He shouldn't need to. There is no place for racism anywhere, in any country.

This doesn't seem to be racism , the Russians didn't seem to like a duke box hogger who wanted to choose all the songs being played

  • You've obviously never been a victim of racial abuse which is abhorrent on every level. Racists are nothing but vile scum.

    From the article: " a small restaurant and bar on the beach where all the items on the menu were in Russian. He explained that he turned on his favourite music playlist on the restaurant’s stereo

Why not pop down to Phuket and tell him yourself to go back to Brixton ?

    If you also went back to where you came from , you could both be on the same flight back home ?

Why allow the Russians or any other foreigners to destroy what was a lovely culture there, the Thais are quite capable of doing it themselves thats why the Russians have taken over.

Thousands of restaurants. Go to a Thai one. Phuket has heaps of good cheap restaurants.

All those restaurants serving Western food , all those restaurant and bar owners and customers should all go back home ?

Then it started. Should have gone to another restaurant instead of trying to force his ways on other people.

He was there first and then his choice was replaced in favour of the Russians so exactly who is forcing  there ways on whom?

Methinks it was the Russians who in all fairness should have been made the wait.

It will be the tip of the iceberg from the insidious orcish pukeinites the longer they are here or anywhere as it turns out ????

You need to read the full thread and replies  , I replied to a poster who claimed that it wasn't racist because Brits and Russians are the same race and I suggested that he read about what happened 

I don't view the 'Nixxxx' word any worse than the 'Farang' word.

Anyone who uses either is a racist IMHO.

So why didn't you write the N word on full or why didnt you  use X's for the Felang word (Fexxxx) ?

Humans are a lost cause

Indeed you are. :thumbsup:

It seems to me that black people everywhere are looking to be a victim now.Most normal people are sick to the back teeth with their moaning.

I personally have encountered this treatment across Europe,so what ,there are a million restaurants in Phuket,move on.

All this complaining about so-called racism will eventually come back to bite you on the axxx.

If every Black person did likewise, there would be 2 Billion stories like this posted on Reddit, 

No good combo! Arrogance meets Putin brains

I am an Aussie and not decent from a Brit 

Everyone knows the Russians welcome black people in their country....55555.

 

The only group of people in Thailand who are exhibiting racist attitudes are the Russians.  I know, I live with them in Pratamnak.

Can't wait until the Russians do the same to the Brits, Aussies and other Europeans who think this Black Brit was hyping the issue.....just wait, your turn is coming.  You think they like you because you guys are the same skin color....think again.  I know Russians...they despise the west!  Ok.

Apart from the Russians, Phuket people are know by other Thai's as being Jai Dam, in my experience of living here a long time Thai's are racist's towards black people,  

Thais are racist towards farangs as well, and not only on Phuket. Southern Thais tend to be slightly more short-tempered .

If I was in the Black British guys situation and on my own in a bar full of people from any other Country , I wouldn't insist on my music and my music only being played .

   The Russians didn't hate the Black guy because he is Black , they disliked him wanting to play only his songs on the speakers .

    The majority should decide on what songs get played, rather than just one person deciding

Black lives matter

They didnt kill him, they just wanted some different songs to be played .

  Are you suggesting that a Black person should be the D.J for the night , otherwise its racist ?

Perhaps because they are not Buddhist.

Just a thought!
