Western Liberals: How Do You Justify Your Stay in Thailand?

[Walker88]

Funny post. Got some Dunning-Kruger and Downing Effect showing. Just going to guess not tops in your class in school.

 

The right wing types who are Thais are in the top .1%, and guaranteed they have nothing to do with the OP. They view guys like him as a varmint. Most average middle age Thais don't lean one way or the other, while the young are becoming much more liberal. Perhaps the OP missed the results in the most recent election.

 

I see the same clowns who gripe constantly about migrants 'taking over the culture' back home (US, UK righties) see no hypocrisy in their moving to Thailand, where they in no way assimilate (except thinking paying for local women for a schtupping and drinking Chang or Singha is assimilating).

 

Anyway, funny stuff there, OP.

So I scanned through the typical cluster of losers you expect when calling out liberals looking for someone who stands on their ideology, admits that there are inconsistencies/faults but actually attempts to reason why they still choose to reside or spend significant time in Thailand and sadly but not surprisingly I didn't find one. I did come across some posters who seem like decent people who didn't quite understand the characters I was directing my post at, I don't attack decent people, it's not in my style. 

 

OHHHH WAIT! I have just worked it out! These liberals have aided in turning places in Western countries into such unlivable messes that lack in joy that even they have escaped, but they can't stay in unruined areas in their own countries as they know they will be called out/possibly targeted so decide to hide in a society where they can masquerade as a reasonable stand up person. Makes sense now. However that's still not going to work. Lots of foreigners know what you're about and most Thai people are sharp, they will work you out. Could be a lonely life, that's too bad. At least you guys can still make thousands of posts a year on forums. A poor substitute for a life, but a substitute nonetheless.

It looks like you have successfully cancelled yet another actor. First George Clooney, now Robert DeNiro.  Wow, I am seriously out of touch with todays world, and how powerful this Cancel Culture thing is. BTW, Charlton Heston was a right winger & President of the NRA for many years. So that means I can't watch The Omega Man, or True Lies?!  What kind of world is this?

“He was great in The Irishman“

 

Pacino was much better in that movie and as an actor in general.  
 

Comparing Heston to DeNiro is like comparing apples to oranges.

 

Heston had class.  DiNero the whiner, none, zilch, nada.

What motivates you to this demented narcissism?

Calling out liberals?

 

This is a dying internet backwater with about 40 regular posters, mostly oldies with Thai wives or LT girlfriends.

 

Let your clarion call be heard!

The OP demands attention and is ready to settle all scores -on a baht bus.

[Walker88]

Scanning the responses here, it seems that average Thai is much smarter and much more perceptive than the average right winger in the West.

 

The far right in Thailand is the absolute elite, the monied-.1% who will support military coups because they keep the status quo where the elite still control the vast majority of the wealth. The average Thai knows the elite is purely out for themselves and couldn't care less about the common Thai.

 

In the West, the far right at the highest levels is equally self-serving, but the goobers are not smart enough to know they are just pawns. Tax cuts and other measures are aimed squarely at the Donor Class. Guys like the felon have a club few of his cult could afford to join, and he likes it that way, because he has nothing but contempt for the "losers" who are struggling financially. He just wants their vote. As he famously said, "I love the poorly educated". Yes, he loves them because he knows they are so gullible they will buy whatever false promise he tosses at them. He even got some of the dumbest of them to try to block certification of his election loss, and many are now in jail because they were so stupid. He also has an inherent understanding of their inferiority complex and lifelong mediocrity, so he gives them the "own the libs" meme, which for those losers is good enough (so long as he also tosses in a false promise like, "In two weeks we'll be releasing our unbelievable plan to...blah blah blah. Two weeks never comes).

 

Election demographics illustrate this in ways no thinking person can deny. The felon's supporters are largely as he wants them: poorly educated and on the lower end of the socio-economic ladder. The GDP statistics are so heavily skewed toward Blue areas that it verges on unbelievable (In 2016 Counties HRC carried produce per capita GDP at 9.25 times the level of Counties carried by the felon.) Thegoobers buy his lies because it allows them to believe the people who are better educated and more successful (i.e., the liberal left) are finally getting it at his hand. Of course they are not.

 

Since Biden took over, the US economy is booming, experiencing its strongest growth since the late 1990s under Clinton, and saw 27 straight months of unemployment below 4%, the first time that has happened since the 1960s. In order to participate and benefit, however, one must have skills and talents the marketplace wants and needs. The felon's cult is beefing and moaning, and claiming things are bad, not because the overall economy is bad---it is strong---but because they lack the marketable skills needed in the modern world.

 

The far right crazies now control the House in the US, that part of Congress where Bills should originate. Instead of legislating and doing what Congress is supposed to do, the (R) House members spend all them time either doing Performance Art (MTG, Gaetz, Comer, Jordan et al)or trying to find something/anything to get back at Biden. No legislation that could benefit the people is even considered. They purposely block a border Bill because they need migration as an issue. They even tried to stand in the way of the Infrastructure Bill that is rebuilding the US" bridges, roads, commo, airports, etc. (though the far right tries to take credit when they see benefits to their area).

 

Stay dumb, gullible and pliant, just as the elite far right wants. The cult can't even see who their own worst enemy is. The average Thai knows who is keeping him or her down. The average far right goober in the US isn't clever enough to see they are being used.

 

 

[Prubangboy]

He never had it so good living here, but he wants to be mad over nothing.

 

So call that about one in five here, basically amping themselves into a dimwit frenzy over trans and other BS. Just to amuse the likes of me. 

 

I keep asking them and they keep running comically away:

 

Do you even wear the funny red hat? Do you send him your beer money?

 

Or is this, crying and leg-humping here, your sole contribution to your idiot-cause?

 

Caveat: I gave the Democratic Party of NC $3,300 this year.

 

Retards, have you even tossed in dollar-one?

Some of the followers of the Master are so sensitive, that the smallest criticism seems to really set them off. Hard to be in that position, when your guy is such a buffoon.

I don't really care about the actors personal beliefs but DeNiro is pushing it. Some say Ton Cruise is an idiot, I don't care, I like his movies. 

"I don't really care about the actors personal beliefs but DeNiro is pushing it. Some say Ton Cruise is an idiot, I don't care, I like his movies."

if DeNiro was pushing it … but saying those same things about Biden & was a Trump supporter, you would have a problem with it?!!    Of course you would not. They call that hypocrisy and it is so common these days we do not even think of it. 

Beach lover, he enjoys nothing better than to howl about the ‘Woke Mob’ and the evil that they do, like “Cancel Culture.  Yet there he is, canceling people right & left, and proud of it. I doubt that it even enters his mind how hypocritical it all is.  Typical right wing mentality, BTW.

Only 2 actors that are outspoken about politics. Whoopi and Robert. Most of the others don't say much. Two most overrated actors ever who last did a good film 30 years ago. They both come across as barking mad.

If he was saying the same things about Biden he would be lying.   Logic 101  how did you do in that class?

Hypocrisy is a big thing here. Can't even count how many of these people I came across who go to all these green world events, who say they want to help poor people etc etc etc. While they then in reality, outside of these events, live a life that basically does the opposite and supports what causes the issues to exist in the first place.

 

Same with the type of people who change their Facebook profiles to french and ukranian flags, while they not even know the slightest of it. In terms of what you said, with getting citizenship on birth, as far I know there are not that many countries who do that, USA is one of them though. Mine for sure doesn't (Netherlands).

 

Last but not least, the fact that the west is a big mess, does not mean Thailand should just do  the same. In terms of what Thailand does, the opinion of other foreigners is not really relevant either, most of them speak double anyway, as they barely know a thing in detail themself. So what is your point on all that?

They are called pseudo intellectuals. Pretending to care about world events to impress people. Usually horrible people in person. They would step over a homeless person whilst saying online they are against injustices.
