The notion of indeed implying the tourists are foreign and refer to them as “uncivilized”? Really? Like the oh so civilized Mallorquín taxi drivers beating up legit Uber drivers? Locals often need to take a hard look in the mirror before so easily criticizing the very tourists that feed their families and businesses.
Slapping the tourist tag on this behaviour implies that they are foreigners but it’s just as likely to be local youths behaving like this ( and often far worse) as much as “uncivilised” tourists.
