Ukraine ... Enlighten yourself
Nothing more than pedantry, as replacing 'EU' with 'EEC' has absolutely no effect on my argument. However, if it makes you happy: You're right. The EU did not exist in 1991, so I should have stated, " ...would West Germany's allies in the EEC ... The article was linked to on page 2 of this thread and I replied to it there. I'm surprised that you didn't notice that. -

Trump Goes Full Racist
Biden supporters are even more stupid as they believe Biden isn’t a racist. Google search will reveal it all. I’ve proven it already. But the stupidest one of them all believes Election Day is December 5th. A vote for Harris confirms their stupidity. -

Is this legal? No farangs welcome...
He can't anyway. 🤣 I don't think it's because they hate foreigners. Probably either: a) they don't speak English b) they don't want the hassle of doing all the necessary immigration stuff c) they have no recourse if a foreigner trashes the place and leaves the country or leaves without paying his bills.- 1

Ukraine ... Enlighten yourself
You are perfectly entitled to your opinion, but to imply that those who share that opinion, " ... can look at reality and judge it on its merits ... (while those who hold to an alternative viewpoint) .... have to invent a wholly imaginary narrative", is imo diametrically opposite to the truth. -

Thai Baht weakens as government pushes for lower rates
The Thai baht has started to lose value this month, leading to speculation that its recent rally could be losing momentum. This comes as conflict increases between Thailand's government and its central bank. In October, the Baht weakened 2.7% against the US dollar. This came after it had its best quarter since the Asian Financial Crisis. Mizuho Bank predicts that by the end of the year, the baht could slide to 33.6 per dollar. Increased pressure from upcoming Bank of Thailand and Federal Reserve policy meets might negatively influence the Baht. By Friday, the currency had dropped to 33.2. Thailand's government is planning to increase the inflation target next year. This could give them more leverage in their push for lower borrowing costs. Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin has been publicly urging the Bank of Thailand (BoT) to reduce rates to stimulate growth. This has been making investors nervous, causing the baht to depreciate further. Despite this pressure, the central bank is expected to keep its rate at 2.5% this week, resisting requests to ease and insisting on making its own decisions free from government interference. Investors have sold a total of $1.178 billion from Thailand's stock and bond market this month. This move by the government for a higher inflation target of 1.5%-3.5% for 2025 has led to a negative shift in sentiment towards the currency. As the local tourism season approaches its peak months, pressure on the baht could begin easing. Local stimulus measures, like cash handouts, expected to boost economic growth, limit the harm of a slower pace in Federal Reserve rate cuts. Lloyd Chan, a currency strategist at Mufg Bank, anticipates the baht to reach 32.5 per dollar by the end of 2024. However, market concerns remain over the potential erosion of the independence of Thailand's central bank due to government interference. File photo for reference only -- 2024-10-14 -

DeSantis Pushes Back on Climate Change’s Role in Stronger Storms
Intellectually vacuous? No. But to teach someone they have to accept that they don't understand a concept. In your case, it's rate of change. Climate change was happening very slowly over most of the last 2 millennia. Then it sped up. You don't seem to grasp the significance of that fact. -
