00:00
Have you seen those videos that are going viral?
00:01
Of people in Barcelona getting sprayed with water guns?
00:04
Yeah, but like what the fuck is going on?
00:06
What's happening? So apparently tourists are getting sprayed by locals with
00:10
water guns saying like,
00:12
we don't want tourists here,
00:15
I can only imagine in my vacation fit or we fighting on
00:18
side. That's, that's your worst fear.
00:21
I don't know. I'm just saying like,
00:25
they contribute to the economy,
00:27
you know, like some countries that's what they like.
00:30
That's the bread and butter.
00:31
Yeah, definitely that some people are asking.
00:33
But apparently what's going on in Spain is apparently the mayor or
00:37
the country isn't spreading out the wealth,
00:39
but that's not the juror's fault.
00:42
was it in 2023 26 million visitors came in and spent over
00:47
$13 billion. But the government isn't really doing anything to kind
00:52
of give back and all the airbnb's and like the rent again
00:57
So housing prices are going up,
00:58
everything is going more expensive.
01:02
Like I, I can understand why they're upset.
01:05
Totally understand why they're upset.
01:08
But the irony, you know,
01:15
what are you getting access to?
01:17
I mean, they didn't give a fuck.
01:24
The colonizers don't want to be colonized in a way.
01:27
Is that where you're getting it all that head shaking?
01:32
I mean, that's what I'm trying to get at.
01:34
Like we were squirting water guns at y'all,
01:42
but apparently the mayor of Barcelona is increasing tourism taxes.
01:46
So there should be hopefully a solve to this and people should
01:49
be happy and the water guns,
01:51
you know, get put down because you don't want to ruin
01:55
it's like lower your gun.
02:03
I'm sorry, I'm sorry,
02:04
I'm sorry. There's some cool Spaniards.
02:09
I know some cool Spaniards.
02:14
No, it's just crazy again because of all this greed that
02:17
like you said, people that are going on vacation and honestly
02:20
trying to be a colonizer,
02:22
just take all the culture.
02:24
They don't know where the money goes.
02:26
You know, I'm not going to go to a restaurant and
02:28
you make sure to give this back to the Spaniards and create
02:32
affordable housing for this.
02:33
Now I am and be like Mira.
02:39
sorry. No, I know you're editing this anyway.
02:42
Let's keep moving. It's a joke.
