Survey: Are foreigners in Thailand more negative than people in their home country?

[thesetat2013]

If Thailand is such a rut that the T.V members who post such negative stuff, continue to suffer here, <deleted> are they dong in Thailand!!! We have choices. ( Perhaps they don't hence rotting here)

Did you ever consider that perhaps they use this forum just to vent some of their frustration at things that they have no say in and have no chance at changing? Or that they are happy here but would like to be happier? When I read others post I don't label them as you have done. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and they have their own, perhaps misunderstood, reasons for what was said.

Nowhere and nobody in this world is perfect and fault can be found everywhere. Some people accept all of the Thai way and others accept only parts that they believe in. Does that make them negative towards Thailand or make them want to leave? I think not. This happens in every country and I am certain they havery both good and bad to day about their own respective countries prior to living here. If you are a foreigner in Thailand, why would you ask such a question and start this topic? Surely you have said some negative things related to Thailand or thai people.

I voted no, no more than normal, I base this on friends and acquaintances. If I was to base it on this forum it would be a resounding YES more negative. I can honestly say I have never read so much negativity twds ones host as is dislayed on here. But that's what happens on public anonymous forum as there is no come back on any one save for the forums own rules.

I agree with a lot on here most are just venting their spline. As they can't or won't do it in public. I suspect if people on here met in public they would be quite posative about Thailand. Not that we will ever know each other. I suspect posts back will say diffrent "I'm the same in public as I am on here". Easy to say but we will never know will we.

Western people dislike everyone including each other. Money, hatred, greed and power are cornerstones of their "mentality".

Seems to me, many expats move here because it is different from their home country.
Then they end up complaining about those differences after a while.
Go figure.
