      Lagging behind… can someone get me up to speed with what’s going on there? Bezos is having some opulent wedding in Venice and people are furious for some reason?

      Bezos is not buying Venice. Unless you want to start discriminating based on networth, he has the right to be a tourist and get married there.

      I don’t get this argument people are making about Locals being against tourism because this only happened as a result of Bezos fiasco. The average tourist isn’t using them as backdrop of a scummy billionaire’s wedding. And a lot of tourists are interested and respectful of local culture. I know I went to Venice to admire the local culture, people, architecture and food, not billionaire weddings. I don’t think it’s such a controversial idea for tourist cities to cherry pick what kind of tourism they want. I don’t think they are saying there should be zero tourism.

      This man is spending a LOT of money, if there were no tourists then they would be complaining about how their livelihood has died off and the government should do something. Some places are meant to enrich the lives of millions, if you want to live in a sleepy small town there are more than enough places to do that. I hope these people never leave Venice as they would turn into the same ‘annoying’ tourists themselves.

      A certain across the pond country is out of its mind if they think Venice’s legacy as one of the most touristic and picturesque places on planet earth could be diminished because they kicked out a billionaire.

      Clearly Venice is for sale since Bezos was able/allowed to rent/lease/buy whatever he wanted in the city of Venice. 🙂

      Venice, becoming a playground for the rich and powerful?! Venice in Italy?

      I find this ironic hilarious isn’t Venice entire cultural identity as a city is being a city of merchants?(Aka Billionaires?) Also why are they anti tourist? Venice’s entire net worth is tourism without they’re be basically broke.
