  1. Can you expand on this a little? From a quick internet search, it seems that "the Prussian model of education" was popular and has influenced modern education systems all over the world. Was there a specific period that it was like this? I always though the "Asian model", if there is such a thing, was far more based on Asian, or possibly communist, beginnings.
  2. Would love to see the reaction if Thai people were banned from working in massage places globally.
  3. Just watched it tonight. I'm not sure about staged, but Paul was clearly holding back. I don't know if Tyson was also, but there really wasn't much going on. Very boring fight. It's possible that Paul didn't actually want to hurt Tyson, as he was scared of any comeback. Or perhaps they were both simply sparing to go the distance.
  4. Can we expect one of these rambling nonsense propaganda posts every few days now? 🤦‍♂️ I suppose this is our "punishment" for Trump winning... 🙄
  5. They are totally incapable of telling the truth..because they wouldn't know the truth is even if it comes and smacks them right in their face as the Trump landslide win shows still believing the MSM/ legacy media propaganda...and wondering how the hell he won ! A lot of these insane lefties believe that what ever we say is the truth. That's why they fight so hard to control the narrative, desperately try to silence people, and come across as trolling/illogical most of the time.
  6. Possible, but why the sudden change of heart?
  7. It's on the previous page. Posted 16th October. The one you just replied to today. I'm not sure why you can't see it. Maybe some sort of technical glitch?
  8. How would Trump telling lies make people lose trust in the MSM? That was your claim, so I am questioning it. 🙄
  9. I feel like "have long been pushed but the Guardian, due to X not toeing the progressive line" would be more appropriate.
  10. Far more morally tame than what you see at various nightlife spots, and no more dangerous than what you see on the roads all the time. There needs to be some sort of information pamphlet on planes landing in Thailand, explaining how although the Thais can be wild, reckless and dangerous, you aren't allowed to acknowledge that in Thai culture, so you have to pretend to be safe and conservative outside of particular designated areas. This can all be very confusing for foreigners, as they often aren't used to the kind of "dual culture" that Thailand has.
  11. I think it's a natural thing. What has happened to Western people, particularly English speaking ones, is that we've had things like national/racial/ethnic pride kind of stripped away from us. Wokeism, progressivism, or whatever you want to call it, has kind of stripped away our sense of group identity, and the only place it remains is in political allegiances. In the past, we would have probably been a lot like the Thais, looking after our fellow countrymen first, being wary of foreigners, feeling no shame about giving preferential treatment to our own kind, and so on. Now that is all highly taboo.
  12. He gives an interesting perspective. A lot of people, and not just sports people, like the idea of leaving a legacy, but, sure, it is basically ego. It's about, at that time, knowing that you achieved a certain amount in your life, enough to leave a "legacy". I saw another clip where Tyson was looking at some old title belts, and the reporter says there like his life story (or something like that). Tyson said they garbage, that they mean nothing, and that what he cares about are his kids and making them happy. I think you could probably say that Tyson does want to leave a "legacy", but that is through his children, rather than through any sporting achievements. Which I think is totally valid.
  13. There's likely very little he can do as the "misogynistic attacks against women" probably aren't that at all. 🤷‍♂️
  14. Trump lying made people lose trust in the MSM that is totally biased against Trump and constantly criticises him? Are you really making that claim? 🙄
  15. I'm sure a comma or hyphen might help this sentence out, but it's not making a heap of sense as it is... 😬
  16. What the hell were children doing intervening in a fight???
  17. That should probably read "Incidents That We Are Labelling Attacks Against Women Surge on Social Media Following Trump’s Election Win".
  18. Rather unsurprisingly, the Trump-haters (communists) are actually quite keen on China... 🤔
  19. You think this is going to end up as the same as comparing someone sending their kids a posh private school vs. someone who sends their kids to a state school? I wish someone would tell the Thais that we are the equivalent of the wealthy elite within Thailand. It would be interesting to see what affect that would have on our treatment. You sound a little out of touch, or a little too keen to make some claim or another.
  20. Yours perhaps. Not mine. I can't speak for everyone else.
  21. It will put everyone on a more even playing field when it comes to education. This will mean that the privileged few will have fewer advantages over regular people, meaning they will have less of a competitive edge when it comes to finding a job later. (Although they will of course retain other areas of privilege that their parents' wealth and social status grant them.)
  22. No doubt not all parents could no longer afford to pay. Many will go to other private schools.
  23. There's also the moral of "Never stab someone to death just for exposing themselves to a loved one". The killing was not necessary and will no doubt have caused a lot of problems for the murderer and his wife, far more than the indecent exposure did.
  24. Donald Trump: **Exists** Jingthing: "Waaah! Fascist! Dementia! Nazi!" Joe Biden: **Shows clear signs of dementia and frailty** Jingthing: "Meh... Nothing to see here..."
