Possibly some locals thought she was too blatant and it might affect reputations. Nobody seems to care as long as it is kept on the quiet.

This guy used to be funny. Now he's just another ranting Trump hater. Sad.

I think it's probably based around tourism. People like Thailand and it makes Thai people a lot of money. If they had a similar economy to Laos, they might not be so proud. You can't really fault them for that.

No. They should follow his lead and ask him for advice in how to fix their countries too.

Doesn't make it right.

Yeah, I read a book called The Language Game which claimed that language acquisition doesn't use the "switches" that Chomsky said so much that it's a game of trial and error.

It's probably this with a combination of "switches" and "language games".

Yeah. I wish he was still young and sharp. I'm sure he would have something interesting to say about AI and how it acquires language skills. Probably something interesting on the legal/moral consequences also.

People probably wanted to listen to him, hence the show. It's about competition.

The same reason this is a valid sentence: Colorless green ideas sleep furiously AI knows the rules, but it doesn't know what makes sense.

Exactly the same for me. It wasn't even gradual or subtle, just straight to "men are all evil, violent abusers of women". That's the problem when you operate a "customer for life" business model. Once you betray your customers, some will stop being your customers, for life.

I think you misread my comment. 😬

Maybe start with the locals and lead by example?

It's understanding the local cultural norms that cause people to act like this in the first palace.
