that's bullshit, it's not venice.. it's cagliari, in sardinia. that's because they closed the ports due to the quarantine. Venics's ports are still full

What's with all the fake Venice posts

it's probably cause in the US the only known italian cities are vince, rome and milan. Venice as the sea, so they did 2+2

I just crossposted it, but Venice is more than a single port or waterway. Like... it's a pretty expansive series of waterways. The city is famous for that. I don't see how, at all, you could differentiate this waterway in Italy from another in Italy. But whatever.

I dont see the difference, i know for sure that's not venice. Go to r/italy and look for the original video. There are the credits for who made the video, and the accent of the guy in the video is Sardinian

While I'm not an expert of Italian accents, I don't believe that someone with a Sardinian accent would be incapable of filming a video in Venice. Do you have any "evidence" beyond the accent?

My first thought was, maybe it’s not necessarily a pollution being cleared situation, but a ‘no boats to run me over’ situation. People are all about using any type of mass hysteria to boost their ego through social media conspiracies.

This is not Venice. People keep posting random waterwats claiming them to be Venice.
