Protesters in Barcelona have sprayed visitors with water as part of a demonstration against mass tourism.

Demonstrators marching through areas popular with tourists on Saturday chanted “tourists go home” and squirted them with water pistols, while others carried signs with slogans including “Barcelona is not for sale.”

Thousands of protesters took to the streets of the city in the latest demonstration against mass tourism in Spain, which has seen similar actions in the Canary Islands and Mallorca recently, decrying the impact on living costs and quality of life for local people.

The demonstration was organised by a group of more than 100 local organizations, led by the Assemblea de Barris pel Decreixement Turístic (Neighborhood Assembly for Tourism Degrowth).

    Because I’ve made my position quite clear, and am smart enough to not give you a hypothetical to attach to yet revealed moving goalposts.

      Your position is intentionally vague and you know it. That’s why you’re refusing to engage beyond generalities. Framing that refusal as evading a logical fallacy I haven’t proposed is just your way of avoiding introspection.

        No, I defined the parts of the situation I’m arguing from and stopped there. I never purported what the perfect protest was and am not endeavouring to do so
