Consider me fresh-off-the-boat, what exactly are the standards to measure the Thai's or Thailand as a country by?

 

No one seems to have a defined yardstick.

What you see on Thai TV is a good guide. They censor smoking, but not killing each other with guns or swords.

Thai TV, local channels and content, reminds me of 70's American TV content, I guess the American Standard would be an appropriate yardstick.

Don't forget about FBI Hoover and his deeds in the 70s too...
