Racism is rife and alive and well in Thailand what is he talking about ? From double priced attractions and police officers who see you as a chance to make a baht, let alone the property ownership rights and the list goes on, either accept it and use the opportunity of the country or leave I don’t see it changing soon.

Let's not forget the Thai health Minister who just stated today that Thai people will only get the vaccine first before any forigner gets it.

If anyone has an issue with a post or comment then feel free to report it and one of the mods will check it out. We’re not in the habit of deleting comments or turning off commenting, but if there is something blatantly offensive we will consider removing it. If someone says something that offends you personally but seems innocuous to others we will leave it in place.

As a community I think it's important that everyone be aware when someone threatens our community and accuses it of wrong doing.

I'll admit I haven't had much time the last few weeks to be in here much, but I haven't seen anything off the charts here.

Almost all Americans have European ancestors. The US is not really a country. They are just a bunch of emigrants from Europe who couldn't make a living at home in Europe.

You know why these emigrants went to the US? It's not so different as the UK who sent their criminals to Australia. The ones going to the US were mainly the ones who couldn't make it in Europe. If you were homeless, were not able to find a job, your life was full of shit and you saw no chance to solve it, only then you escaped to the US.

you’re either joking or completely ignorant of USA history. People went to America to find more freedom and opportunity than they had in Europe. Unfortunately, the Marxists and “woke” mobs of today are destroying those freedoms.

It's a pity that most US people have completely no clue about history. In the times we are talking about now life was not about modern values as freedom. Life was about surviving. Life was about getting food for today, about trying to keep a job, it was about not starving to death. Nobody was thinking about freedom. Freedom is a modern buzz word.

I disagree. Freedom has been a value since at least the agricultural revolution. Many people went to the New World to escape religious oppression. They wanted the freedom to worship as they wished among other things.

"The largest reason for immigration, however, was poverty. People left their home countries, where they had low wages and poor living conditions" The ones who escaped were the once who were poor, the ones who owned nothing, the people who couldn't make it. They were the underprivileged, the bottom of society.

it’s funny that the descendants of these people who “couldn’t make it” invented most of the modern conveniences that the world uses. The electric lightbulb, the telephone, the Internet, airplanes, production automobiles, etc. etc..

"to find more freedom" 😂😂😂 That is what people say who want to make their past more glorious. Fact is that people who had a future in Europe had no reason to leave.
