My wife is from what we might call a developing country. When we go back to her home city to visit family, we'll occasionally go out to a store or eat at a restaurant, and while there, we're served by... brown people! Which makes sense because there are many, many brown people there. Am I supposed to feel bad about "colonizing" her city, just because I'm white? It's not even something I notice.
I guess I just don't get this odd American insistence on framing every interaction in terms of a power dynamic based on people's skin color.
Is that good/bad/classist/exclusionary/exploitive? Not really interested in engaging. Certainly economic unfairness is everywhere in the world. But "racial segregation" really isn't a good way to describe it.
Somewhat. It depends on where you are and who you talk to. As with everything, it turns out that people aren't homogenous with their opinions. I've found on a lot of islands that you can find people exactly like you describe, people who actually like the tourism, and people who view it as quasi-colonialism. YMMV as they say.
This is a projection. If you actually talked to normal people and listened to how they feel, you'd find they don't harbor these kinds of agitations. They're more concerned with affording groceries, raising healthy children, and having a bit of fun where they can afford it.
If you feel this way, it's either because you're part of an insulated upper or ruling class, or because you consume too much media from upper & ruling class outlets.
