What holiday destination is the most concerning?

With everything that's happening over there rn, probably the US

I'd say inside the country, it's not as bad as the news makes it sound, because cameras are only pointing at the worst events. It's a pretty big country and most people are content to just leave each other alone.
...But a huge radius around the borders or airports are "Constitution-free" zones where nobody has any rights, and our borders/customs folks have a reputation for being less than kind. And those zones, bad enough as they are, are so freakishly large that most people in any populated area are within those zones...so...
...Yeah, maybe wait. . .
Especially considering whatever tf they're doing at the border now, yea it's for the best

Probably Morocco if you're travelling solo as a woman

I've heard Egypt is particularly bad for this.
I also got offered 20 camels for my girlfriend at the time in Tunisia. I did that chap a big favour by not taking him up on his offer.

The Darién Gap would be pretty wild. Also Haiti.

So I was watching a video the other day about weird coincidences, and there was one entry where some guy was told he'd already checked in for a flight. After much confusion, it turned out there were two guys of the exact same name booked on the same flight going to the same place.

Two balding middle aged white guys. Travelling alone - until they each made a new friend anyway - to Thailand.

The line at the top of Mount Everest.

some people even did K2, and thats more dangerous than everest.
But your style can be remembered for ages.

all the ones that are super-authtorian ones: russia, NK, USA, Saudia arabia if you are in a certain demographic. all the war torn ones that were ruined by israel. places where you have no experience in, like deep jungle in South and central america, and antartica and also mt everest, K2.

too many westerners thought they could venture out in the jungle with no directions or guides.

Thailand? No. Beautiful country with nice people.

Thailand and specifically going to Pattaya? Very much so. Going to the Philippines and telling you "Pattaya isn't what it used to be" as a reason? Here officer this guy right there! That is direct code for either the guy wants younger sex slaves or is into shit that even in Thailand won't fly anymore.

It probably sounds a little weird, but while I was sitting at the safety of my "occupy a desk until someone asks questions" job that sapped my soul, I often would research places I really, really wouldn't want to be.

In a weird way I find this "Dark tourism behind a screen" to be a bit fascinating in a "safe danger " kind of way.

Reading the state department's notices on some countries really puts in perspective. They're like "Don't go here without an armored vehicle, armed security detail, and most preferably a good friggin reason. Even still, have a next of kin lined up and ransom plans."

Edit: also "Oh yeah, if everything goes bad off embassy grounds (if there even is one) our ability to intervene is limited. Don't expect direct support to come save you."

Like. Damn.
