Has anybody ever been on an all-inclusive, agency organized group trip that wasn’t mid at best?
These are all about penny-fucking, and ripping off tourists. I look at the pictures in the article and get PTSD from memories of some childhood trip to Bulgaria. At least we had the excuse of being a working family from a poor ex-socialist country, and any beach and hotel was fancy to us. But somebody from a developed country in 2025 pays for something like this, I don’t know what to say to them.
They could open their browser and book a cheaper trip, staying in an apartment on some Greek or Italian beach, and eating the best local foods. But these old British boomers are lazy and also probably incapable of grilling a salmon steak if their life depended on it. Or at least lift up their asses and walk 200 meters to a restaurant nearby, with edible food.
I would rather keep working in the office during a hot summer week, than go on a trip like this with half a dozen relatives.

Exactly. Not blaming the victim, pls go ahead and sue the giant corp.
Still, I don’t like cucumbers, so I always take a look in my burger to make sure they got the order right. I’m not blindly trusting a tired 19 year old student worker who’s fighting a hangover. No judgment or anger there, I don’t go to fast food restaurants to get Michelin star food or service.
I would love this, great idea
I wonder who they voted for 🤔

Exactly, it’s just marketing for them. I bet they see the business opportunity in the number of ppl looking for chiropractors, so they do some course and get certified easily next to their real medical degree. Funnily enough, they probably do a good job due to the e.g. sport medicine stuies and experience, this perpetuating the positive image of the chiropractor “profession”
Yes, I hate to be “no true Scotsman”, but they are not actually leftists, just fan of a few dictatorships, some of which claim or used to claim to be socialist.
I think it starts with the letter A
Yes, but the package also includes 15 days of starving, while getting beaten and raped by your fellow countrymen

They were probably rich (as stayed in a 5 star hotel) and might have some family connections to pull some strings
Mainly it’s Russia’s influencing efforts. Many Western right-wing politicians are in their pockets, their money supports many hard-right parties, and their propaganda directly influences and pushes voters to these parties. So primarily it’s a practical relationship of aligned goals, as Russia’s global activity helps them get more power domestically, so they are more lenient with Russia’s fuckery in e.g. Ukraine.
Secondarily there is a sympathy, as Putin did many things they would like to do domestically, building a white Christian anti-LGBT nation with a strong hand (at least in perception). I also once read an article I couldn’t find now, that explained how in global Christian “church politics”, Russia managed to get very close to and influence US Christian leaders, so that might also have an impact.

Of all the jobs you could try to fake, why choose dentist?
It needs costly equipment, vast medical knowledge and high precision with you hand. At the same time, it is very high risk, if you mess up something.
