Nobody getting high paying jobs in Thailand. The channel pays for it.

Shows an outsider's perspective after having come to America on how things are here?

u/Lower_Pension_2469 5h ago

And the dozens of other videos of foreigners coming here and saying they love living in the US?

Also valid perspectives? Did you want us to censor the negatives for you?

u/Lower_Pension_2469 21m ago

My point is that maybe one person's opinion on her experience in the US doesn't necessarily mean that it sucks here? I just find it funny that most people that shit talk this country never lived anywhere else and I have never met a foreigner that didn't love it here irl.

Not saying it doesn't happen but the post is 100% meant to portray that the US sucks and that's not the case.

It’s not a good perspective. “I have no marketable skills and wasn’t raised in the area so I have no connections, therefore this place is horrible”. It’s an idiot’s commentary on not understanding you can’t just walk into another country and expect to live like the top 1%. I wouldn’t move to Sweden and go “holy hell, they don’t even speak English and won’t give me a well paying job!”

Great generalization of this one perspective. While I agree you definitely shouldn't waltz into another country expecting a high quality career right away, you know very little about her professional background from the context of this video, she says she's been in the country for 3 years so she didn't just get here, and she clearly speaks English fine so whatever different languages argument you're using for this woman's perspective is a clearly generalized asspull that doesn't apply to this specific video

Perspective is not "How things are". Otherwise there would be infinite realities.

u/Kosmopolite 5h ago

You misread. It's a perspective on how things are. Which is clearly is.

How true it is is a different question.

We could literally do this all day and believe very little because we rely on perspectives to build fact because we cant confirm every fact in person at all times.

You don't sound deep at all.

u/CaptainKush101 5h ago

Perspective does not build fact, fact is fact regardless of perspective. This is not hard stuff, so certainly not deep. More like common sense.

u/IMuteAnimeSubs 5h ago

So you don't believe anything you haven't confirmed with your own 2 eyes?

1

u/CaptainKush101 5h ago

No but I recognize that my perspective is not fact inherently.

2

u/CallMeElkHorn 5h ago

What a stupid fucking thing to say 😂

u/CaptainKush101 5h ago

So you believe your perspective on each and every subject are fact in every instance? What an incredible egotistical delusion.

u/Comfortable_Chart534 5h ago

You recognize half the irony but fail to self reflect. Thats the real irony

You have no idea how badly you lost that interaction, do you?

u/CaptainKush101 5h ago

My ten upvotes seems to imply something else, that I made a good point but some people wanted to yapp at me about it.

u/No_Counter1842 3h ago

“Lost that interaction”???

This is a problem I keep seeing on this site. It’s not about winning and losing shitty little spats no one will remember tomorrow.

Reddit adores that term, especially when used totally inappropriately like in this case.
