Anti-American Sentiment Rises in Europe as Trump Fuels Anger

Both of these feelings will likely mix. People have the unfortunate tendency to stereotype others.

Look at hip-hop culture, it's bound gagged and raped by money whores whether it's street culture making dirty money or CEO pimping artists. They all rape the genuine culture just the same.

This does sound a lot like there is a racist subtext here, tbh. It's also patently false - there is no one "genuine" culture.

As a foreigner it is difficult to differentiate between them or rather: if the country as whole is politically mainly represented by these things there is not much a foreigner can do instead of being anti american.

The 70s was before my time, I remember the Canadian flag thing though. But as I understood that's more about not wanting to be associated with other American tourists who can behave quite obnoxiously when traveling in groups and taking full advantage of strong cheap local beers and the lower legal drinking age.
There is and always was some degree of anti-americanism from the left, but on a political level and not something you'd have to worry about as an individual tourist.
The headline is also a bit misleading in that sense, this "anti-americanism" is directed at Trump's shenanigans, not random tourists.
