Yes, it is "simple truth" that "travellers" means "those who deliberately spread disease or otherwise attack and invade foreign lands" or "embassy personnel who are there to lie".

Yes, that is the "simple truth" that not everybody knows but YOU have discovered, because you have vegetated in your ZIP code all your life and hence are uncontaminated by neither the said diseases nor the said lies. LOL.

Or, possibly, a simpler truth is that you have no idea what the world is like because you were never curious enough to have bothered getting off your couch in front of the TV, and actually visiting the capitals of the world.

And because you have never been anywhere else, travel is a scary mystery to you, one probably including such insidious evils as spreading disease and lies. A sect of "travellers", who are bound to protect each other. LOL.
