I will be arriving in Paris by bus and then I'll have to go to Gare de Lyon to catch a train, how to avoid being culturally enriched?
I've never been to such huge city before and I'll be going solo and carrying a large backpack so I don't want to get my shit stolen.

Wear your backpack on your chest clutching it with your arms around it, and make sure to have a look of utter panic in your eyes any time you see a brown person. Also walk as fast as you can and swing your arms purposefully, that will show the locals that you mean business and are not lost.

Just don't respond if anyone you don't know starts talking at you.
Literally that simple.

In Paris, yes. They invariably want money. You learn to tune them out, like the other city noise.

Be aware that if you’re American, France is a MUCH whiter country than you’re used to and every single black person will be a recent and likely illegal immigrant looking to rob or scam you. Do not engage.

Well that sucks, how bad is it around train stations? I was in Milan a few years back and it was pretty bad.

Well, yeah. The US is unironically 0% white. It’s sub 40% even with Mexican counted as white lol.

Unironically do wear your backpack on your chest if you can. Ignore anybody who isn’t police or train/bus staff trying to talk to you, this goes double for anybody not white. Don’t sprint from place to place, but don’t gawk either. If you see something you want to see stop and look, but don’t spend 15 minutes there fucking about and if there’s a crowd you’ll have to be up against people in forget it. Put on your bitch face as best you can and you’ll be fine.
