Like, a chill place where there aren't some reactionaries or Nazis hooting and hollering while they crank up the hell world dial? Some place where people don't have to think about or talk about American shit all the time? The spectacle and buzz of American society is just draining my soul.

Honestly america seems uniquely noisy and uniquely more reactionary than almost everywhere else. The UK is trying to catch up but even with that it's not the same and americans are unique in being regarded as the foreigners that are too loud and annoying when they visit. So even with the reactionary shit... It's not the same level. Almost everywhere is some degree of more chill.

In Europe UK tourists are more hated than USians from what I remember

The heavy drinkers and football wankers cause trouble everywhere they go. The average brits not so much. Typically discernable by whether there's a gammon coloured dude with his top off or not.

It's the ones that identify themselves as English vs those that identify as Brits.

Lower bar to travel, the US isn’t sending our worst sports-loving young men on bachelor parties

This is the answer. People from the US that travel to Europe are rich.

So they’re also awful but in different ways
