly destructive and selfish. Can we set up things in a way where you can rather spend several months immersed in a different culture than rushing to somewhere for the two measly weeks your employer lets you out of your cubicle? Or is that too radical and we're doomed to forever keep building ugly resorts and turn everything into AirBnbs?
