  1. I'd like to see Trump go. There are plenty of Republicans who could still win with the core issues that were always there prior to Trump. If he gets kicked out, he could still run again sometime. The Dems have a lot of bright minds among their candidates. The next election and the political debates going up to it will be the most watched TV ever in US history especially if Trump is there to take a beating and defend his idiocy with more idiotic off-the-cuff remarks. 2020 is also going to be like its name: a year of clarity. Every topic will be open game and there should be a lot of red faces and a lot of truths about the US discussed. We are in a new age for the US.

  2. Sounds like a great way to get people to buy new appliances. Will they recycle the materials or just dump them somewhere then hold a big green party for themselves. Maybe they have a buyer in Africa for them which probably isn't a solution. Whatever it is in the end, I put my bet on no real green solution here. Thais are still learning what doing good for the environment is from all I've seen around.

  3. There are three Thai groups in my view and farangs also fit into these three groups:

     

    1) The fascists and their supporters.  This groups are the devout royalists, military, a large amount of civil servants, business people and people who believe in crushing voices to keep things unchanged. Farangs in this group don't really care about change in Thailand. They are partnered with fascist Thais probably connected in some way to the civil service or other institutions through marriage or business.

     

    2)Those who openly want democracy, free speech and human rights. These are the human rights protestors, people who post about human rights and participate in ways they can, and it includes some political groups who don't partner up with the fascist political groups. Farangs in this group talk a lot about human rights in conversation and try to inform others of Thailand's state through social media or directly to the people to encounter in everyday life and work. They don't hide their values to protect their friendships with Thais in the other groups or to protect their opportunities.

     

    3)The masses who are apathetic or quiet and cowardly. This group is the largest group full of people who don't want to think about things, have given up, don't care, or are willing to put their values aside for a peaceful threatless life. This will do what the fascists make them do. They'll participate in regime activities without much thought or out of fear of problems. The foreigners in this group will ignore their western values to protect their happy lives and opportunities in Thailand. They won't post anything that might cause their Thai fascist friends to rethink their view of them. Thais and foreigners in this group shut up about some of the values they may hold for personal opportunity.

     

    All the groups are mixed with wealthy and poor, urban and rural.

  4. Getting a divorce is pretty much not much different than having a second wife in my view. When you find the woman you are with was a waste of time, you can divorce her or just do what you want with her there. Thai women and Thai people are often subservient. They are willing to worship evil people so a husband who has sex on the side or even has known girlfriend isn't a big deal. Do what you want and can. Enjoy life. If you can't keep the first one because its a lemon or acts up, dump it. Sorry but it is true that most Thais mindlessly worship wealth, power and the privileged. There really is not right or wrong in Thailand unless you break the highest laws.

  5. I thought this already went to the Senate. Will Schiff, Pelosi and southern right wingers like Gohmert and Collins be out of the picture soon? Getting rid of Trump would be good for the US. Trump could run again right away anyway or another Republican could replace him. The next election won't be easy with or without Trump. Any Republican taking over would still be interested in the same issues as Trump. So there would be a shake up of faces but possibly not much change coming from the right.

  6. That sanitary pad story is begin discussed on TV. Once the fake news is out there, others post the story again as questionable news or fake news and continue the idea. There's endless fake political news all around the globe. Some people create it as a joke and others with intentions. But there is also true news that should be discussed but it made illegal by tyrants and abusive regimes. So the truth is, they want to ban fake news but they also want to ban the truth. We should just ban human thought. It's like they are tyring to make us zombies. Sadly, many are already zombies. I don't mean that literally. That isn't a fake sentence. I mean people don't think about things enough. There are no zombies. Oh. news is made of sentences. How many sentences does it take to make something fake? Or words? ☹️
