My conclusion is something that I think we can all agree on - prejudice and intolerance between all manner of groups for all manner of reasons exists in all countries and all societies worldwide, always has, and sadly probably always will. The challenge is to educate and inform at all levels - not leave it to teachers, or blame parents for example - a general human duty to challenge genuine bigotry whenever it arises. An example of this could be the question that Ruck posed - why do you always reserve your sharpest and most spontaneous criticism for C7. The fact that Scousemark identified your conduct as trolling (and he isn't the only one) should serve as a wake-up call to you to look long and hard at your own attitude and approach. There is perhaps a natural tendency among those of your inclination to assume that there are two ways of understanding something - your way, and the wrong way. An example of this is your brash and ignorant statement this morning that 'there is no anti-Semitism in Thailand.' Are you actually so narrow-minded and naïve as to believe this? Or is it a spontaneous reaction to anything you disagree with? I appreciate you choose to live in a country where freedom is restricted and information less available than it should be, but your approach does you no favours and portrays you in a poor light. What happened to the small but significant acronym 'IMO'? It would make your posts a little credible if you had the humility to add such a label, as opposed to casting aspersions on C7's integrity at every opportunity with bullying and domineering blandishments that frankly the rest of the board seem to think have gone on for far too long.
Thanks RW and your conclusion is ?
Oh well, similar!
LOL .. thought it was a tree tap root that broke the kitchen floor ... it turned out to be, a missing expansion joint.

well i still have a holding 25km south of Hui Hin at the edge of the national park , so its not as if i don't have experience .. however lock down now .. CronoVirus
Yeah, good post, I once spent a week studying Buddhism down in Hua Hin, and I still have my Big Budha on my computer for TICK UPS, lol.
I was replying to Rats link ..
I wasn"t discussing anti -semitism at all, I have been there enough to gauge that, it was more the country amd politics in general.
Because Buddhism does not include the idea of worshipping a creator god, some people do not see it as a religion in the normal, Western sense. The basic tenets of Buddhist teaching are straightforward and practical: nothing is fixed or permanent; actions have consequences; change is possible. So Buddhism addresses itself to all people irrespective of race, nationality, caste, sexuality, or gender. It teaches practical methods which enable people to realise and use its teachings in order to transform their experience, to be fully responsible for their lives.
easy way . Go to a National Newspaper and search for incidents

I agree with that Inanaco, probably the most peaceful race of people I have lived amongst. You would know better than me, but has it changed sinced the king died?
C7 the average Thai would not know that Israel even existed .. it would just wash over them.
Inanaco, there is no such thing as no anti-semetism, there is no such thing as no persecution, just ask minority groups in any civilisation.
I believe TF lived and worked in Nigeria..................https://mosaicmagazine.com/picks/jewish-world/2019/08/the-fast-growing-jewish-population-of-nigeria-is-now-at-risk/
