Exactly. They would have definitely doomed him.

Right. You can't apply the PC standards of today to any historical figure.

Thailand is played out. Expats where will you live now?
It's only an option. You can stay of permanent residence indefinitely.

Up to you. It should be pointed out that Mexico has one thing for retirees that is extremely desirable that Thailand will never have. Access to PERMANENT RESIDENCE. Depending on your income or savings, it can be INSTANT, or with lesser funds, you get a temporary one year residence, never have to show income or money again, and get your permanent with citizenship options five years later. That's a big deal.

Yes Asian food is weak in Mexico. That's for sure. There are options though in big cities. There are large Asian expat populations driven by industry in some cities driving that. European and especially American food widely available in cities! Many complain it's becoming too American. Mexican food in Mexico is mind blowing. It's very regional as well. For the most international options it's got to be Mexico City of course, among the greatest big cities on the planet. I think that's the place for younger people, but as a retirement destination, not so much.

I don't agree that partying is the main draw for most. Cartel influence varies by specific region. Morelia and Queretaro are considered the least cartel risk. Mazatlan beach city which is in Sinoloa of all places is considered safe enough. Even a place like Lake Chapala a major retirement haven sometimes has cartel issues but they generally don't impact tourists and expats. A much more famous beach city Acapulco (which I have visited and loved) has been considered too unsafe for a long time. I couldn't open that article about femicide in Puerto Vallarta but I assume that involved locals, not expats and tourists. Mexico is a much larger country than most people realize. It's not hard at all to pick the safer areas, but on the other hand if you're driving especially at night between regions, you need to do a lot of research first.

Well it's where the vast majority of American and Canadian expats move to and it's not even close. Mexico City is incredibly popular with digital nomads to the point where the locals are getting seriously pissed off about it. The trick is to move to the much safer areas, which the vast majority of expats do.

Silly to refer to ancient history but my current issues with PV are how miserable the hot season is, occasional crocodiles in the beach waters, the health care options compared to a real city, and yes the price inflation especially with the strong peso. On the coast, I kind of like Mazatlan better. Unlike PV it's a REAL big city instead of only a tourism beach resort city. Also of course more affordable. If I did move to Mexico now, I would most likely be looking at Queretaro with it's big city amenities, relative safety, and year round moderate weather. Also hard to rule out Guadalajara, Mexico's very lively second city. Or a less popular and lower cost inland colonial city like San Luis Potosi or Aguascaliente. Merida is the safest city but basically hot as hell so no thanks.

There is some truth to that for many but there are many exceptions as well. When I was seeking quite early retirement Thailand was the ONLY country that worked for me as far as visa qualifications. I would have definitely moved to Mexico back then if I had qualified back then.

Aside from Lichtman's remarkable success in predicting, a really cool thing about him is that he's open about his political views while at the same time being totally objective on his presidential keys analysis. The same man posted this and also correctly predicted Trump would win in 2016 which went against the consensus.

Hunter Biden Felony Fest - the new trial begins:
Cheap tease. Spill the beans or don't say anything. You just don't want to be on record because your theory like most of your U.S. political theories are most likely completely ridiculous.

Hunter Biden Felony Fest - the new trial begins:
That's garbage if you look at how the Trump campaign was totally unprepared (and still is) to run against Harris instead of Trump. There is ZERO chance Trump would have picked Vance if he really thought he would be running against Harris. Sometimes your lack of elementary level understanding of U.S. politics surprises but I guess you have an excuse as a foreigner. Harris won't melt down in the debate. That's absurd. Doesn't mean she will strongly "win" it but melting down, nope.

Hunter Biden Felony Fest - the new trial begins:
Whether the convicted felon wins or loses, I agree that history will show it was a mistake by Trump to do an early debate. But I think that was an accidental error. There is no way that Trump could have known that the debate would have been as incredibly bad as it was for Biden. I think its safe to assume early debates which haven't happened before, won't happen again.

Latest developments and discussion of recent events in the Ukraine War
Your sleaze attacks on Ukraine are epic. Zelinsky has nothing to do with Nguyễn Văn Thiệu. The Russia Ukraine war of choice by genocidal war criminal dictator Putin has nothing to do with the Vietnam war. You are obviously simping for Putin.

Kamala Harris supports the Radical Trans and Homosexual Agenda
You are very naive and/or a shameless Trump propagandist. Trump is lazy. He's a frail feeble completely insane old man who likes to golf, eat fast food, and is only running to dodge prison. If he wins, the Project 2025 people will actually do the work.
