Living in Thailand
The smartest thing you can do is keep your home in England, so you can return if things aren't to your liking here. Whole different way of life and not for everyone. Seeing you already have a Thai wife, you should know about some of the customs here but to really know them you have to live here awhile, so renting is an option you might consider. Stay out of the big cities and tourist areas, especially for living,and you won't encounter most of the problems. Driving is dangerous everywhere so don't trust anyone on the roads and drive defensively. -

Why do people still deny the Holocaust ever happened
All of the above. I’ve generally encountered this as a combination of antisemitism (irrational hatred of Jewish people) and a penchant for conspiracy theories (Jewish people systematically invented or exaggerated the Holocaust to gain political advantage). One of my favorites was a fellow who resorted to semantic trickery, saying that those Jews who died (not as many as history claims of course) were “killed” and not “murdered” during the war, turning it into a fog-of-war scenario. He was quite proud of himself at this neat solution that absolved the Nazis of any major wrongdoing. The Turks used (and often still use) a similar strategy in responding to the fact of their wholesale massacre of Armenians toward the end of the First World War. -

This is a good reason to not give them an inch ........ they always want more. And if I'm out on a date, I want to have advance warning of the equipment they're potentially bringing to the party.
