only if you consider it racist to criticise a group of (non white) people for extremely bad behaviour whilst mentioning their ethnicity,for clarity, so no its not "racism day" .
But then again people like you see racism everywhere don't you? and if you can't see any , it upsets you so much that you have to invent some to virtue signal and whinge about. Sad

Get real, who wants a happy ending from a male masseur?
Well not me for sure, but then again I have never claimed to be a fan of DEI. If I was that "woke", Surely it would be hypocritical to decline such an offer

No you can't all cuttings will follow the same date as the original.
thanks for confirming that. I read somewhere that a huge amount of ornamental bamboo originates from the same "mother" and a whole lot of people in the UK where whinging that their costly yet new and ostensibly young plants had unexpectedly died (of old age basically)

I did something surprising (to myself) recently.
I was talking to a Thai who had limited English and wanted to express a thought about native Americans, what others might call American Indians, indigenous people, First Nations, etc.
But my first impulse in order to actually effectively communicate the thought was to first say Indians but realizing that sounds like from India to a Thai so I then put my hand to my mouth moving it back and forth and said POW WOW Indians! OMG -- what had possessed me?
So racist. I don't think I've ever said or gestured POW WOW Indians before in my life. But he understood immediately, smiled and didn't try to cancel me.
I have no regrets. Sometimes you just want to communicate. But still a bit surprised that I did that.
Have you had such POW WOW moments talking to Thais?
not racist at all.

My massage lady could probably remove wheel nuts without a spanner.
now you are talking lol. But out of interest did you never consider a male masseur in the interests of diversity?

The problem is that any discussion regarding “intellectual capability” or IQ is forbidden in todays leftist western countries.
The “no child left behind” act was instrumental to the dumbing down of the younger generations.
The flooding of western countries with low IQ morons was, in my opinion, by design.
Springfield, Ohio and other small towns had ridiculous numbers of Haitians (average iq of 67) dumped on them, and it was claimed that they needed workers even though the unemployment rate in Springfield was higher than the national average.
The dumbing down of populations is nothing new, Pol pot simply executed anybody who even looked clever, Importing morons is simply a more "acceptable " method. Stupid governments are fearful of an educated electorate

Ask the Soviet Army generals of World War II how they would have fared without women . 800,000 were integrated into their armies.
well to be honest the entire human race would be extinct if it wasn't for women, would it not?

And in my experience they are also better at ironing shirts, but not much use at changing a punctured tyre.

Just wondering if one can successfully take cuttings from auto flowering plants, and grow them to maturity, or will they start flowering when they reach the same age as the "mother" plant

Was she a diversity hire when she became California's Attorney General, a senator, and the Vice-President?
Methinks you are clutching at straws.
No straws required, she lost , thankfully.

The relevance of that McNamara's Morons video is that DEI attempts to promote people beyond their intellectual capability.
We have always known the truism that "everyone will rise to their own level of incompetence."
What's different now is that people are short-circuiting the system based upon their DEI status and inflicting their incompetence on us all without even having the decency to put in the effort to climb the ladder.
And I jest you not - this is as serious as a heart attack. The 70% population is crashing in numbers due to depopulation. If you think things are bad now, wait till you see what happens by the year 2040, 2050 max. And a fair number of us will be alive to see that.
I wouldn't go as far as "bookmark this comment and come back in 15 years" but countries including Thailand will meltdown as there won't be enough people to conduct a functioning society.
I agree with what you say but I think Thailand will fare better than you think. They have their own issues but so far seem to have avoided the DEI virus

Tell me what you find scary about Harris. The fact she sliced and diced Trump in the presidential debate, perhaps?
She herself was a diversity hire thats worrying enough

You should be careful choosing who to fly with. In the US, 5% of airline pilots are female. Air India is even more, 10%.
fortunately there will always be a man present on the flight deck "just in case" and they are never expected to park up unsupervised

it can affect the whole organisation. Stock prices, dividends, and survival of the business are important.
those things are indeed important to most people who live the in the real world However, to the advocates of this DEI insanity who either live in the protected environment of low quality "universities" or who are "employed" in non-jobs funded by the taxpayer or who simply live off benefits, none of the things you mention have any meaning whatsoever

If that were true there would be no issues, but theres more to it in reality.
Two guys apply to me for a job one black, one white , both identically qualified and experienced. However there is "something" about the white guy i just don't like , so I give the job to the black guy , No problem and the white guy has no recourse to complain.
On the other hand if i just don't like the black guy and employ the white man, the black guy has many ways to complain and I have left myself open to a whole load of problems

A person with Down's Syndrome would not be qualified to fly a plane. A person of a minority race, gender, or even transgender might be qualified. If they are, they should be considered for the job.
"considered" sure that's perfectly ok but not given or guaranteed a job because they are "special" at the expense of a more capable "normal " person. If I was running a business I would expect to employ who ever I wanted without explaining myself to somebody like you

1 hour ago, khunPer said:Indeed foreigners discuss TIN and income tax in other forums than AN and in other languages than English, I know of both German and Danish. And by the way, tax officers also visits foreigners in person to check that they pay their income tax, either at home or here in Thailand. I've had a visit, and so have the more than 20 other country fellows where I live; the tax officer showed me the list with expat-names to visit. I luckily had my stuff in perfect order, they said, but they were shocked over how much tax I pay at home. So, now you are warned, if you stay in the Kingdom for more than 180 days within a tax-year, because then you might have an unannounced tax-visit...
Presumably you are, or were, running some sort of business ? I have never heard of any retiree being visited by the tax people, ever, in 30 years. Stop scaremongering

French mafia chaos: Phuket residents slam tourists’ alley blockade - video

So in effect the only racism in the OP was the tarnishing of the reputation of the entire french population due to the behaviour of a few "french" arabs This outrageous racism could easily have been avoided if the journalist responsible had reported the full details and the true nature of those involved No arguing with that is there?
