The marketing toward blacks is just unnecessary. What’s next? Separate, but equal, travel facilities?

Will it advise me where the most popular places for people of color to vacation? If so that could be useful so I could avoid imposing on their culture…

So for Black History month they are pushing a handful of present blacks as bold for doing what people including some blacks have been doing for centuries and pushing present day segregated adventure camps.

They couldn’t find any black travel figures or celebrate blacks who traveled the world from the past???

The don’t even do this stuff to grow business with blacks. They do it for themselves. Even before summer of love I used to laugh at some elitist white liberals I knew from high school justifying their living in well off white neighborhoods, sending their kids to white schools, and in general dealing little day to day with blacks outside a few elite blacks because of how they voted, what they supported on social media, and who or what causes they gave money that was left over after spending what they wanted on themselves. It was basically - They can do what they tell others is racist, because they vote Democrat and give money to leftist causes.

Not sure what algorithm Tripadvsior used that assumed I was black.

Don’t know if it was the hotels I booked for NASCAR races or Gary Allan concerts that made them come to that conclusion.



Probably shouldnt search for BBC videos on google. They sold your information.

I guess if enough black folks are offended TripAdvisor will be firing some marketing people, then.

Tourists aren’t really supposed to leave their mark on the world.

Here is how an email like that happens:
1. George Floyd dies
2. America freaks out
3. Corporation tries to get on the “right side.” Looks at its hiring and asks liberal employees what they can do to help systemic racism (barf)
4. Answers include: (1) Have more diverse workforce and (2) amplify black voices.
5. Company hires or engages some black people to no number 2 (ha)
6. They come up with ideas, including that email, and nobody has the courage to say no, that’s fricking stupid and doesn’t help. Actually may hurt.

White Yankee leftists have nothing on Western Europe when it comes to kissing black arse. Scandinavia is particularly bad. They actually believe the whole "systemic racism" narrative where whitey is holding the blacks down in America. You'll see them sometimes on Reddit asking for information about how to speak "AAVE." They get mad when you tell them it's not a real language with rules and shite (and that they'll look stupid if they talk or write that way).
