Ethics, Friday, October 9, 2020
"Good morning, class," Anakin said, sweeping into the room. "Next week is Fall Break and so today we'll explore the ethics of interacting with other cultures."
He leaned against his desk. "We will not be out in socially fraught situations--we're a school and we're not going to set you up to fail like that--but standing in lines correctly, noticing how closely people stand together and greet each other, how loudly they speak and then imitating that--it's all part of being a polite guest in someone else's space. So, today we'll talk about what you've noticed tourists or outsiders visiting your homelands get wrong and how you'd prefer them to behave, and then you can think on that when we go to Europe next week."

Re: Bitch about tourists!
"I don't like when they complain about the food," Wei Wuxian said. "The Yunmeng Noodle Plate is famously spicy. Why would you order it if you don't can't handle a little heat?" He frowned. "Also, some visitors go out on the lake without a guide and don't know how to watch for storms. Most of the fierce ghosts in Lotus Lake were tourists. We could have saved them if they'd only asked about the weather."
