This is why people hate tourists. If you can’t respect the culture and tradition of a place then just stay home so you don’t ruin it for the people that will be respectful. If they tell you something is sacred just listen. If they say a behavior is inappropriate just listen.
They let tourists into their sacred site because it’s amazing and they want to share that. They just don’t want you being a disrespectful dickhead, it’s not a big ask.
Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t get caught dead doing this, but you look at the vid and there is a crowd of people. It kind of feels like a zoo, it’s unavoidable I guess.
I feel the same about this as I would seeing someone do it in a crowded museum. The shaming is justified but it feels out of proportion for what it is.
How about people loudly talking/laughing in museums? For me that can ruin an experience and there’s not much you can do about it unless you’re looking to make a scene with some 16 year olds or whatever.
