You may be a troll but you do share the sentiments of others who want to 'get away' from tourists/expats despite being one themselves. Those types usually have a misguided unwarranted sense of superiority, or are pretending to be someone they are not, and the absence of people closer to the culture they were brought up in means they can masquerade with less risk of being exposed. Saying that I totally get wanting to be somewhere remote/rural. And being out of tourist traps is generally more relaxing and more wholesome. Anyone who is genuine, just tour around. Unless you speak Thai and have hobbies/passions in life then you will probably get bored though.

I must admit I am only so kind with non-Europeans. Even Thai people that overall I general like need to behave a bit better before I could be so generous. Why you guys continue to be so generous I have no idea. Maybe it's just boomers following the cucked out version of Christianity they were sold. When did Asians or Africans move to Europe and do something for the people? Trust me they never did.

Also anyone posting their Western lib nonsense on a Thai based forum is just a hypocrite, your thought process and the average Thai are so far apart. Go back to your liberal areas in the West and join up with your LGBT crew who are doing protests such as 'Queers for Palestine' and then go along with 'BurnLootMurder' who will destroy a residential area full of poor people because a degenerate career criminal got deleted. It's really time we make your little world even smaller.

That's why I say to the conservatives in the US, and in the West in general, that whatever this Trump administration represents is not enough and still under the ideology of Modern Liberalism. Really in a somewhat civilized country it would be like, yep this Daniel Perry guy did a good job snuffing out some no good degenerate loser, let's give him a job to carry on that work.

Define what the 'conservative ideology' is? The only thing I give leftists respect on is that they are following an actual ideology, that being Modern Liberalism, which is promotion of the weak, playing the minority against the majority with a victim/victimizer paradigm and other very negative mantras, but regardless it has its own talking points and ambitions.. The only way I can describe what most conservatives are following is Modern Liberalism from a decade or two ago. It's a very weak wishy-washy 'movement' for the most part.

Exactly. By modern Western standards I am far, far-right, but in Thailand I am just regular old right wing, and in some regards liberal, especially on how I would want better treatment for working class Thai people.

Well it's the point that a country like Thailand, which as much as I like it, isn't exactly a superpower country or even close to it, and yet they look after their citizens by only allowing them to have land ownership, and becoming a Thai citizen is safeguarded to the point where it's mostly restricted to people born in Thailand and have at least one parent that is a Thai national. Obviously an offshoot of that mindset is giving more rights to nationals such as cheaper access to national parks and cultural monuments. Then I could go to far less impressive countries than Thailand where the same ideologies are implemented. Anyway, as you are not dealing with a fool who answers questions without asking his own, what do you think about double pricing in Thailand and should it also happen to foreigners in Europe?

I have a soft spot for Thai people so I wouldn't say that as a fair person, but overall the continent of Asia yes, along with Africa and its populace undeniably.

Far right people in the West would be considered centrists in Thailand. How do Leftists who moved from the West to Thailand justify their move whilst keeping their existing ideology? I did even make a thread about this on this site and didn't get a a single reasonable answer. What needs to happen is these people should be kept to their Western metropolitan bubbles and the internet.

I always avoid bum groups who are drinking lao khao or popping yaba. If you're in a semi-decent village and you yourself are decent then just make sure you befriend the better locals. I must admit when I first visited Thailand over 20 years ago it was quite crazy with people taking drugs, murder rates were fairly high, but it calmed down but I have noticed an uptick in the last couple of years.

I don't have a problem with double pricing. National parks/cultural monuments should be cheaper for Thai nationals to enter. The land ownership only going to nationals also makes sense. It's only down to Modern Liberalism that has infected Western countries in recent decades that has BS'd people into thinking that some random from Asia or Africa should be on par with you as a European in your own country. Absolutely not and in reality they should be disadvantaged much more because they are coming from a lower place, but Modern Liberalism is inversion/the opposite of reality.

I have never been to Phuket and I haven't been to the Pattaya area in several years. I must admit I am not a stranger to Eastern Europeans. Overall? I quite like them. Especially the women. A lot of them of hot and I have had a couple of good experiences. Sadly at this point I would rather be around them than Westerners. First I have to filter out the non-White Westerners because there is just way too much nonsense from them, especially the American ones, then the White ones I have to filter out the men who are soyboys and the women who are feminists. Then there are South Asian, Sub Saharan and Chinese tourists.. Nah Russians are good with me.

It's gone from trading things with intrinsic value: materials, livestock, women, to trading pieces of paper that is supposed to reflect wealth, to now just some digital nonsense that has no foundation at all (if totally cashless happens). Complete load of <deleted> and I will be out in the sticks while the suckers are busy scanning QR codes and whatever nonsense is coming next.

As horrible as it sounds, you should probably ignore it. People below 80IQ cannot be rationalized with. Growing up in a multi-racial society gave me early access into the average capabilities of various groups. Thai people are not even on the low side in general from what I have experienced, but I know the signs: a certain glossy look over the eyes, barely any ability for forward planning, lack of ability to reflect on past incidents. Mostly just in the moment going off some semblance of instincts. I can't do that kind of chaos and I don't want to either.

A lot still have an opportunity to stick to their farming roots which some of their parents may have been brainwashed into thinking is a low activity when the opposite it true. Plus genetically farm broads tend to be healthier and more bangable so it's all good.
