rubl Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 (edited) Cmon rubl, your english is better than that, but if you just want to make things up out of my post, carry on but don't forget this thread is about remove the democrats reds told...................... I'm trying to stick to the topic and I asked you all to put your mind on 'democratically eradicating a political opponent'. As for 'make things up out of my post', I certainly would never presume I could or should even try to beat a master at his game edit: add: how does one progress from 'english better than that' to 'but if you want to make things up'? I was alluding to your knowledge of the english language was better than what you were trying to portray in your deliberate misreading of my post. So, you accuse me of 'deliberate misreading' aka "I'm right, you're wrong'. Well with this topic of 'eradicating democracy' , such a remark fits., IMHO and only when gracefully granted permission. Just for the fun of it, a nice Monty Python clip before I'm off to watch another match with the Orange players forgetting to score.

Thaddeus Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Cmon rubl, your english is better than that, .............. Correcting English, the last bastion..... well done. Oh Thaddeus, if you only read and quote half of the post you will get less than half of its meaning - see above for my explanation to rubl, it may help avoid further kneejerk posts. And your answer to correcting the English of a non native speaker is what, precisely ? It is the last bastion of a player who comes second in a field of two.

Yunla Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 honestly, the amount of hyperbolic crap in that statement astounds me. Have you got some kind of 'pay-for-each-word-you-type' deal going with your ISP or do you have genuinely nothing to say. Either way I really enjoyed your eleven word response to my post, complete with swear words and absent capitals.

'absent capitals' .. it's not that i'm incapable of using the caps lock button, hard as it is, i choose not to. i was pointing out that you're too far gone in your bias. you only see the wrongs on one side and to me that's riiiiidiculous. and with the type of language i've seen you use - ie 'red peasant'.... i know the place where you're coming from and i don't like it. and i therefore feel that trying to reasonably debate anything with you is an exercise in futility. ps: i'm happy that you feel wiser about the stuff you post and... your welcome.

animatic Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 (edited) It's amazing how people have a short memory. The junta was quite aware that a democratic election will return Thaksin in power, so they wrote a new constitution that will limit the power of the new government and make sure that the army will firmly stay in charge of the country. That was made very clear, candidly presented as a way to avoid the return of Thaksin. And people were clearly informed that if they don't accept the new constitution, there wouldn't be any democratic election in the foreseeable future. Unfortunately at that time there was no organized citizen movement to stop a minority of thugs to derail democracy in Thailand. That's why we now have the "reds", to send a clear message to the PAD that this time it won't be as easy as in 2006 and 2008. All the current red's sabre rattling is a reminder for the PAD to stay within the limit of the law or there will be consequences. Nor a organized citizens group sufficient enough to stop a large clan of thugs from stealing the government coffers bare, and foisting a national scale con job on the people in the name of one mans ego. Don't for a moment imagine this is about democracy vs feudalism. It is capitalistic feudalism with a fascist backbone hiding behind pseudo-socialism, to take power from older feudalists, who at least make attempts at social progress. Faux progress to mask avarice as a route to power, is not progress. Edited June 18, 2012 by animatic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yunla Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 (edited) and with the type of language i've seen you use - ie 'red peasant'.... i know the place where you're coming from and i don't like it. Actually I used a phrase called "red peasant revolution" to describe communist Mao revolution. Red peasant revolution is the most commonly used phrase for this event in sociology. They also had a "Peasant's Red Army". They were proud of their peasant roots. It says a lot more about your biased and aggressive cherrypicking style of foruming that you pick out the two words red peasant from the whole phrase and try to use it in your bitter crusade against me. For your information, I am peasant in every way, single-parent family, half-cast ancestry, grew up in UK in bedsits in the north of England in absolute poverty 1970s-90s crimeland. I am truly as working class peasant as it gets. And for that reason I am disgusted by your implication that me using a sociological phrase to describe red peasant revolution is somehow my prejudice for the very socialclass I was born and raised in. Infact it is my utter hatred for the billionaire megalomaniac Thaksin 'dangerous fleeing criminal' Shinawatra and the way he used poor rural people as disposable toy-soldiers in his evil armed uprising that makes me compare him to Mao. You pick cherries and you work so hard to twist them into bitter fruit so you can feel superior. That is your problem and not mine. My original point which you flamed with a discourteous non-response, actually was saying that I find the similarities between Thaksin and Mao very obvious and blood-chilling, and the latest announcement in this thread to "remove the [Opposition] Democrats" is exactly the type of totalitarian one-party and one-chairman rule that Mao installed before he got busy killing 100 million people, most of which were the poor farmers involved in his red peasant revolution. For another fact, I have very good Chinese friends from childhood onwards, my sister is engaged to a lovely Chinese man in UK, I have nothing but respect for Chinese people in general. But if any of my Chinese friends started putting up red posters of their own face all around the house and wearing red t-shirts with their own face on it, and telling me they were above the law etc. I would seriously compare them to Mao and un-friend them on facebook too.

OzMick Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Please inform us the changes to the previous constitution that you find objectionable. IMHO there are none except the coup amnesty clause, and the only objection is to the proposers rather than the document itself. Which makes the argument that the proposers were bad because of the document circular, invalid and weaker than fizzy drink. Well said Mick, no need to fuss about a little amnesty clause........ So lets get the current constitutional bill passed passed, after all the amnesty clause for some silly reason appears to be the only major obstacle..... So that's it for you as well? The only problem with the 2006 constitution is the amnesty clause? It seems you think the 2 amnesties are equivalent - one for the peaceful removal of a corrupt government, the other for a violent insurrection that lead to the death of 90+ people and mass arson.
