June 14Jun 14 So I see a lot of people from the US, Australia and crap like that lashing out, somewhat like a child who was never grounded and unsure of themselves on a base level.We don't really see that so much from populations in Asia and Europe who even if they have been fed a bunch of BS propaganda, have a certain calmness and don't need to go on some 'spiritual' finding themselves tour and if they they travel it's more for a purpose, opportunity, cheaper living, with admittedly some currency exchange abuse going on if they come from more advantaged places.We can take it to the extreme of deracination where a certain group (being politically correct by the Western standard) in the US who think they wuz the original Egyptians, Romans, Vikings, British, Samurai etc etc. Whilst I took it to the extreme with highlighting one specific demographic, it seems to be an issue amongst others and why Thailand and other countries gatekeeping mass migration from occuring maybe is a good thing overall.
