Philanthropist? Soros? Isn't he like a real life Bond villain?

Thai people: "We want freedom and democracy. Down with this oppressive regime!" Also Thai people: "The prices of things have gone up, please can you pay for some of it so we can afford it?"

Very tragic and sad event, but this isn't what "butchered" means.

I doubt he's a foreign person in "his country".

How many governor spots were they? I thought there was only one. How can so many being wining and losing against each other?

If the case never gets tried, it goes away quicker. It's only a foreigner and he's a Thai, so... ????‍♂️

Stands to reason that some Thai police actually trying to address a threat to public safety involving the breaking of the law would end badly. Thai people generally don't really want the law to be enforced unless they are directly a victim of a crime.

They were still involved in gang activity with someone with a gun. They could have easily been involved in a situation where they, their friends, or someone else was shot and possibly killed.

Sounds like a big school drop-out rate during covid. They didn't wait for covid to finish then drop out.

A man whose job it was to keep an eye on others and make sure they were safe, wasn't able to expect the same in return. ????

If a work colleague didn't show up to work for several days and also didn't answer their phone, I would likely go to their house or contact another person who either knew them or lived near them. This seems like what most people would do. You're question, perhaps accidentally, changed the details of the scenario considerably. You might want to think about why. ????‍♂️

The claim of someone smuggling cocaine from the UK to Thailand was suspect right out the gate. People already smuggle drugs to the UK from Asia, there would be zero point in smuggling them out of the UK once there. And they said the Thai girlfriend had nothing to do with it, so some random from the UK with well off parents decides all by himself to smuggle drugs back to one of their possible origins just seems insane.

The responses seemed a little fishy also. Replying to obvious joke responses seriously with "Thank you dear reader, blah blah blah".

"Gosh mother! That liquid looks frightfully smelly!!

Not at work and not answering his phone might prompt a visit to his residence.

Allow... punished... ???? Do you think they allow dancing if they punished the staff for doing it? ????

This sounds an awful lot like far-left propaganda. Fairly regular people are questioning things like pronouns, the safety of women and children, fairness and safety in sports, the legitimacy of Antifa and BLM, and so on. You can lie all you want, but people are waking up to this sort of thing. The days of scaring regular people who think "ooooh, I don't want to offend anyone" and just let themselves get walked over are rapidly running out.

I'm not sure they even experience love in Asia in the same way we do in the west. It seems that love is for the family and relationships are more about money and sex. It seems almost like they "choose" to love someone, but it's really more like they choose someone and then say that they love them, like they've chosen to be with you so that is love.

This should be standard. It should be done at the hospital at birth, or even prenatal, as a rule. Of course women won't like it, they will be scared to be caught out or want to pretend that women would never do things like that. It's like the "a woman would never lie about rape/sexual assault". Just a pretence that women are always perfect and perpetual victims.

What do you like to collect? Any particular type?

If she's close with a male "friend" and staying out late, that isn't jealousy, that's unacceptable behaviour. You shouldn't be with someone who has that kind of relationship with another man. You should aim to vet for that beforehand, or end the relationship if something like that occurs. Get out of there and find someone who actually wants to spend time with you. You don't "deal with it", you listen to it. If your gut says something isn't right, then probably something isn't right. There's nothing "illogical" about jealousy, don't let women gaslight you. The limbic system is your friend when it comes to trust, as your conscious mind can be lied to easily. Trust your gut. If you think something is wrong, it probably is. Unless you are in an open relationship. If that's the case, and your gut is saying "don't do this", an open relationship is not for you. I'm not sure why anyone would want to be with someone who is going out so much and acting so suspiciously that you could imagine they are having an affair. That's a major red flag, even if they aren't actually cheating. Sure, they could do it in secret also, but that's no reason to tolerate it if you see it overtly.

Makes you wonder if it was stress related to covid and upon spotting a foreigner he saw someone to blame for his problems. Very sad that as Thailand is looking to open up and bring back tourism, some Thai people are choosing not to be very welcoming.

Do they even have the concept of a close friend in Thailand? I always figured friends were a little bit easy come, easy go in Thailand. Kind of friends with everyone so close friends with no one.

Something for the people who say that "lack of enforcement by the police is the reason for people not following the law" to think about. Thai people don't really want them to. ????‍♂️

Does anyone else find this kind of thing a little tacky?
