as someone not in thailand i'm gonna say what those stupid lese majeste laws don't let them: fuck that and also fuck the king
seriously tho the Thailand situation fucking sucks
far as I can tell? Fuckass "constitutional court" ruling by decree in the favour of the royals, basically shutting down an entire popular leftwards-reform party after they had won, and every time a politician even mentions they're open to revising the lese-majesty laws they fucking obliterate them it's insane
Hearing about shit like this almost makes me thankful for how insane shit is here in the Philippines, it's such a chaotic churn of inane bullshit that even when some charismatic strongman like duterte rises, they can't unite enough people on their side for long enough to actually dominate anything.
duterte was a wannabe dictator who rolled a bunch of 1s on his Build Your Levers Of Power rolls and then proceeded to get COVID like four times
Marcos probably aspires to be a dictator like his dad but I have more force of personality than him and I'm a fucking depressed dragon lesbian on the internet. He's probably gonna get away with a bunch of corruption and fail to actually hold onto jack shit
