Like I said, if they're accustomed to bad infrastructure, why would they expect it elsewhere?
Besides that, tourists often travel in group. Even the best infrastructure can't accommodate a large bus of tourists are once.
I've been to Japan, the more touristy places actually have signs specifically addressing the Chinese on what not to do, so it does point at it being a larger problem there.
Americans and Brits tourists here in Europe do indeed have a certain reputation, but Chinese tourists have such a bad reputation that Brits and Americans are welcomed with open arms.
The biggest problem are the groups though. Any group is going to behave badly, nationality doesn't matter.
And that in combination with how different Chinese culture is in some aspects just has given them a bad reputation worldwide.
It's reminds me of those Blues Brothers scenes where the police vehicles just keep on piling up.
Accidents when foggy/snowy/... happen everywhere but I've never heard of these big pileups anywhere outside of the US. Really makes me wonder what's going on in their heads when conditions are bad.
Doesn't mean people are attentive throughout though. I think it were Netflix execs that are currently pushing writers to constantly reiterate plot points because people aren't paying attention.
My community just setup a Matrix instance and we're migrating everyone over. Several already cancelled their subscription.
I actually ran into a colleague in a random room, who is also leaving Discord.
It's pretty nuts, there's a big exodus going on.
