Yes.....traditional values. The deepest nepotism, corruption, criminal endeavors, manipulating the courts and election systems and wide range of other assorted skullduggery. Tradition of the ruling classes.

Rather odd how that works, huh...

Yep. All perfectly reasoned. And....obviously, some can't find the logic. Instead, justify most everything with their blind obsessions.

More of a curious note might be if any of these jokers will be prosecuted for their devious activities over the recent years. I'm guessing not. It'll be approached as mai phen rai water under the bridge. .....and the core ground will in wait for the next opportunity. Because they can.

But you're still not sure of what criminal activity. And......turn a blind eye the current [and decades long] military/loyalist rulers who are clearly corrupted criminals in their own right, by their very nature. Whataboutism gone wild.

You might be surprised as to the number of forced/voluntary exiles that have had to flee because of suspected or made up charges and accusations, as Thailand has a long and colourful history of such activities. Perhaps these bogus scenarios might apply to the Shinawatras as well.....or not. Classic psychological propaganda might be the twisted culprit - something that is repeated often and loud enough, naturally it all becomes real and true.

I believe most are thinking that anything would be an improvement at this stage of the game.

You'll be waiting a long time for such an event [mass revolution] to come about. Thais aren't truly that everyday repressed, as they really have no reason to rebel.

Perhaps he doesn't care for Farang. Rightly so.

Exactly. Pot...kettle...black and these things. All of the said charges tend to contradict themselves in falsehoods.

Sure. They always hold a card or two up their sleeve for these occasional instances. Tradition.

Oriental Barbarians....

Actually, the establishment has controlled and managed the MSN forever here. With that in place, over the years there has been a broad variety of independent/alternative sources [mostly IT] available that the ruling oligarchy can't dispose their will upon......though they have tried with failed efforts.

Hopes springs eternal

Always trust Farang. They have the most knowledgeable insight on everything and anything. Blessed..... ????????????

I might correct you [and most others] regarding your take on 1932 events [military/civilian coup] and the false history presented. Definitely, had nothing whatsoever to do with creating a democratic state - just an exchange in repressive regimes. Do some real investigative and objective research on the subject matter. This ever-repeated dreamy domain of the beloved and bookmarked 1932 is most amusing to observe.

Though, not to be outdone, the U.S. is the overwhelming champion of highly deluded and fanciful economies - and more than in trouble with more and more countries abandoning their ship. BRICS [and associations] is just the tipping point.

The only poll that might matter or to be consider will be on the 14th....

All of a sudden such random and highly selected instances make it an issue. These undocumented foreign [regional] workers have been integrated into the Thai workforce forever......without incident.

Or...another claimed influential entity. Clandestine birds of a feather.

.....as they're all presently controlled and managed by the same highly illegal Junta gang - so makes sense that they wouldn't be eating their own. Imagine the possibilities of a solid opposition majority that might see it fit to pursue criminal charges towards the illustrious and criminally organized coup makers/Junta. Though, in our hearts we all know that would never come about. Which should really shed some light on the truer nature of the "opposition" coalitions.

A more realistic reflection of the AN membership and regular participants.

Might add Chinese....

Seconded and thirded.....!! ????

Indeed. Might be anyone's guess as to which one is the most crooked.....
