When you are forced to sit in the floor because the train is packed and there is no room to even walk inside, when temperatures are beyond 35'C, air conditioning is not a western commodity (btw, I am not from US) but a necessity.

Does it likewise amuse you when Europeans freak out if they are not allowed to smoke or if there is no designated smoking area in the vicinity?

I must say Europe, or at least part of it, got much better about this :)

COVID and global warming are both proving how medieval these conditions are.
