Should we go back to discussing the atrocities of the Roman Empire. Also Saudi Yemeni war is not an historic event it is current. Exactly, what did the Romans ever do for us?

geriatrickid 21399 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 2 hours ago, FritsSikkink said: How much do you know about Asian history? More than most Thais including educated Thais. Asia includes India, Korea, Japan etc. and Thais neither care nor know much about any country other than Thailand. 2 hours ago, sanemax said: Ask teenage Westerners why this flag is offensive to some Asians and see whether they know or not . Educated western kids will know. And therein is the difference with Thais, because even university educated Thais are oblivious. Thais are not even aware that Thailand was a puppet state of Japan during WWII. They should since tens of thousands of Thais died as slave labour. 1 hour ago, NCC1701A said: Not an appropriate comparison. Harry was a kid at a dress up event with the intent to MOCK and RIDICULE nazis. No different than Allo, Allo or Hogan's Heroes etc. That part of the story was never repeated because it did not allow for the instant justice so many people crave. The difference too is that Harry's family set him straight. No Thai ever, never ever, corrects a mistake like that. Instead they carry on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe because opposite to the French and the English, the Germans never tried to colonalize and enslave Asian People ? I think they need more Jewish led Media and Universitys to make them know the unbiased Version of History. They get plenty of indoctrination already.

Not really an excuse, but then do we blame the schools for not teaching the world's tragedies? Of course, easy to blame the producers. Fire them for sure. Any adult that knew about this can be blamed. Then it's about how the kids reacted. If everyone thought these kids are clueless, then it's time for a lesson. If everyone was super mad and offended, then harsher penalties. How can this happen in 2019? Well, nothing surprises me anyone. Most kids don't know apple is a fruit, only a computer. Never been to a Thai classroom eh? Everyone I've been to has a chart hanging on the wall with important historical persons and HItler and Stalin are always there as are globes both round and hanging on the wall. If not taught why hanging on the wall? Every one of my Thai friends know who they are and watch the history channel on TV. Kids all know appun is a fruit.

It involved a world war that pretty much engulfed everyone, including Thailand at the time. No excuses. And Thailand fought on the side of the Axis.

This will always work.. In fact I bet this will be the first time many people internationally have even heard of the group. Don't be so quick to condescend, "oh they're just dumb, they don't know what it means!" It's a clever marketing ploy. You are the one unaware, they are plastered all over the place in advertising, even on the side of buses, they draw huge crowds at concerts. Even the PM used them for PR. The 48 franchise is enormous in Asia, just about every country has it's own group. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nausea 5409 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Interesting article here: Nazi Chic: The Asian Fashion Craze That Just Won't Die www.vice.com Too many points raised to go into them all but one did strike me as particularly worth mentioning, me being a UK guy: "[But] Nazi chic as a phenomenon in fashion and in popular culture started with the punk rock movement in Great Britain." John 8:7 and Matthew 7:5, kjv, spring to mind. Nazi symbolism aside, I've always found it rather amusing that the Union Jack fashion icon is ubiquitous, Rule Brittana and all that.

Until five years ago we had a phone box outside our house with a swastika on it.
