I didn't think it would be an issue.

Yeah, let's portray our children painting and applauding Hitler.

This is so astonishingly ignorant it is beyond belief. He could have offended his own people at the drop of a hat. Could have put any image there and offended no one.

But no,let's pick Hitler? What is wrong with these people. I mean out Micky Mouse in there and applaud. But no, Hitler is the preferred image. Scary ignorant people.

But Walt Disney was a Nazi sympathiser.

Crack Down on the Untermenschen

I know A LOT of Jewish people here who are NOT going to take his lightly.....

Just wondering. Did you watch the film? Do you speak Thai?

It wasn't ignorance. It was a calculated attempt to get attention.

I know A LOT of Jewish people here who are NOT going to take his lightly.....

And what exactly will they do, you think ?

This is why Thailand urgently needs a decent educational system

...........but as they say...........ignorance is bliss!

Who was the kid painting the picture A. Spoiled brat. B. Normal Thai kid. C Hero of the film. D. Bad kid in the film?

Asked a young student once "How much gancha do you smoke each week?"

To which he profusely went on about how he did not, never had, did not like etc etc

So then I asked "why do you have a cannabis leaf on the front of your T-shirt?"

Gulp. Look down whilst pulling front of T-shirt into view.... "Really??"

True story :-)

The Mossad has quite a base in Bangkok, these guys are properly trained intelligence agents and this is not the type of thing they let ignore.

If they are intelligent, intelligence agents do you think they would watch the video or just read Thai Visa. If they actually watch the video I think we are OK.

May be he's just trying to piss off farangs

Funny how Thai people fail to understand Hitler's master ace plan, and that if he had one, eventually, all Asian would have been killed as sub-human...

I dont know they are pretty sensitive and rightly so when it come to that man

Whatever the intentions of the movie its insensitive and crass at best surely to use Hitler

So it's OK for us falang to promote videos about THAKSIN as long as they're a morality tale? No, it's not, because according to Uncle Pruyuth he must be removed from the history books entirely, and yet is Thaksin even on the same level as Hitler and all he represents? Of course not.

This is a pathetic use of one of humanity's worst monsters for the shallow benefits of glorifying Uncle Fester.

No pathetic excuses by the arrogant Thais for their lack of respect for others.

Let me remind you:

Disgusting Thailand.

There is nothing, 0, nada, zip, about Thaksin in the video.

What exactly do you think Mossad is going to do?

If i was working for the Mossad in Thailand, i know what i would do. Read Thaivisa, follow your suggestion, having the video translated by a Nana slapper.

You're damn right about that.

I'm sorry to say I now hope this country takes the fall its hubris deserves.

I thought the video was mocking the Chula students who put on the Hitler sports day. Did you actually watch the video? Do you speak Thai?

"I didn't think it would be an issue,"

It says it all.... " I didn't think...."

A major problem with Thai authorities and politicians, they don't think...

No and No , but I don't need either to realise the use of his image in a Government video could be offensive

You mention its comparing a bad child to Hitler is that correct ? Well its some what dismissive of the 6 million killed in the Holocaust and the 70 odd million killed in conflict

Anyway my main gripe was T-Shirts

1. What do you think was the message of the video? 2. Are all videos with a 3 second drawing of Hitler insensitive and crass?

There were no T-shirts in the video. I know it's a revolutionary concept but you may want to watch something and try to understand it before commenting.

If I say Hitler is a bad guy are you going to jump all over me for using the word Hitler?

If as I mentioned they are somehow comparing Hitler to a naughty child , then yes I do. I just think its Thai crassness , but I can understand people who are offended. You seem like an intelligent bloke , Im sure if you look from others perspective you'll see the potential to offend

I believe you ... Kids are also wearing Che Guevara T-shirts without a clue as what he was.

But these are KIDS....They have an EXCUSE.

He's a PRIME MINISTER with a communication team and counselors, representing a COUNTRY

A post with an over sized and inappropriate picture has been removed from view.

thailiketoo please stop perambulating around the actual point which is using Hitler for their own benefit is deeply offensive.

Even according to your own posts it's disgusting they are associating some cheating kid with Hitler. Cheating is rampant across Thailand, are the population who once cheated to be associated with Hitler too? See how shallow this is?

And then there is the fact the vast majority of Thais have no idea of the significance of Hitler so using his image in this way is actually doing nothing good for anyone, which is no surprise given is was a Thai originated brain-fart of the decade.

The director said he didn't think it would be an issue. Lol. I didn't think it would be an issue for his brain either.

I speak Thai and live in Thailand. The movie was made by a Thai for Thai people and I think it was a slam against the pop culture that uses Hitler as a fashion statement. Do you think I'm wrong?

The movie is a rebuke for the Thai people that are into Nazi chic. The 3 second scene is not positive - it is negative portrayal. You got it backwards.
