Modern man has more experience with abstract thinking due to technology. This is the primary reason? Mutational load has been increasing in the genome due technology which is keeping alive people that would have died in the past and failed to produce offspring (Dysgenic breeding.). In many countries there are welfare states which are subsiding dysfunctional people and allowing them to have more children then they could afford otherwise. More dysgenic breeding. Moreover, population level IQ in America and other nations in Europe is falling due to 3rd world immigration. It doesn't seem like anything is getting better or people are getting smarter to me. Everything seems to be going backwards with the exception of a narrow range of technologies.

how did you install those? could you post a picture? I'd very interested to see what you used.

BS. make a test which shows a lis of all dog breeds at random and people will have something like a 95% success rate of selecting the pit bull. here's a question for you, in America which races prefer which breeds? I don't have the data but I'm certain blacks and hispanics prefer pit bulls at a much greater rate than whites and asians. 0% chance all races prefer all breeds equally.

Not true. I hardly ever see middle class people with them. The owners are part of the problem here too.

Because the same type of white and black person owns pit bulls??? Maybe you're different but pay attention to who prefers these breeds. That's a large reason we have so many problems with them.

You've lost the ability to see shades of gray. Purple doesn't exist because it's between red and blue? Race doesn't because it's a social construct?

If you live in America you'll know the type. Middle class people of any race doesn't keep pit bulls on literal chains and clip their ears etc... it's a always a specific type of thug.

This is nonsense, you don't need an absolute standard with 0% margin of error. People know full well what a pitfall is and what types of owners are especially worrisome when they keep them. The dog genome is well documented and you could classify the breed with precision if you really wanted to.

Nice try. Urban "youths".

I've come to believe the common man needs religion to live a moral life. Western nations are falling apart and I think the wholesale rejection of religion by the upperclass has been a major factor.

"unfortunate death" says the guy who didn't almost get killed.

1) The general inconsiderate and oblivious nature of the people 2) Reckless driving (see #1) 3) Thoughtless city planning that makes daily life a hassle (all roads are mixed used, no parking, congestion etc..). Moving out of any city fixes this though. 4) Roaming dogs (see #1) 5) Noise pollution (see #1) 6) Concrete, hot, congested housing developments with micro sized plots and nearly touching roofs. I thought suburbs in America were terrible but Thailand is next level. This problem is getting worse as Thailand "develops". If those were fixed (they won't be) I wouldn't feel the need to leave the country every year.

We need to find the Soviet blueprints for how to build a gulag so Thailand can start construction immediately.

Now this is a new one. Dripping water, seriously?

well to some degree the wealth disparity is actually a skill disparity. So many unskilled, undisciplined people that drive down the average and make competent people look like super heroes.

I just did a flight to the US which was leaving at 11:30 and by the time we arrived the counter before security was closing but they said there was another one inside (after security). However once we got in we didn't see where it was so we either missed it or the women gave us bad info. Luckily we got a permit earlier at immigration but apparently you can still do it in the airport even during late hours.

Thai's they have a reputation for being a sex tourism destination with it's main export being young girls that marry older men for money (or illegal immigrants) so they take their chance to strike back when they can. Fair enough but it's not making them any friends.

He's either a foreigner, white, black, asian, a man, a women or a specific nationality. People want to know who's causing trouble (a passenger isn't good enough) and the blame is going to be pinned on someone and tarnish some groups reputation so naturally we don't want it to be ours.

Not sure how yet but we're probably going to get screwed also.

This is why land is ridiculously expensive in Thailand and sits unproductive for 10, 20+ years. It's not that your price doesn't reflect the reality of the market, it's that you didn't pray to the right monk. Don't reduce the price, just do more praying and it will eventually sell.

He should have known better than to distribute obscene content in the sex tourism capital of the world. Some people will never learn.

The motorbike is using a common strategy for crossing the road in Thailand where they inch out into traffic and let the oncoming traffic avoid them. This is also the same technique dogs use (sneaky and no one will notice!) and is the concept behind the classic arcade game Frogger.

What's the ethnic angle there? They always report the nationality of the foreigners but this time I see a dark skinned person is involved and no mention of it. I've always heard Thai's and Indians don't get along too well so maybe we're starting to see this play out as they appear in larger numbers as tourists.

Thai's are often defending themselves against dogs with sticks also. They have no control over their soi's or emotions it seems.

I bet they're just lazy or don't know the protocol so they say no. Tiny little tyrants.
