Hellfire

Demonstrating impotence to a dictator and then hoping he will never again infringe upon your interests is a profoundly misguided approach. History has shown that appeasement often emboldens aggressors, leading to further demands and conflicts. A notable example is the Munich Agreement of 1938, where concessions to Hitler's Germany did not prevent war but rather encouraged further aggression. Therefore, the situation is quite the opposite: showing weakness invites more challenges, while demonstrating strength and resolve can deter potential aggressors.

Another couple of threats to use nuclear weapons, and people like you will agree to give Putin whatever he desires. After Ukraine, the Baltic countries will follow, then Poland, Georgia... You will betray everyone and find millions of reasons not to defend your (now former) partners. Cowards always find excuses for their cowardice. Ukrainians—a heroic people who have thrown all their strength into the fight against global evil—easily become leeches in your eyes, sucking your money. Putin can rest assured—with the same ease, you will change your stance and come up with false accusations and justifications for the Poles, Lithuanians, Latvians, Estonians, and anyone else.

The issue isn't merely your lack of knowledge about Putin, Russia, and this war. The real problem is that, despite having zero understanding in this area, you still presume to judge how easy and simple it would be to establish peace by betraying a Western ally, abandoning them to a maniacal tyrant, and disregarding the hundreds of thousands of heroes who have given their lives fighting against this global evil.

You can keep repeating this mantra: “never ever”. Betray Ukraine, show Putin your weakness, show him you are ready to betray your partner any time, show him that you are afraid to confront him, that you piss yourself every time he pronounces the word “nuclear” - this is all that is needed for him not to give a damn about Nato or whatever name you give this organization consisting of cowards. Just read the history book, read about Hitler and Czechoslovakia before you call me lunatic.

Who is the clown who told you that putin will be satisfied with territories he succeeded to occupy until now? I clearly remember him threatening Europe and Nato before invasion to Ukraine. I also clearly remember him stating many times that Ukraine as a state has no right to exist. The only reason he changed his rhetorics (temporary) was the heroic resistance if the Ukrainian people. The next step is whole Ukraine, Baltic states, Poland and whatever territory putin might like to consider as a part of his Empire. This is the most likely scenario the useful idiots in the West will have to face after they betray Ukraine. Peace? Dream on!

They want Israelis to leave Israel so they can arrange another hell on earth (syria style) on the former israeli lands. Never! Don’t you even dream about it!

Typical Thai food is terrible. The only advantage is that it doesn’t lead to obesity (which isn’t surprising for such bland and extremely spicy food filled with lots of artificial additives). I always wonder what all those people who praise Thai food used to eat before. It is even scary to imagine.

What a bunch of BS

“The billionaire entrepreneur likened the decline of traditional internal combustion engines to the historical transition from horse-drawn transport to automobiles”. This is a blatant distortion of facts. Unlike the first automobiles that replaced horses, electric cars are merely another type of automobile, nothing more. Try to distinguish an electric car from any other in the traffic flow (without prior knowledge of the car’s make).

He sounds like a Trump supporter - morally challenged

In Thailand, it seems that robbing foreigners has become an officially sanctioned activity. Unfortunately, there’s little any of us can do to change this reality. On the bright side, there’s a certain equality in their approach—foreigners are robbed indiscriminately, regardless of nationality, race, or any other factor.

Such a disgusting comment

A funny story about these scammers calling themselves Buddhist monks here in Thailand. On the way from Isan to Pattaya, my wife and I noticed two monks hitchhiking on the side of the road. One of them was holding out his hand with an empty bottle. Usually, I don't pay attention to these religious figures. But I saw people who seemed to have run out of drinking water, so I stopped the car. We had three bottles of water in the car, and I told my wife to hand them over to them. Almost immediately, I regretted stopping the car: my wife started kneeling before what were essentially her peers (as "that's the only way to interact with these "holy" people"). And then things got even worse. Apart from their lustful looks at my wife, one of the monks pulled out a whole list of needs: they needed money, not just water. They also wanted to travel somewhere 200 kilometers away from where we stopped and were trying to hitch a ride in our car. We barely got rid of these beggars and opportunists by giving them 100 baht. I promised myself never to help these con artists again.

People from Isaan living in poverty often do everything to make their circumstances appear even worse: they wear shabby clothes, dress their children in the same way, and this extends to the interior of their homes and many other aspects of their lives. Yes, you are poor, but why present yourselves as even poorer? We took my wife’s child to Pattaya for a few days, and one of the aunts tied some kind of amulet around his neck. You should have seen the strap of that amulet—a dirty, worn-out string that self-respecting people wouldn’t even use to tie up livestock. With that amulet around his neck, the child immediately started looking like a homeless wanderer.

Me too. Definitely a keeper. Very loyal.

Are you sure 3 bathrooms are enough?

There is nothing special about Westerners anymore. Especially about all this blue-collar flock choosing Thailand as the place for their final residence.

The only group of people I’m slightly wary of in Thailand is ladyboys. These are usually adult men with mental deviations, from whom one can expect anything.

The problem with your posts are your ears. You, for some unknown reason, think you are able to understand which music is better... let me tell you - you are not. Jeff Beck is an absolute zero compared to Jimi. And those ears of yours… you cannot fix them.. just stop having an opinion based on those “not enough developed” ears of yours.

If you’re referring to the term “policeman-killer,” it could mean one of two things depending on the context: 1. A killer who targets police officers – This could describe a criminal or individual responsible for the killing of police officers. 2. A policeman who kills – This could refer to a police officer who has committed acts of violence or killings, possibly in the line of duty or otherwise. —-- English is not my mother language. Looks like yours too.

You are a racist. Be proud of it and stop pretending. Newton, Darwin, and Henry Ford—they are all part of your legacy. Hold your head high, you Aryan beast!

We need more judges like you and some of the other xenophobic commenters in this thread. I'm sure you would quarter this guy solely based on his non-native name. On the other hand, you’re the one advocating for pardoning a policeman-killer in another thread—again, based solely on his skin color and similar factors. Yes, we definitely need more judges with the animal-like mentality of us-them.

Would anyone in their right mind write such a lengthy post on this topic without using ChatGPT or a similar tool for help?

It only took four posts for this thread to devolve into xenophobic bashing. Usually, it happens even faster.

We all die at the end. You cannot win anything under these conditions. Everyone will have zero points gained - sooner or later. Some kind of cultural degeneracy is needed to assume otherwise.
