So leave if it's so bad. Is your country any better? 

Yes

The post has "exploded" virally - 2600 reactions, a few hundred comments and 1400 shares.

Can only hope the family will be aware of this post .... and puts up a post voicing their concerns and/or opinion about pervs taking pictures of their little daughter in a compromising position - once back in China.

We might then get an idea what "virally exploding" really means.

"That heatwave isn't normal"

For a tropical country, in summer, it is.

No - it is not

For further information, google relentless heat in SE Asia - hundreds of reports from the whole spectre of media worldwide.

Who to believe - a smart aleck? Think not!

The problem with you beta males, you hate violence because you are terrified.  Beta males should just behave and be mouthy and try to tell people to fight back.

I'm afraid, very afraid

I never said hitting a violent woman back is an alpha male thing,  I like the way you changed it to deranged women (acting like shes a victim instead of violent chav)  The problem with you beta males, you hate violence because you are terrified.  Beta males should just behave and be mouthy and try to tell people to fight back.

 

 

Only beta males don't agree with that 🙂 alpha males know who they are

Aside from ad hominem insults, are you able to discuss, like an adult, any of the points I raised?

Your points raised

Thailand no different to anywhere else, democracy doesn't exist anywhere.

Talking about insults - your statements constitutes a massive insult to the vast majority of the populations of Scandinavia, Switzerland, Austria, Australia etc. to name a few.

Thailand is no different from anywhere else. For example, what kind of democracy offers its electorate a choice between Biden and Trump? Democracy doesn’t really exist anywhere, when you think about it, and what makes it the best system of government anyway?

A load of bs in capital letters by a small mind whith a myopic view of the world limited to a part of North America.

Very brave security man that stand up for his dignity and morality.

Very brave indeed - managed a clean hit and knocked the woman out cold. Luckily she didn't hit the concrete head first.

Important to remember that she slapped him twice - beating him up within an inch of his life before he stood up for his dignity.

She deserved that 100% and anyone that doesn't agree is a beta male. Beta males hate violence,

King hitting a deranged woman makes you an Alpha male?

Only Beta males hate violence?

Not one car but multiple cards totaling available credit of a million dollars. A dozen of them have more than $50,000 in credit limits. The maximum is 75K. I borrow $100,000 at 3% for one year and then invest in VOO. I have been doing that for almost 10 years. A cool 16–17K in profits before taxes just to keep those cards. I know one person who has 1200 cards and lives off of the income from his cards. I have 107 cards in the last 

Ahhhh - better than growing money trees in the backyard.

2 questions:

Why is not everybody doing it? 

When did you last check your credits core? A million+ dollars available credit (unsecured) and counting ......... nothing further

Seems the central bankers plan is...*WHEN* the next banking crisis happens, introduce CBDCs

Public will think "CBDC is safer - it's backed by the Govt/CB so I'll open a CBDC account"

 

After a while make Central Bank Digital Currencies the only option.

Then CBs/Govts will be able to see your spending: where, when, with whom - it'll all be recorded.  

And they won't need to have to deal with a bank as your account will be with the central authority.

 

Great thing for Govts and Central Bankers is that, with CBDCs, they'll be able to automatically set end enforce rules on our spending in terms of what, where, we can spend.

 

So, after a while, introduce and automatically enforce rules on our spending

(where we can spend, what we can spend on, who with and so on) -

justify by saying:

"it's for the environment, you do care about the environment don't you?" or

"It's for your health" or

"It's for the greater good"

"It's for the war in..."

or any other excuse they can justify....

If there's a crisis, Govt/CBs can just take the money from our accounts to 'solve the crisis'.

 

Here's a longer video where the Head of the BIS (Central Bank of Central Banks) explains the plan:

 

https://www.pymnts.com/cash/2024/swedens-central-bank-proposes-rules-to-facilitate-use-of-cash/

I fully agree with your assessment of slowly sliding into a dystopian future.

Fortunately, there are some exceptions to the rule - see above.

Even more remarkable considering Sweden is an almost cashless society now with 99% of all transaction cashless one way or another.

Another positive side of getting the vast majority of people embracing the fantastic tech (nobody wants to be seen as a technophobe) and unwittingly assisting the banks in saving the cost of maintaining branches, ATM's and having their storefront workforce decimated. 

Positive for people holding and/or accumulating corresponding stock, cashing in on fat dividends😊

On the other hand - incredibly amusing to see the number 1 numptie falling hook, line and sinker for the number 1 April foolsday joke

I just started reading page 1 of this (currently) 10-page thread, and realised after a couple of posts that this was an April Fool's Day joke.

 

Honestly, I need to block almost every poster in the next 10 pages because (apart from a few), you all fell for this joke - time to count your brain cells! 🙂

 

April Fools day - 365 days, hard to distinguish🤪

Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin advocated for the legalisation of casinos to combat the shadowy underworld economy in Thailand.

Why stop there?

Legalise the drug trade et all ..... to combat the shadowy underworld economy ....
