Well that's a catchy slogan....a sure fire vote catcher much better than Make America Great Again or I'll cut your taxes.

 

Yes imagine the new GOP rallying cry: "Make America Like It Was When Women Couldn't Vote and Blacks Were Slaves and Lynching was Encouraged.

 

(I added the last few words to increase the appeal of the message to the target population...poetic license). 

 

I think the guy thinks he's a white male supremacist. He is the only one in Amerika who doesn't know that the GOP is the White People's Party (the WPP) which sounds nicer than the KKK. His ideas might go down better with the Dumbocrat cretins. 

 

 

 

So what if he's and anti-semite and holocaust denier.....he's entitled to his opinions....are you saying that this invalidates his very deep deep thinking on the issue of going back in time?

Of course everyone is entitled to their opinion. I just refuse to take anyone serious who ignores facts and/or suffers from some deep unfounded prejudice, i.e. holocaust deniers, climate deniers, Q Anon believers, conspiracy theorists, homophobes, xenophobes, misogynists. Most MAGA cult members fit this bill.
It’s not for nothing that some of those phobias, if acted upon or said out loud, are prosecutable/punishable. Denying the holocaust certainly is.

He’s a holocaust denier and anti-Semite. He quoted Hitler. He called LGBTQ ‘filth’. He wants to ban abortion. He’s a conspiracy theorist. In short, he’s a total loon. So all in all, I’d say he’s pretty much a mainstream member of the GOP/MAGA cult.

And the plot thickens….

This guy is now well and truly screwed.

I’m betting he has serious regrets kicking and verbally abusing that Thai doctor now.

This is an abomination. The farmers do not seem to care one iota about their fellow Thai. Not one iota. If you goons were not bought and paid for by big agra, the burning would stop. It is your compromised nature and your unwillingness to put up a good fight, that is the major cause of the air apocalypse we are facing. People are dying and suffering in hospitals on your watch, and their blood is on your hands. You are cowards. You are incompetents. You deserve to be kicked out with a vengeance.

Why is this happening? Because "Stretta the tiny" is a man who represents corporate interests. This is the man who represents the elite. This is not a man who represents progress, change, or helping the nation to move forward. This is not a man who represents the people.
This not a man who cares about the well-being of the people.

Corporations do not want to clean up the air, they're making billions by fouling the air. All the government or provinces would have to do is crack down on sugar companies and the air would improve by 70% overnight, this time of year. One simple move, yet do they do that? Do they enforce any of the existing laws? Absolutely not, they do not care for the people one iota, the common man, us, our neighbors and friends and family, we mean less than zero.

Sretta. The do nothing man.

It’s not just the farmers, everybody and their uncle just burns everything. They really don’t care that when they burn their waste, all their neighbors will be choking on their smoke. I was in Hua Hin for six weeks and the neighbor of the apartment building I was in burned their waste almost every morning. Which sucked, because sitting by the pool in the morning, when it was still relatively cool, meant breathing in all that smoke. And they were burning plastics and everything as well, I could clearly smell that. 
So the whole selfish ‘I don’t give a rat’s @ss’ mindset here needs to change before things can get better.

Hard to believe people want to retire there and die a horrible death..  unreal.

Agreed. I spent a winter in Chiang Mai in 1988/89, the weather was great, not too hot, very cool nights, no smog. It’s a beautiful area, I fell in love with it and wanted to retire there.

Came back a couple of winters, last time in 2011, got bronchitis twice, the smog seems to be getting worse every year and the hot season seems to be starting earlier and earlier, and getting hotter and hotter as well. So no retirement for me in CM.

I didn’t expect such a huge number, though, of people who got sick from air pollution. I mean, 10 million people, that’s insane. But I don’t expect the authorities to suddenly jump into high gear to fix it.

Yes, I believe there is more to the story and she was most likely provoked a situation. Not saying this Eurotrash is right.

But, you throw a water bottle at me potentially injuring me.....I'm throwing.......just saying.

This has been pointed out several times already in this thread: the water bottle was thrown after he had already beaten her up and she was on the ground. Just saying….

It is called speculation not jumping to conclusions. Is English not your first language?

Judging by many of your posts, pedantic obnoxiousness seems to be your go-to reaction.

And no, English is not my first language, it’s Dutch. Is your Dutch good enough to post on a Dutch language forum?

Do you always jump to conclusions?

You just posted this: “Find this hard to believe. More to story. She probably made racist comments or something.”

Who’s jumping to conclusions?

I don't think it justifies it, but she threw a bottle at him.

A plastic water bottle, as far as I can tell. And only after he had beaten her up first. Then she threw the bottle and he came back to beat her up some more. Read the article.

Meanwhile, in the House, James Comer and Gym Jordan doggedly continue their ‘investigation’ into the ‘Biden crime family’, claiming they still have treasure trove of evidence. Funny, though, how they never seem to be able to unearth even the smallest bit of that treasure trove. Must be buried deep, so must keep digging….

Putin Boards Tu-160M Strategic Bomber at Kazan Aircraft Plant

https://au.yahoo.com/news/putin-boards-tu-160m-strategic-130104025.html

Apparently ‘Putin was at the controls during the flight’. Looks they’re going to try to make some kind of demi-god of Putin just like they did/do with the Kin dynasty in North Korea. Pretty soon and Putin will have solved world hunger, the energy crisis and climate change. According to the Kremlin, of course.

You’re being very generous there. My dear departed grandmother used to say “dumber than pig sh!t”.

And exactly what is wrong with that? 

What is wrong with white supremacist fascism, you ask? Didn’t you pay attention in history class? Nazi Germany, present day Russia, just two prime examples off the top of my head. Or would those be countries you would be (or have been) comfortable living in?

So, how did this really turn out soon two years later? 

 

Was called out as Putin friendly and totally off the border. 

 

Is it still worth it? Have Ukrainians been used as a piece in a much bigger picture? 

 

What now when other conflicts escalating?

So far, about 350,000 Russian soldiers dead or wounded. And counting. Incredible loss of military material, like tanks, fighter jets, war ships. And counting. Millions have fled the country to escape being drafted. And counting. And increasingly more people, especially wives/girlfriends of soldiers, are protesting the war, calling on Putin to bring their loved ones home.

So maybe you should ask the Russian people if it’s still worth it, to pay such a high price in human and economic loss, to satisfy the delusions of grandeur of their tiny little dictator. Oh wait, you can’t ask the Russian people, because no one is allowed to say anything bad about the war, or about their ‘beloved’ leaders.
