Summary
Blanca Ojanguren, a 22-year-old Spanish tourist, was fatally attacked by an elephant at the Koh Yao Elephant Care sanctuary in Thailand while bathing the animal.
She was struck by its tusk, resulting in fatal injuries.
This tragedy highlights the risks of popular recreational activities involving elephants in Thailand.
It follows a recent fatal attack by a wild elephant on a Thai woman and adds to the 39 elephant-related deaths reported in 2024.
So a person born poor, middle class, rich or otherwise, in a wealthy country, but by virtue of being born in a wealth country richer than 7 billion other people, is the problem because they are greedy? Or how am I supposed to understand this?
If you don’t want to understand something, you won’t understand it.
The fact remains that a vacation to Thailand is prohibitively expensive for the vast majority of people.
You just don’t want to acknowledge how you live in a world of privilege at the expense of those who don’t.
It’s okay, I see it all the time and I don’t expect any more of you at this point.
“I can’t express my point logically and will just assume the other is at fault.” or alternatively *makes a bad point, won’t elaborate, says collocutor is wrong, leaves, thinks they “won” the debate*
Great “talking” to you. I’m sure you’ll be able to help people see the presumed error in their ways with your excellent rhetoric.
