If this were a picture of Trump hogtied I’m sure your reaction would be quite different.

I assume that many women in Thailand are totally financially dependent on their farang husband/boyfriend and have nowhere to go, even if the guy is abusive. The dependency increases, I suspect, when the women reach a certain age. This would explain why a 53-year-old Thai woman keeps going back to her abusive husband. And to those posters who think it’s okay to beat up a woman: shame on you. Of course you can defend yourself, but there is almost always the option of just walking (or running) away. This Austrian guy seems to take pleasure in beating up his wife. Despicable excuse for a man. I would hope the Thai woman has some male relatives who can sort that a-hole out, so that it will never happen again.

There is indeed one very easy solution: fire the whole lot and start building it from the ground up with non-corrupt people. Although finding non-corrupt people in Thailand who are willing to do the job may be a bit difficult. One more tip: increase their wages so they can live on it, and don’t have to resort to illegal measures to supplement their meager income.

The MAGA mob won’t give a flying ****: they will just go after all the jurors. Trump will point them in that general direction and his cult followers will do his bidding and threaten everyone even remotely involved.

FSB chief suggests US, UK and Ukraine are behind concert hall attack. The insane propaganda continues…… https://news.sky.com/story/russia-moscow-shooting-latest-ukraine-islamic-state-live-sky-news-blog-12541713

So what? If someone robs a bank in the US and then heads for Canada or Mexico, does that mean Canada or Mexico had something to do with that bank robbery? And who knows where they were actually apprehended? The fact that Russia says they were apprehended there doesn’t mean that they were.

Isis claimed the attack, also posted video of it on one of ‘their’ social media outlets. Some (or all) of the attackers seem to be from Tadzjikistan, which seems to have become a hotbed for wannabe Islamic terrorists. There is no connection whatsoever with Ukraine, no matter what Putin or his cronies claim.

Whre did I say that? But at least they were trying to weed out the lies, the conspiracy theories, the racism, the anti LGBQT, the antisemitism, and so on. You know, ‘hate speech’. Maybe this is antisemitic enough for you? https://time.com/6336123/elon-musk-antisemitic-post-x/

Jeez, all these reaction to one single post of mine. Did I touch a nerve there or something?

Your wife is right. I have seen at least one winter (possibly two) in Chiang Mai with clear skies, you could see for miles, you could always see Doi Suthep very clearly. I actually don’t recall any major fires. Undoubtedly there must have been farmers burning their fields after harvesting, but not in any way as massive as has been happening over the last 20-25 years. Here are two pictures from January 1989. I was living on Nimanheamin and this was the view from our bedroom window. It was almost always sunny and clear, like in the first picture. I imagine Chiang Mai and Nimanhaemin must look very different now. Have no idea, haven’t been back there in a long time.

If you fancy a good pneumonia or bronchitis (or worse), you should indeed come to Chiang Mai. If not, stay the hell away from the heavy air pollution that plagues the north for months every year and that the authorities can’t be bothered to do something about.

an unbiased platform promoting free speech. Nearly fell out of my chair because I had to laugh so hard when I read that. You mean a platform where people can post the most outrageous lies, conspiracy theories and antisemitism? Including Musk himself?

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think the consensus here seems to be that this poster was kicked off this forum several times because he was acting like a douche. Hence the name change(s).

TWS

There are also lots of TWS (Trump worship syndrome) people. Quite a few on this forum and in this thread as well. I won’t name names….

Musk can say that a million times, but I still won’t believe him. Putin said he liked Biden to be the next president. Do you believe him?

If I were the Thai government, I’d start investing in education, trying to change the mindset of the vast majority of people. Because right now, there’s too much ignorance, too much indifference and (way) too much selfishness. Most people just don’t give a damn. But I don’t see that happening any time soon. Educating the people is dangerous as far as the elite is concerned, and as long as they call the shots, nothing much is going to change.

Of course it’s about who’s the biggest liar, stop embarrassing yourself. Trust the one who demonstrably lied over 30,000 times during his presidency, or the one who lied a lot less? That’s not a difficult question for most people with a functioning brain. And lies are subjective now? Who’s the biggest liar is subjective? Ever heard of facts? And you can keep accusing everyone you don’t agree with of TDS until you’re blue in the face, that’s just your knee jerk reaction. I could just as easily accuse you of Trump worship syndrome (TWS), and being completely blind to the many, many crimes he committed, to the many, many lies he keeps spewing, and to the many, many flaws in that man’s personality.

Trump appears to be the biggest liar, so…… https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidmarkowitz/2021/04/30/who-lied-more-during-their-first-100-days-biden-trump-or-obama/

So many sarcastically challenged members on this forum. Sheesh. Next time I will be sure to include this:

MAGA would happily embrace Beelzebub himself (and probably has) if he (she?) endorsed Trump.

Yeah, such a shame, isn’t it? Should be a law against that or something.

1. Who cares? Elections are still 7,5 months away 2. Kanye West is bat crap crazy. 3. UFC is for lunatics. 4. Donald Trump is a once (maybe) rich former reality show host who’s out of touch with reality like all his followers.

Taylor Swift called on her followers to register to vote. Not sure if you can do that if you’re 12 to 17 years old. But Taylor Swift doing that freaked out the MAGA cult to such a degree that they had to come up with whole new conspiracy theories to be able to deal with that. So what if De Niro is now hated by millions of former fans (which I doubt very much, by the way) because of his anti Trump comments? It’s what MAGA does: say something bad about their idol and messiah and you’re on their sh!t list and get death threats. I’m quite sure De Niro doesn’t care one iota and isn’t losing one minute of sleep over it.

I wouldn’t bet money on that assertion, if I were you. And I don’t think there are 500 million 13yo girls in the world.
