Tourism in Iceland is out of control.

>The government can't handle it
>the private sector is going crazy with it, they are building shitty hotels everywhere.
>Midtown Reykjavik is literally touristtown, almost every single shop dedicated to selling tourist merch.
>Nature spots have become tourist-traps, no native wants to go near Geysir because of tourists
>They all wear the same shit, like they're going on an expedition to the arctic
>Almost every native is hotwired to be nice to them, being rude to a tourist is a mortal sin
>Everybody shittalks them behind their backs, though. Everybody hates them.
>Still act like robot tour guides
>All tourists are hippy leftists

How would you fix this /pol/? I think this is the biggest problem in Iceland. I feel like I'm the guest to my own nation.

It's become a problem in Norway too. One of the more popular tourist destination in Norway are the fjords, where huge cruise ships visit every summer.
Some of the farmers who live there have gotten fed up with it and started putting up signs in protest.

I don't know what the fuck happened. 8 Years ago, the area around Isafjordur was like my little autistic refuge, where I could hike and sleep for days without meeting anyone except for the local farmers.

Now they got fucking cruiseships docking in Isafjordur.

I mean sure tourism is good and nice. But isn't it a bit weird that certain locations get flooded so bad that the tourists outnumber the locals 5 to 1? I've also seen alot of Asians appearing in Iceland the last few years. They can't even clean up their crap.

Panama papers pretty much made the only right-wing parties unelectable. Lefty parties see this, and try to hammer the kikepapers into eveyone, but no one likes them either. So, the Piratecucks skyrocketed in the polls, even if they're inept and do shit all in parliament. They want to defund the church and their leader is a literal fucking neckbearded, autistic loser reddit incarnate. They hate religion, said that "immigrants are the only way for Iceland to prosper" and tons of other horrible shit. The only good thing about them is that they don't like the EU.

I remember couple years ago when my city was just a place to get on a ferry to some island. Now it's infested with gooks, anglos and krauts. Even during winter, they are always here creating crowds and babling in their monkey languages, taking pictures of food instead of eating it. Czechs are best tourists, they don't bother anybody(unless they drown or get stuck in mountain), they even bring their own food and actually have proper vacation where they rest.

There obviously aren't vikings in Norway, but there are a lot of people with a passion for history and tradition, and you can see them everywhere. They build, restore and sail old boats, learn old trades, keep local culture, food and music alive, or find other ways to promote their culture and history.
You'll mostly see it in smaller communities around the bigger towns, where almost the entire population play a part in keeping traditions alive. Most of it is in Norwegian, though, so they don't end up like tourist traps.

We never had the dutch government or monarchy ruling over us. The dutch did not do colonialism in the same way as the rest of Europe. It was more like corporate expansion with the Dutch East India company.

A cool free market vibe, all sorts of people fought as boer, not just those with dutch decent.

Going to Iceland was a huge redpill for me, seeing the tourist encroachment just broke my heart. Iceland is beautiful and one of the few pure nations left, it's only had independence for less than a century, and it's being swallowed up by globalism

the icelandic banking crisis is really depressing because that was basically their first dip into the world's meme economy and the results were predictably terrible

not to mention that these corrupt faggots and radfems keep getting elected into the althing

what concerns me most is the number of icelanders who seem to think iceland is boring and ugly and don't seem to care about their own culture, instead seemingly fantasizing about multi-culti as if it's something to be aspired to

Because foreigners don't understand our society so they all label us and other Nordics as "socially awkward" because we don't small talk and are quite reserved.

Considering it shows throughout the entire Nordic area I'd say it's the climate, but if you bring alcohol into it, we obviously loosen up and the whole reserved thing crashes and burns rather quickly.

I honestly don't believe we are reserved, because it depends so much on the situation. If you're among random strangers in random situations, most people aren't going to small talk. But this is generally a sign of respect, because we value other people's personal space. But the moment you have something in common, people loosen up. It also depends a lot on the person. While I'm a typical Norwegian, and don't talk to people unless I have a reason to, both my father and my brother, and some other members of my family, are hyper-extroverts. My father knows the entire town and can't go anywhere without ending up talking to someone, and my brother just seems to make friends wherever he goes. He spent a year studying in the US, and ended up hanging out with the wrestling team and playing basketball with the negro students, all while getting such good grades that he got an invitation to apply to Harvard (he was in the top 0.2%).

Either way, foreigners seem to judge our entire social etiquette based on how we act when waiting in line for the bus or at the grocery store.

Actually, it's because we're still people from small villages, and we don't really know how to deal with large groups of strangers when alcohol isn't a factor.

Pretty much. It's very situational, but my post was aimed towards encounters with foreigners, which we rarely have a reason to speak to.

In villages, it might as well be like the Southern US socially, because everyone already knows everyone and it's always been like that.
>>
>>74366075
>Actually, it's because we're still people from small villages, and we don't really know how to deal with large groups of strangers when alcohol isn't a factor.

It's the opposite. People in small towns are a lot more outgoing than people in larger towns. It's the same in every country. In smaller communities, you're always going to see a familiar face and there's a greater sense of community. In large cities most people are strangers, so it would be exhausting and pointless to talk to everyone.

I spend a lot of time sailing the western coast of Norway during summer, and in small towns you always end up talking to someone.

Increase prices.
Decrease quantity.

Use Environmental laws and unions to limit the market. (i.e higher pay for those working in tourism industry)

Only the most "gaap yeaar" wealthy hippies will come and they will often have a bit more respect or reverence for the natives and jet off afterwards.

Pull off a Caribbean and humor them.

No they're not you Boer idiot.
Iceland used to be a under the Danish crown but proclaimed independence in the aftermath of the second world war, after they had been occupied by American forces for the duration.
The danish government chose to allow this because a) we had scuttled our entire fleet upon invasion from the Wehrmacht and b) Iceland was already going to become independent because of a 100 year agreement between the crown and the locals.
>>
>>74363583

Okay, lets asumme you destroy "evil" tourism and no one goees to Pineapple Slovenia anymore.

Do you think all those folks in tourism could just become Fishermen and quarry workers? Would there be enough fish and quaarrys? Would there be enough market for the now overproduction?

I worked in tourism myself often enough and fuck would I think about complaining about it. We can sell stupid Americans and Germans and russians Jägermeister for 30-50 bucks a bottle on the mountains.
