    I went on a trip to a native American historical site, and the tour guide told us about a family that came and the parents watched and egged on the kids while they used rocks to mark up the walls.

    The person who responded to you isn’t saying that this gondola is historical, rather that the attitude doesn’t stay only in that boat.

    The same people standing in the boat to take a selfie are also doing stupid shit around irreplaceable history.

    You can willfully ignore the connection between these things. All things, really. But if the world seems confusing to you, this is why.
