what do mean with the example of thailand and thai food, and why is that a psy-op? Every country tries to subsidize and dump excess production of stuff they produce



not just Thai, the Japanese, Koreans, even Ethiopia (sometimes) tries food based influence measures


wow, did'nt know. but thats brilliant!

however, i did wonder at the decor at my local thai restaurants and they were definitely using some ethnic pieces, and now I realize...


They invented what is called "Thai food" for the export market, to bring in tourists.
