No fail, pretend teaching, copying and cheating is fine, no real consequences for anything, just buy your way to a qualification. Don't question or criticise anyone. Oldest person is automatically in charge viewed as being "senior".

Hello. Enough with all the negativity!
BangkokReady replied to Don Giovanni's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
It's quite simply that outrage drives views. Internet and social media changed everything. It's quite a sad thing to consider, really. It's a shame you couldn't find something more positive to talk about. 😢 -
LGBT Youth Scotland Faces Backlash Over Self-Harm Guidance
BangkokReady replied to Social Media's topic in World News
To be clear, nobody has mentioned suicide. There is nothing that suggests suicide is anything to do with the story. The story appears to be saying that, once again, a body that is charged with protecting vulnerable people is failing to do so, due to ideological issues. They have the choice to protect a child or protect their ideology. They choose to protect their ideology and endanger a child. That is the key takeaway, not suicide. -
Relationship advice / your experiences - No card or gift

Red flag. Was it her that made it bad? Is she punishing you for it now? Did she do things for him that she doesn't do for you? -
LGBT Youth Scotland Faces Backlash Over Self-Harm Guidance
BangkokReady replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Quite. In order to prevent people with mental illness from feeling bad, they resist stopping other people from doing the same thing. Imagine going to a doctor and asking for treatment for your illness, and the doctor says they won't help you because that would make it seem like there is something negative about having that sickness, which would make people with that sickness feel bad. Same principle. -
LGBT Youth Scotland Faces Backlash Over Self-Harm Guidance
BangkokReady replied to Social Media's topic in World News
No. It's very clear. The issue is that instead of advising people not to self harm, they are advising them to do it with a clean razor blade. If they really are failing to advise them not to do it, then that is a big issue. "Don't do it, but if you have to, at least use clean implements, and then seek help", is one thing, but not advising against it is totally another. I think it's once again an example of the "woke mind virus" and people's obsession with harming people in order to stop offending a minority. I would imagine there's an element to not wanting to say that self-harm is bad, because that might upset self-harmers. This is, of course, ridiculous and dangerous, much like many other woke policies. That's why the article isn't "sensationalist". If there are tax-payer funded groups that are meant to be helping vulnerable people, but instead they are actually encouraging them (in order to normalise behaviour to not upset others) it is a very big deal. -
Canadian Tourist's Warning: Assault and Theft in Pattaya Bars
BangkokReady replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
I saw some stills from the video of the beatdown in Pattaya this morning. The gang of Thais look to be having so much fun as they rain down blows with feet and motorcycle helmet onto the poor guy's head. Likely they were very happy to have an excuse to attack the guy, possibly they wanted to kill him. Violence like that doesn't come out of nowhere. People should think carefully before choosing Thailand as a holiday destination. -
I wonder how they would feel about taking this principle and applying it more widely to stop anyone from being mislabelled and discriminated against? There seems to be a lot of labelling anyone who disagrees with the left-wing narrative as "far-right" or "Nazi", even when they are in no way a member of that group.

Thailand Prepares for Bold Rate Cuts to Spur Economic Recovery

What about banning from getting in debt in the future? -
Are you ready for smartphones to become obselete?
BangkokReady replied to Jingthing's topic in Mobile Devices and Apps
I agree with these two. Wearables aren't that popular (e.g. VR and the apple thing). Even smart watches are just gimmicky. The thing is, it's all about the screen. Phones got a lot smaller, then got bigger again when people wanted touch screens and to play movies and games. I know it sounds a bit "everything that will be invented", but people still like tablets and laptops. The fact that these haven't been replaced by phones, and phones haven't been replaced, speaks volumes. Unless they can come up with something that goes directly into the brain and creates something that looks exactly like reality, I can't see anything changing soon. -
German Tourist Severely Beaten in Pattaya by Group of 10 Men
BangkokReady replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
This is by design and part of what is taught in schools. It's very easy to control people if you make them extremely nationalistic. You then have a readymade enemy whenever you need a distraction. The above incident is the inevitable side-effect of this. -
German Tourist Severely Beaten in Pattaya by Group of 10 Men
BangkokReady replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
I think perhaps this is a translation error. I'm pretty sure they said, "We saw the foreigner daring to argue with a Thai, and knew that he deserved a savage beating and severe injury in response". -

Over protection of children
BangkokReady replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
No. 1. You said people say "Excuse me for speaking French", but they actually say "excuse/pardon my French". 2. You said they use it when they swear by accident, but actually it isn't for that. 3. You said they excuse swearing by pretending they were speaking French, but actually it's a humorous way and there is no pretence. So, no. It doesn't say the same as what you said. If it was the same (and you were correct), I wouldn't have bothered to comment. -
Primary School Cancels Easter Celebration to Promote Inclusivity
BangkokReady replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Once again, they said they celebrate other religious festivals. You're wrong, again. 🤷♂️ No one is suggesting they should. Again, spewing nonsense from you ideology hole. 🙄 They said that they celebrate other religious festivals. If they cancel all the rest, then that's fine. If they don't then they are discriminating. It's all very simple. I'm not sure how you cannot understand it. Oh wait, yes I am! 🤦♂️ -
Primary School Cancels Easter Celebration to Promote Inclusivity
BangkokReady replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Although they aren't religious, it does seem logical to say that all cultural/ideological activities should be cancelled. Otherwise, they're basically discriminating against people based on their beliefs. Plenty of people will be offended or feel excluded whenever there is a cultural day that doesn't represent them. If they only target Christians, they are discriminating against one group based on ideology. -
Primary School Cancels Easter Celebration to Promote Inclusivity
BangkokReady replied to Social Media's topic in World News
And how do they plan to do this? By discriminating against White Christians and pandering to minorities! It's sad, but it seems that as with diversity (which really means no White people), inclusivity is following a racist and backwards logic (only including non-White people). -
Collision Claims Lives of Two Siblings in Buriram
BangkokReady replied to Georgealbert's topic in Isaan News
So she said to her son, "Get some tissues, the baby is being sick", and this caused her to immediately lose control and veer into the opposite lane at high speed? And it may have been the victims fault for suddenly emerging into the lane that she should not have veered into? Interesting imagination. I wonder if she was filming at the same time... Hopefully the police will be able to recover the video, but they might not want to work that hard. -
Couple Arrested for Murder and Dismemberment

A 22 year old mother, murdered because she asked people who borrowed money from her to pay it back. Thai people find some pretty wild reasons to excuse killing each other. -
Over protection of children
BangkokReady replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Its apologising for swearing . If you accidentally swore , you excuse it by pretending that you were speaking French . "Excuse me for speaking French" It's "Excuse my French". And it's not for accidental swearing. It's also not seriously pretending that the words are French. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This article is about the phrase. For other uses, see Pardon my French (disambiguation) and Excuse My French (disambiguation). "Pardon my French" or "Excuse my French" is a common English language phrase for asking for excuse for one's profanity by the humorous assertion that the swear words were from the French language. It plays on the stereotype of Gallic sophistication, but can be used ironically. -

What are you talking about? Your compulsion to disagree with people whom you perceive to have a viewpoint you dislike appears to cause you to make no sense at all. Why would someone need "evidence" to ask "How likely do you think X is?"? It literally says that the school celebrates several different religious events. If it celebrates non-Christian festivals, then it should celebrate Christian ones also. You just spew garbage and make no sense. Maybe finish your coffee, read posts properly, and engage your critical thinking before commenting.
