north korea is super friendly as long as you follow the tour guide at all times and do not look, breathe, or think too deeply about things the state does not want you perceiving.

Overall, Koreans are more reserved and formal until you get in with them.

Europeans can be very rude to foreigners and travelers. I never experienced this in the USA. Not to say that it doesn't happen but Americans are generally very friendly.

I've encountered both Americans and Canadians, they're always very friendly people, friendlier than western Europeans from my experience.

If you want to experience real hospitality, Asia is the place to go.

I would put Cuba on top. Despite being poor they never expect or ask for tips and people are very helpful if you need directions or help with something. India is unusual. Even though they cut you off in traffic and honk incessantly, it isn't out of aggression. Despite the apparent chaos they have adapted to it out of necessity. Road rage is very rare there. Canada, where I reside, is friendly in rural parts but urban centres can be a little indifferent. I will add that Americans are welcome here despite US leadership aggressive stance. We know it's not their fault and many Americans have sympathized with us.

Golden Retrievers are most friendliest dog breed in the world but then there is one who will go nuts and eat your face.
Same with countries. Generalization will only get you so far. All of those places have their own seedy and dark underbelly.

Because i hate people. Stay out and leave me alone.

Judeo-Masonic dominated media poisoned the core of the West far more deeply than the rest of the world. If you want an example of the exception look at Japan. It only took them 50 years to collapse their birth rate. Prior to WW2 and the introduction of vaccinations (not schooling with a lot of desk sitting and close focus, it was the jabs) eye glasses were extremely rare in Japan as well.

Most "True Crime" and even bodycam footage is either scripted or made up as well, by the way. It's all to keep you in perpetual terror and shape your expectations of the world, and the hook is the idea that if you engage with it you can be prepared and come out on top. They understand quite well how to hook the self protection impulses.

Japan, South Korea, and China have also been the test cases for what they intend for the rest of the world.

Only a minute in. What the first woman is describing with the sword is similar to "animal hypnosis", or parental based compliance responses. It's the same reason the Pharoah came out to address people on an elevated platform with the sun to his back. It makes people look up, stare into a bright light, and often sit down as well depending on the setting. All of these are ancient methods of behavior control. Same reason the King's face is on the coinage, to achieve omnipresence. These methods were formalized in Media, ie the Medes, what became Persia. Perhaps this machinery is wired more strongly in women because simply submitting and attaching to the new guy in charge (often taller than them, so they'd have to look up) meant survival was probable. Whereas in men you'd either be killed, castrated, enslaved, whatever.

1. Too bad about all the sectual assaults
2. Too bad about all the monkeys trained to steal from tourists
3. Too bad about the oppressive religion
4. Too bad about the child slave labour force
5. Too bad about the epidemic of ethanol poisoning

🤷🏻‍♂️

Bhutan is super friendly, OP.

1. nagas, offers wisdom and assistance to mortals.

2. kikimora, just wants to clean your house.

3. aralez, flying dogs. their licks heal wounds

4. kobolds and hobs, will clean your house if you give them food

5. wulver, wolf head man who leaves fish for poor people to eat

nagas are from hindu mythology, so i guess at least the mythological creatures in india are friendly sometimes.

So moral of the story is people are on average more friendly than unfriendly, anywhere you go.
