It’s probably a very small number of small-minded people posting on Twitter, but the nature of that platform is that vocal minorities get signal boosted to fuck because of the dunk-tweet format and the algorithm.
Yeah, it likely is a combination of outrage tourists fomenting a vocal minority response and other twats+bots are boosting the message.
