@LukasYan15389@mayxrchv You don't get it. I've been in Thailand for 4 years. Thai people are very nationalistic and they don't see how their culture has been influenced by others. And they see that every other culture is beneath them. So yes we need to put them in their place
@Levanterhynjin@gayboyxv So how about the people who are Burmese? Because I've seen thousands of accounts saying they felt disrespected on Facebook and I've checked and nearly all of them are Burmese. Do they not matter? Your BL actors are worth more than their heritage?
@oud999_sk@KHAMCHANH By your logic, modern Italians are just local inhabitants of Rome, not descendants of the Romans, and modern Greeks have no connection to ancient Greece because their ancient states collapsed. Your argument confuses the fall of an empire with the disappearance of its people.
@oud999_sk@KHAMCHANH By your logic, any country that experienced a political collapse would have no legitimate connection to its own history. And I don't get your local inhabitant theory because...what?
@YTTYYT_@gayboyxv Do you believe that every tradition in Cambodia right now came from Thailand? And that every tradition Thailand has originally came from themselves?
@YTTYYT_@gayboyxv Influence over a certain period of time does not dictate an entire country's culture. You often talk about the influence of the Siamese Kingdom onto its neighbors after the 17th century. But nowhere is mentioned where those traditions originally came from.
@YTTYYT_@gayboyxv Do you understand what sampot is? Cambodia has many traditional clothings for many traditional occasions. Sampot is only one of them used for mostly pagoda relations. Royal courts and ceremonies aside from that use different attires.
@YTTYYT_@gayboyxv They said that due to the fact that there were cultural exchanges, they sent teachers from Cambodia to Thailand and Thailand to Cambodia causing an exchange of traditions. They also said that they stopped using Thai clothings long ago as stated in the video.
@YTTYYT_@gayboyxv And did you also see videos of the Thai scholars admitting that the Siamese royal courts also first got all those traditions from Khmer royal courts first? Not the 17th century. Your first royal courts. And the video is very clear, they said there was an admixture.
@kiwiluvsk555 Have you seen your fellow Indians still defending these people? How are you expecting a dignified response if you don't even give yourselves any semblance of dignity. I just saw an Indian person saying that India should be the last country to talk about racism and colorism
@Sa_Gu_Me@oud999_sk@KHAMCHANH That is one part of the equation that Thai people seem to not grasp. I've lived in Thailand for 4 years. I'm into history but every time I bring this up they say modern cambodians are not true cambodians and that Khom has no relations to modern day Khmer which just makes me laugh
@Sa_Gu_Me@oud999_sk@KHAMCHANH The Roman Empire reached modern-day France, yet Italy remains most directly connected to Roman civilization. The Mongol Empire stretched across Eurasia, yet Mongolia remains the homeland of the Mongol people. Likewise the same principle applies to modern day Cambodia
@Sa_Gu_Me@oud999_sk@KHAMCHANH You're nearly getting it. Good for you. Ancient empires and old kingdoms never correlate perfectly to modern people. But what the Thai person is saying is that modern cambodians are not connected to the ancient Khner which is wrong.
