That's an assumption, so it's always good to make sure that people are aware of all the available options. O visas plus re-entry permits (if extended) are more hassle than the elite visa, plus O visa rules can change each year. It all depends how much spare cash the OP has, and how much he values forgetting about visas for the next 20 years.
Multiply all that O visa uncertainty and hassle twenty times over twenty years though. The carefree elite visa is still a good option for those who can afford it.
It's not up to other countries or "experts" to dictate Thailand's foreign policy, or describe Thai diplomacy as undiplomatic. Who do these people think they are?
Too many celebrities try to make comebacks, which for me spoils memories of their former glory. That said, comedy has been completely strangled by wokism, so Cleese is one of the last funny men left, sadly.
I think distracted is the key word in your post. People are also afraid of denunciation by wokist cancel culture mobs, and of losing their jobs if they speak out.
Oh really? How so? And you still didn't answer my earlier question. If, as you believe, children should be allowed access to adult sexuality, then do you believe in the age of consent?
Agreed. It's a shame that the LGBTQIA rights movement has been infiltrated by a minority of paedophiles, who go after other people's children and smear concerned parents as "far right".
That's a fact. Even the bottle of mouthwash I bought a while back had pride stuff all over it. What on earth for?
Marketing people are so hooked on the latest woke fads that they don't care about alienating half of their customers. Bud Light and Gillette come to mind.
I'm genuinely curious, because I can't fathom how your mind works: if children should have access to the adult realm of sexuality, do you support abolishing the age of consent and allowing children to go out and get drunk?
