    I haven't read the Guardian in 50 years. The trouble with the anti woke crowd is they're really just a bunch of neo Nazis. How else would you describe them? Normal? People sit back and nod and go along with the constant belittling of minorities, people who can't fight back. Like when you say "It's a fact. Most British don't like Arabs". Yeah, sounds harmless enough doesn't it? It's just simply unprovable. So it gets let go. But it legitimises not liking Arabs. Suddenly, it's the norm. Most people agree. It must be normal. So what?

     

    It's mass manipulation. Those kinds of attitudes get absorbed into mainstream thinking, into kids' education, into the police, into institutions that are supposed to guard against bigotry and extremism.

                      So arabs are now a belittled minority?  is that even true? , and those people who got their heads cut off for upsetting them were neo nazi's? who deserved what they got?   

                     Oh and the old racist police thing, the police are not racists, at least not anymore, and haven't been for a long time, they dislike everybody,  except their fellow officers, the fact that there is a disproportionate number of "colourful minorities" in prison is a testament to those minorities propensity to commit crime and evidence of their ineptitude at it

                      You may be comfortable with some of the stuff kids are exposed to in school these days, I certainly am not, and I think you will also find that , again. this is true of the majority I personally have never heard of any school in the UK promoting an anti arab agenda, and neither have you so stop making things up

                        Bigotry and extremism are not the sole preserves of any particular group or race

    I'm British. I find your baseless claim completely outrageous. You're like Josef Goebbels, stirring up racial hatred. Most Germans hate Jews? Yeah, that's about the level of it.

                        Its irrelevant where you come from, I  didn't mention Islam as you earlier claimed , and I have not been stirring up "racial hatred" either, I simply said most british people do not particularly like arabs. You may not be comfortable with that, having met a few in a "spa",  but to deny it is pointless. I am completely ambivalent about it.

                        Now you  likening me to Goebbels !!    well at least its an attempt at a variation on the  predictable left wing insult 

                        people cannot be forced to like anybody or anything, you yourself expressed a dislike for americans, but i'm betting you only meant the white straight male members of the population,  You wouldn't  want to be seen publicly expressing an honest  dislike of any of the others would you?  That would not go down too well with your fellow guardian readers

    You're not telling me facts. You're giving me your opinion. That's not the same at all. If you were offered £100 million to go and play football in Saudi Arabia, would you take it? Bearing in mind how much you dislike Islam and Arabs?

    Who mentioned Islam?    anyway what a ridiculous question, I would have no problem taking the money, doesn't mean I have to like  like them at all . have you forgotten  about all the allegedly  woke (and hypocritical) sports people  that did not hesitate to capitalise on the recent world cup despite the arabs views on gays etc. Was that just because they liked arabs so much they were prepared  to overlook their personal but publicly stated principles and run over there? or something to do with money?

    I have spent my entire working life earning a lot less than that whilst working for people I dislike just as much as arabs

    Most british people do not like them , anymore questions?

    Shows how poorly informed much of the general public are about the issues around all aspects of tiger conservation.

    Conservationists don't just have to struggle with front line issues but also have to contend with public ignorance on a gigantic scale...which hinders their work even further.

    I can remember a certain infamous tiger sanctuary close to Kanchanaburi coming under intense scrutiny not that long ago and it did not come out of it looking very good at all. Was that a case of public ignorance ?  No it wasn't. The only struggle those "conservationists" faced was staying out of prison

    As the years and decades pass, and the planet warms there will be increasingly no places on the planet that will be 'safe'.

    Nowhere free of mega-fires, no amount of money that will insulate people, torrential rains, flooding, deforestation through whole tree species dying out due to increased summer temperatures and their inability to adapt to these fast enough, mass human migrations that make whats happening now look like weekend increases by tourists, crop failures et large.

    Whole areas of the earths food producing areas laid waste.

    Wars over potable water.

    Nice legacy to leave our kids, theirs, and theirs after them (if you are inclined to believe that man has markedly contributed to the earths warming).

     

    Enjoy your day.

     

    jesus, you seem like a glass half empty type of guy,  have you considered writing speeches for doom goblin in chief Greta Thunberg?   or is that where you sourced your detailed prediction

    Most British people. You've done your research then. It's a well known fact, most people in the world hate British people. Agreed? Oh, and another of my favourites, the vast majority of people agree with me. So there.

    I'm just telling you the facts, if you don't like them that is up to you, I don't doubt there are plenty of people who hate the british . maybe even "most people in the world " as you childishly put it, To be honest I could not care less. Ihe fact remains most british people do not like arabs, what's more most non arabs aren't too keen on them either, why does that make you uncomfortable?

    I don't see them getting much support on here either, do you?

    I don't recognise you as a spokesperson for any country. You're deluded.

    read what I wrote, most british people do not care for Arabs and will avoid them if possible, Nothing deluded about that statement. The fact that you consider meeting a few in the "spa you frequent" a privilege is neither here nor there. Most british people do not eat frogs or horse meat either, I don't need to be a "spokesperson" to tell you that either but you can safely rely on it as "fact"  these kind of things are just stuff that people know and accept, a bit like general knowledge if you will

    Well, it's an anonymous forum so nobody knows where any of us comes from. You might be Russian for all I know. I might be, also. Or Kuwaiti! Just imagine that!

     

    I meet Russians, Omanis, Kuwaitis, Syrians and Iranians, plus untold Europeans, Finns, Norwegians, Japanese and Koreans in the spa I frequent. It's a privilege for me. The ones I avoid are the Yanks. Just a big P.I.T.A. It's all Biden's fault, woke this, woke that, the US is screwed, the Democrats saw to that etc etc blah blah blah. Oh god get me out of here....

    Well I'll clear things up for you, I am from the UK originally , and most UK people, myself included, rightly or wrongly, do not particularly like Arabs.   Although there will be a tiny minority who claim they do, despite never having met one,   We don't particularly like people who are like that either

    You mean young Thais don't race noisy bikes around? And biker gangs that are all getting rounded up and kicked out currently? And good riddance!

    I did not say young thais do not create a nuisance that is not the subject of this thread, however our local police station has a huge lock up pen at the rear which must contain over 500 confiscated motor bikes all of which belonged to Thais. To suggest that the police never arrest or prosecute Thais is just wrong, it is their primary purpose. It really isn't all about tourists you know. 

  10. Just buy a few books on the subject, learn to read a little  and just go out and talk to people.  Much better than sitting in a classroom and a lot more fun, you will also save a considerable amount of money

    bang on. imagine if this happened in a western country and they said they were going to crack down on asians or blacks etc. the outrage and frothing would be huge. 

    albeit from a very small and very vocal minority and  even most of them wouldn't be too upset about arabs getting a rough deal, few like them anywhere
