Pinga Posted March 14, 2023 #291515 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Wait, so she gets by with a wai and 22,000 baht? This woman belongs in either jail or a mental institution. So what's the lesson she learned from this incident? keep on being a violent child - can just pay if someone presses charges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramanathan.P Posted March 14, 2023 #291553 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Since she has mental issues, it is advisable to cancel her driving permit and get her admitted to any mental hospital for treatment. And also have to inform her followers in Thai net that she is a mentally disturbed person so that her followers also will not be mentally disturbed.

"Mental issues" is a superset of "mental disorders". According to (*), 1 in 8 people in the world has a mental issue that qualifies as a disorder, so an even bigger proportion has a mental issue. Assuming that statistic is roughly true and carries over to Thailand, and also re-using your lack of any nuance, about a million Thai should be institutionalized and their identities should be broadcast -- as soon as something happens (and perhaps not even that), according to your reasoning. To me, that style of reasoning has many hallmarks of being the result of "mental issues" (and the statistic to which is referred doesn't even play a role in that). Now, you could (and should) argue that your post has a context, and that it should be understood to be about attacking a victim for apparently no good reason. But even in that case, "having a mental issue" (which is extremely general) plays a subordinate role at best; using it as a starting point to advice some non-sequiturs makes no sense.

(*) https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/mental-disorders All humans have mental issues of one kind or another, that is, the human condition is one of a delicate balance between sociability and unreasonableness and it often goes awry. We are a uniquely savage species, prone to violence against each other, unspeakable cruelty to our own and other species, massive idiocy and a selfish disregard for others and for the Earth we live on. Nothing surprises me anymore in terms of what humans can get up to to. Very little can be described as 'normal behavior'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vigo Posted March 14, 2023 #291609 Share Posted March 14, 2023 In this case, I think the culprit is using "mental illness" as an exculpatory reason for a nasty tantrum. She knew what she was doing. She got off easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
