💨 Abstract
A protest in Mexico City against gentrification and mass tourism turned violent. Initially peaceful, it escalated when some participants began vandalizing shops, harassing tourists, and targeting American businesses. The march highlighted grievances stemming from increased rents and displaced locals in areas like Condesa and Roma, exacerbated by an influx of American "digital nomads" since 2020. Similar protests are occurring in European cities, reflecting growing resentment against mass tourism.
