Wow! You just demonstrated that you don't understand "freedom of speech" at all. 😁 I'll explain this again: You cannot define or restrict the "rights" that members have on these forums. If you don't like the viewpoints of other members, just don't read them. Isn't that simple? 😘

This is great news for those of us who love to see manly men sporting manly beards -- on their faces, rather than walking beside them!

Don't forget that young Russian men have been leaving the Motherland to avoid conscription into the forces invading and occupying Ukraine. The occupation has also caused young Ukrainian men to seek "greener" $$ pastures as long as the war and occupation continue.

No, the topics/threads on these forums do NOT have "admins" or managers. In the world of internet forums, they are simply called the original poster (OP). 🤣 🤡 They have no control over the content in their threads. If they give warnings (or even wornings 😊 ), those are totally meaningless. Members are free to comment and respond in any way they like. This is not Russia! 🤖

We're not talking about Drumpf. This was the George W. Bush administration, which was staffed with at least a few very competent people and which still had very competent civil servants in the relevant executive agencies. They deliberately ignored the warnings. And don't get me started on Rudy Giuliani in New York City. He and his henchman decided to put their "Office of Emergency Management" HQ at the World Trade Center itself. The NY Fire Department under Rudy's administration had a faulty radio communications system. Radios were not even working for fire responders inside the World Trade Center. And Rudy ignored the many issues of air quality and protective equipment during the cleanup efforts: "The air quality is safe and acceptable." These guys clearly didn't want to govern to benefit the general citizenry. They wanted to enrich their pockets.

The problem was PRECISELY connecting the dots. And the problem was PRECISELY following through on clear, written warnings prepared specifically by the Clinton administration for the incoming Dubya Bush administration. It was the Bush administration that failed to take the warnings seriously -- or else they were simply ignored and unread.

This was clearly not one of the respected programs like Fulbright, which sends only very qualified and vetted English teachers abroad. It was also probably not the Department of State. Maybe it was an NGO or even a (sketchy) private enterprise that sent her, especially some religious organization during the Bush or Trump years?

So you think it's fake? Read this article: ... Balinese authorities this week called for the end to Indonesia’s visa-on-arrival policy for citizens of Russia and Ukraine, citing a spate of alleged incidents involving misbehavior and various examples of visitors overstaying their visas and working illegally as hairdressers, unauthorized tour guides and taxi drivers. The move has been met with dismay by many Ukrainians on the island, who say that most of the incidents involve Russians and that they are being unfairly tarred with the same brush. “Whenever we get reports about a foreigner behaving badly, it’s almost always Russian,” a local police officer in the town of Kuta told CNN, declining to be identified due to sensitivities surrounding the issue.... And read this article: ... The once-welcoming Balinese people have had enough. Confronted with a barrage of complaints, the governor of Bali, Wayan Koster, announced earlier this month that he asked the Indonesian government to revoke Russia’s and Ukraine’s access to the country’s visa-on-arrival program. He said many of those who have flocked to Bali to avoid the war have not only violated a number of local laws but have been illegally seeking jobs while on short-term tourist visas. (Obtaining a visa on arrival is usually instantaneous, requiring a $33 fee and no paperwork.)

But you haven't told us what hobbies you've actually pursued -- and enjoyed -- in your life. Can't you continue them in Thailand?

Bamboo Airways last month appointed former executive of Pacific Airlines and Air Mekong Luong Hoai Nam as its new CEO, the third in five months. The carrier has been going through major leadership changes ever since its chairman Trinh Van Quyet was arrested in March last year for stock market manipulation and fraud.

Not a very good sign! 🙄

And yet you're too cowardly to click links to actual statistics and verified facts. You still haven't admitted WHY you don't want to click those links. Scared? 🐔🤣🐔

Since the pandemic and the criminal invasion of Ukraine, Russians have started to take over the island of Bali in Indonesia. Their business and developments have destroyed local businesses. And they even want to destroy rice fields to build unnecessary new developments. The Russians are HATED in Bali. I imagine it's the same in Thailand.

Thanks for surrendering in the face of numerous verified statistics that Galant cited in that article. They're from sources such as your trusted New York Times, Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, and other major media. The fact that you steadfastly refuse to open those clearly marked links demonstrates your cowardice. 🐔🐔🐔 You didn't have the slightest chance of proving that those statistics were wrong. So you conveniently take the right-wing troll's way out by writing "Case closed"! 🤖 🤡 Nothing in Galant's background is relevant. His cited sources and facts are what matter in this case. And you cannot prove them wrong, can you? If you can, why don't you try. You'd love nothing better than to show they're wrong. here are some of them: Trump inherited Obama's drone war and he significantly expanded it in countries where the US was not technically at war. The US dropped more bombs on Afghanistan in 2019 than any other year since the Pentagon began keeping a tally in 2006, reflecting an apparent effort to force concessions from the Taliban at the negotiating table. According to new figures released by US central command, US warplanes dropped 7,423 bombs and other munitions on Afghanistan, a nearly eightfold increase from 2015. From the last year of the Obama administration to the last full year of recorded data during the Trump administration, the number of civilians killed by U.S.-led airstrikes in Afghanistan increased by 330 percent. Trump’s campaign talk of troop withdrawals doesn’t mMatch military reality. He has brought home few American combat troops over all even as his pressure campaign against Iran risks a new Middle East conflict.

Thanks for finally admitting that you simply do not understand what source citations are. The article has MANY verified statistics from a wide variety of sources. You're just too stubborn to click the links and read those sources. Tell me: Did you click any of the links in that article? If you were afraid to click them, I understand. Your fragile ego wouldn't have liked reading them because they prove that your claims are completely false. I'll just continue poking you with those links -- whether you want to click them or not! 🤡🤣🤡

Have you not developed any passions or hobbies in your long life? Is going to the gym the only activity you've pursued outside of work? Living in a foreign country has much to offer. You can volunteer. You can mentor or teach (English) either informally or formally. And, as the previous commenter suggested, you do need to learn to speak and read Thai. This is a must -- it will give you both satisfaction and some definite goals. Please stay OUT of the business world!

Fly Lion Air? Never. In any country. With its notorious safety history, LionAir should be avoided at all costs.

HINT: In online text, underlining (underscoring) indicates a reference link to the specific evidence. I'm embarrassed for you. You don't even know this most significant feature of the internet. 🤣

There are sourced links throughout the article. And Afghanistan (it is indeed a "country") is specifically referenced. How could you not know that? I just told you. 🙄 REPEAT I asked you specifically about Afghanistan. Can you prove that the following statements are incorrect? The US dropped more bombs on Afghanistan in 2019 than any other year since the Pentagon began keeping a tally in 2006, reflecting an apparent effort to force concessions from the Taliban at the negotiating table. According to new figures released by US central command, US warplanes dropped 7,423 bombs and other munitions on Afghanistan, a nearly eightfold increase from 2015.

Please prove that any one of the factual statements is false. Did you not go to the linked evidence, which is VERY specific? Just as an example, can you prove that the following facts are false? The US dropped more bombs on Afghanistan in 2019 than any other year since the Pentagon began keeping a tally in 2006, reflecting an apparent effort to force concessions from the Taliban at the negotiating table. According to new figures released by US central command, US warplanes dropped 7,423 bombs and other munitions on Afghanistan, a nearly eightfold increase from 2015.

The Center Theatre Group hasn't closed shop at all. Tha't's just BS. What are you talking about? 💩 There are two productions currently playing onstage, with two more opening in the next 10 days.

Why would I deny facts? I never did deny that. But Drumpf was a warmonger. He escalated existing wars and military actions. He brought the US perilously close to new wars. And he didn't try to end some of the "endless" wars. https://responsiblestatecraft.org/2021/01/20/trump-the-anti-war-president-was-always-a-myth/ ... Trump did escalate conflict in theatres of war he inherited, repeatedly brought the country to the brink of new wars, and recklessly threw around U.S. power with no regard for the many lives it would cost. The “anti-war” candidate, like those before him, was a pro-war president. Escalating Inherited Wars — Despite repeated PR stunts, Trump did not “bring the troops home” or “end endless wars.” In fact, Trump consistently added fuel to the fire, increasing troop levels, deepening reliance on private contractors, and dramatically scaling up aerial warfare. Where an end to endless war requires repealing the 2001 and 2002 Authorizations for Use of Military Force, Trump expanded conflicts under both. His term saw four consecutive years of growth of an already out-of-control Pentagon budget. And loosening even the minimal restrictions that were already in place, he expanded the United States’ deadly and unaccountable drone wars. Not only did Trump not end the wars he promised to, he worsened them, dropping more bombs, stoking further conflict, undermining the prospects of peace, and massively increasing the rate of civilian deaths. All in on Yemen — U.S. support for the Saudi- and UAE-led intervention in the war in Yemen is one of the most egregious examples of destructive militarist foreign policymaking in years. Not only did Trump do nothing to end U.S. complicity himself, he repeatedly used his veto power to override bipartisan majorities in Congress that tried to stop U.S. military involvement and block the flow of arms to the conflict....

Quite a turn of phrase! 🤡
