There is probably more truth in that sentence than any of us like to admit to ourselves, especially the last part If it was an us or them scenario, and by "us" i'm not referring to expats (well not specifically) they wouldn't take much persuading

That looks like the most pathetic apology for fun I have ever seen! If my parents had tried to make me go there instead of a military base I would have hated them for the rest of their lives only suitable for 2 year olds or the children of vegans

I agree with the sentiment but it ain't toys anymore , its smartphones and most of the brats would probably be a lot happier if left at home glued to tiktok or whatever. on the other hand we used to play "war" as kids even in our free time, its actually one of the the few things I can remember from infants school we didn't need any encouragement, even at that age we knew it wasn't real, in fact at 6 years old we had no concept of what real war was, No idea what got us started probably something to do with being british I think we alternated between war and football . Something like this would have been cool

Or death, just like the rest of us, regardless of wealth

if you could understand their language to any meaningful degree, you would not have made that comment

I remember the UK banned a song from chuck berry called "my ding a ling " ( it went to No 1 in the charts as a result) Censorship is not unique to Thailand

Sadly that statement applies to most people in all countries these days

I thought that was Germany but due to the modern progressive woke culture It probably applies to everywhere, well it will eventually if that abomination is allowed to continue

Over the years I have heard people of all colours and creeds make insulting remarks about all colours and creeds.. I myself have made insulting remarks about just about everybody at sometime, It really isn't a big deal. Its a perfectly natural part of human nature. just like laughing and crying

nobody would "get any" without any money

and there is enough information in both your comments to fully validate mine

few people can these days, and I am referring to matters of much greater importance than this

you are wrong bud it's at least 30 years take no notice I'm just being pedantic I know what you meant

Jesus give racism a rest, for gods sake

this entire fabricated rubbish is probably part of a sophisticated marketing campaign to advertise a $hit song

looks like somebody has just "woke" up and now finds racism in songs he hasn't even listened to

please explain why my previous post gives you that impression. I clearly stated that I considered the linked article insulting to Thais RSVP

Again on this thread a very small yet very vocal minority take it upon themselves to dictate what others should and should not do, based on their own panic driven insecurities. And in effect doing the work of the authorities by promoting the narrative.

Indeed nobody knows, that much at least is true, Nobody should be criticised for exercising their right not to have been vaccinated

I would also rather avoid catching a cold too, or stepping in dog $hit for that matter but I have not taken to posting on here about the fact, with an almost evangelical zeal, handing out advice to people on the measures I think they should take, Should problems regarding the vaccine turn out to be true in the fullness of time, some "lay people" on here are going to feel pretty stupid for applying pressure...

"One netizen admitted the video was insulting.“I feel bad when I learn the meaning of this song. It makes me sad to see foreigners using the song to make fun of Thailand, but it was even worse to see Thai people joining the trend." followed by "Some netizens thought that the song was good for Thai tourism and that it would help foreigners know more about Bangkok, Pattaya, and Thailand. The heated debate continues" I saw very few negative comments on tiktok then I looked on U tube and there were no negative comments at all from Thai So in my opinion the article in "The Thaiger" was far more insulting to Thai's, portraying them as oversensitive , and taking themselves too seriously which in my experience is just not true A pathetic piece of clickbait at best, as expected from that excuse for an online newspaper

in reality nobody knows, despite what "experts" say I know plenty of people who are still alive despite ( or because) they didn't have the vaccine

Ah yes the wonderfully modern Move Forward Party starting to show their true colours with a truly liberal and progressive stance, I remember well all the liberal minded members on here extolling their virtues. demanding that their wives vote for them, and whining on about democracy and the will of the Thai people I always said we would be better off with Prayut. This, the new tax rules and weed reforms are starting to prove me right Not far right, but right so far. again I wish I was Wrong

At the end of the day. what is wrong with keeping an open mind, Its not normal to be so blinkered

indeed Except most clips contradicting the narrative were and continue to be removed so that's backfired on you, hasn't it
