I suppose the ability to rent or lease property is much easier for digital nomads than the locals. I think the definition is mostly about people who have the ability to just kind of go anywhere as their income isn’t tied to the local economy.
But, I don’t know. Read this article and maybe it’ll make more sense:

Colonialism is also about displacing native/local culture which is what a lot of these digital nomads are doing. One example I’ve seen are the digital nomads trying to stop locals from walking on the public beaches in front of their properties.
You right lol
The rise of the digital nomad is just soft colonialism with tech bros.
Fuck yes. Doesn’t matter if you’re a German tourist in Mexico, an American tourist in Japan, or a Chinese tourist at an American buffet— respect the local etiquette if you are going to travel.
It’s not whataboutism when my entire ideology is anti-nationalism. You don’t get it, do you? I want all of the Western imperialist nations to collapse, including the European ones.
Your rhetoric is weak and outdated, still viewing the world through borders. You think Musk gives a fuck about borders? Grow up.
Right. But, I’m an American who strives to boycott goods produced by slave labor and/or colonization by my own government because I believe class solidarity transcends borders.
The BuyEuropean movement is largely nationalistic and uninterested in class solidarity. Don’t get me wrong, I think the entire world should be boycotting American goods. Let the empire collapse, please.
But, boycotting American goods while still exploiting the Global South for centuries is not a flex.
Does this mean Europeans will also boycott goods that they steal from the 17 countries they still have colonized?
No? Oh.
China has 400 million “Millennials” compared to 280 million “Gen Z”. I put quotation marks around those terms because they do not use those terms locally. Their “Millennial” is technically two categories combined (Post 80’s and Post 90’s). Their Post-90 gen would be equivalent to mid-late millennial and zillennial.
I’ve done a bit of research into how other countries categorize their generations. They don’t all perfectly overlap age-wise. But, if we’re looking at people born around the late 80’s to mid 90’s, they all follow similar trends and behaviors, including the decline in sexual activity and birth rates. In the East, you also have Vietnam’s “Millennial”, 9X, and Taiwan’s, the Strawberry Generation.
Did not know this. Thanks for the heads up.
Yes, let all the empires fall. By default, boycotting goods made by slave labor/colonization would apply to TEMU, Apple, etc.
