1. Don't go where you're not welcomed:
   "Spain's tourism sector is a major contributor to its GDP, accounting for over 12% in recent years. In 2023, tourism generated 186,596 million euros, which was 12.8% of the Spanish GDP, according to Doblemente"

2. gender bending flags have nothing to do with that

3. Funny how they don't like tourists that come with money, compared to all the border jumpers that come to the USA to take money.

4. PSA-stop visiting Spain and giving them your vacation money. Terrible host.

5. Ok, I will never visit Europe

6. How about Filipinos, Latino Tourists in Spain ??

7. In my opinion, mass migration poses a greater threat than over-tourism. That’s the issue spanish should be protesting about, yet that’s not the case—they are living in a bubble.

8. I hope the government does something for these people. Tourism should be regulated, if it's affecting the locals so much they can't live there!

9. Just stop going to Spain and they'll see how the economy tanks!!

10. Like blaming the till girl at the supermarket for the high prices
    Spanish are thick no wonder there being taken advantage of 🤡🤡

11. In Mallorca we don't have WATER.

12. People could save for years, go on their dream vacations be treated like this? No thanks. I visited Paris last year and half the women were wearing head scarves and half the men were out hustling and bothering people. Guy offered to sell me drugs and a woman. Total third world. Just stay home.

13. Mass tourism is not good but… Mass immigration is???

14. When I visited Mallorca it reminded me of what Cancun is to American/Canadians tourist but for British.

15. Why aren’t they protesting the illegal aliens that are flooding our Western Countries instead? Tourists bring income, illegals cost us millions

16. We have too many tourists that sometimes you feel alien in your own country.

17. Agree,I don't think it's fair to turn your anger on the tourist. Your country has allowed that number of foreigners in.

18. Tourists stay home, enjoy the beauty of your own country, spend your money at home supporting small businesses and fellow countrymen. That is my plan.

19. With out tourist some of these country’s wouldn’t survive, they helps with so many things, if people stop going see what happens, Every one loves to travel

20. This is a problem in many places. Many places have become absolutely unlivable due mass tourism, and yes it creates many other problems.

21. Protest against low salaries not tourism, you are looking at the finger and not the moon idiotic

22. I presume that this was in reality a state inspired protest that will conveniently lead to a heavy tourist tax.

23. So they blame tourists instead of mass immigration? There’s scores of streets and houses in Lisbon completely taken over by Pakistanis 😂😂😂

24. I am a blond English man, I love Spain, and I love speaking English in Spain, it's my passion! Speaking Spanish doesn't interest me at all, I make no effort!

25. They disrespect tourists but they let in 10 million foreigners with nearly 7 million not being citizens. I guess they can't figure out that may be part of the problem.

26. We should have been fid this in America. Hispanics have taken over. It's more of them than us an sneaking in or out staying their welcome. America needs to get them out. Asap

27. They must be British, American or Chinese tourists.

28. Nothing above andrew tate can please spain

29. take away their passports. If they attack tourists, they lose the privilege to travel.

30. Economic Development (Desarrollo Economico)

31. The native South Americans told the Spaniards to go home several hundred years back. Did they listen? Bloody hypocrites.
