Low IQ democracy

What about those birds at 4am.

And not to mention the roosters modified mufflers and over ventilated car mufflers. Heck if I wanted I can find as many things to complain about here as I can in my home town in the US of A, but as I never did there I have no reason to do so here. Some people just lack tolerance and/or lack the IQ to choose to live in an area that they can tolerate. There is an element of truth to the OP, the world is full of low IQ people, especially of those who believe that they are smarter than those around them.

I got ran out of a house which I really liked near the Mae Sa waterfall in Mae Rim because the temple would announce donation amounts as early as 5:30am (xxx donated xxx baht, repeated over and over again) and the village intercom would often go off in the 6am range proceeded by 10 minutes of crap distorted music. 

 

This behavior is malicious, he knew he had to get it out early before people left for work so listening to him was mandatory. 

 

I'm hyper paranoid after that. Before considering anywhere to live the intercom situation is the first thing I need to figure out.

A quick 5 minute excursion, armed with a ladder and a pair of side cutting pliers, in the early hours, sorted!

It was exactly the same in San Sai, 5.30 am, 6 am. They know no shame.

 

From now on I also check first thing if there are monastery speakers in the street.

Ah how cute, you think it doesn't happen back home 🤣

 

Never heard of people going door to door and offering cash for votes. Pretty sure you'd be reported immediately and it would be massive news in the campaign they couldn't recover from.

 

Like most of these "it happens back home too" remarks the scale and magnitude is being disregarded.

All villages have these so all you can do is hope to get lucky that they aren't being dicks about it and of course don't have the speaker right outside your door.

 

The one at my house in Samoeng is actually remarkably respectful in the morning and infrequent. The village near my wives work in Mae Jo is ok too and never on too early but it's far enough away. However her place of work actually blasts this theme song everyday at 7:45 or so in order to call in the workers who live in company supplied housing.

To whom are you referring? The USA?

 

This is about elections in Thailand of course, you would know if you were here at the moment because they don't let you ignore them.

I think most people here, and even in countries where they come from are very low IQ...just don't have an understanding ....very poor in their presentation
