Popular Post Chicken George Posted October 4, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 4, 2018 Who really cares. We Brits just made a joke of the German Nazis. It was our way of dealing with it..

After all you dont have to stay there. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The soon to be announced Super VIP Room is to be a tribute room to Joseph Stalin as historic accounts suggest he was responsible for the deaths of up to 20 million of his own people. ???? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soistalker Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 There are very strong Lese Majesty laws in Thailand. I would imagine breaking those in another country would have Thailand infuriated and cause an international incident. But a Uncle Adolph hotel room sounds like a swell idea in Bangkok. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thais adopt many images cos they appear "cool" to them without understanding their true significance, like Che Guevara T-shirts, or the Union Jack for that matter. One does wonder how the obscenely nasty, abohrrent, Nazis became a symbol of cool. Hollywood portrayals perhaps, or maybe bikers. Your guess is as good as mine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell that to the only surviving member of whole families sent to Bergen-Belsen, for example. Perhaps while you are in a forgiving mood, you can excuse the US president for his execrable ridiculing of half the human race too? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKDfella Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 War is war and I guess Hitler was different to other power crazy men in history. The difference here is about the gas slaughter, it's still fresh in our minds and that we wouldn't want to see that happen again. The Congo was another, though different in origin, tragedy and of the more recent events still in the news. Man's inhumanity to Man knows no bounds and I guess, and it is just a guess, that Thai children are not taught this type of history but plenty of Mai Pen Rai type of attitude.

How many doorhandles and locks would you like ? They USED to be unusual, but no more. If the hotel wants to promote a room like tha, why can't we have its name so we can boycot it.

Because the Thais always keep their #$@%^&* calm about everything! Like guys doing yoga in front of a Buddha! Or a Japanese Punk band, wearing monk- robes!

NickJ Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 (edited) Room Service? Yes, I would like a Chairman Mao water with a Hitler pork chop. Also my lampshades are kinda weird. The shower seems kinda strange as well. Man, I have been looking at these Thai mistakes for 25 years. They don't even know who Pol Phot was much less Hitler. Or have any real clue how the world works. The ignorance used to be a kind of blessing. But nowadays. The locals just seem like super Dipsh#$ to me. Glad I left.

Bangkok Barry Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 5 hours ago, Samui Bodoh said: "...Bangkok Hotel Features Hitler Hotel Room..." This is, in my view, a case of stupidity and ignorance over any attempt at malice or anti-semitism. However, this is not the first time this kind of idiocy has occurred but it should be the last. A few years back I had a Thai language teacher goose-stepping around the classroom; he was a good guy with no idea at all of how truly offensive he was acting. It is time for Thailand to educate its people on the evils of Nazism, the symbols of the holocaust, and the reasons why they are so utterly offensive to so many. A deep, sincere and public apology is needed, along with a meaningful effort to educate Thais on the past; this kind of thing should never happen again. It is sickening. Thais don't care because it didn't and doesn't have anything to do with them. Therefore, what Hitler did is of no importance to them. Simple as that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
