It’s so wild that they named after one of the Dulles brothers. Truly two of the most evil people who ever lived. And we’re still living in a world grappling with the fallout of their crimes, and those who wish to continue their legacy.

    Never trust countries with the following:

    3. Airports named after people.

2. Streets named after dates.

1. Background music on news reports.

    If you do somehow find yourself in a country with one or more those things, back away slowly and quietly until you are over the border.

    There's a lot of countries with airports named after people. Weird thing to be triggered over.

    I disagree - klu9 really has a point here. We are naming things after people to honor them. And if you find a country where big infrastructure projects are named after politicians, you should be sceptical. Why this politician? Who decided to honor him in this way?
