Why is this look like nazi salute? Is it nazi salute? No it isn't. Read this comment.
Context
: I could go on and on and write a book about all the problems we are
facing, but to put it simply, in 2013 there's military coup, in 2019
there's election. The military cheat their way in to win anyway, and
they failed to manage country. It's even more obvious when there's
covid-19. The economy is fallen. People suicides every week because they
lost their hope. Some people kill their spouse and child then suicide
becuase they can't feed their family. The rest go hungry or homeless.
People
start to question the dictatorship government. They try to silenced
us by doing thing they always do : enforced disappearence. HUNDREDS of
people who speak up go missing. It's fucking scary. Sometimes they
charge and jail people for simply holding a sign.
Today we fight back, but apparently, the government has silenced the news agency too. Our protesting is barely on news.
Edit : it's 2014 not 2013
EDIT NUMBER TWO : READ THIS
You
heard that Thai people handle covid-19 very well, yes you are right,
but that's because we are alerted and, let's say, handle it by
ourselves, while The dictatorship government make everything worse and
basically go against their own rule.
We
are the first country besides China to have covid-19 cases, wanna
know why? While others country start to banned china people to enter
their country. They (as in, the DG) suck china's dick and have the
campaign to specifically welcome chinese tourists.
Then, the DG start to tell people to social distancing and banned the crowd place.
Thing
doesn't get so bad yet. Until there's multiple case in the same time.
We found out that the patient are all going to same place : The boxing
stage. which is somehow still open. And who own that boxing stage? The
big name soldier who play big role in the DG.
Thing
start to get bad but Thai people are very alert about the disease. We
wear mask everyday. Social distancing. Quarantine. Wash our hand. Stop
running business.
Then the price
of surgical masks suddenly very expensive from the store and it's
getting hard to find them. from high demand, maybe. The DG say doctor
come first and demand that every masks factory stop export masks to
another country and send masks to them so they can pass it to the
hospitals, but the hospitals said that they didn't receive any masks.
Laters,
they found 200 millions pieces of surgical masks in the hand of the man
who try to export it to china. The man claimed that he has the support
from the assistant of fucking minister of agriculture himself.
The
DG banned many business now. People start to getting financial
problem, lost their job (my sister too) So they promise to give people
5000 baht. But the register system is broken and more than 3/4 of people
didn't get the money
The economy was fallen. Some people is homeless now. There's people who suicide, some of them took their whole family as well.
But
we didn't let our guard down. We social distancing. We wear masks
(fabric mask now because the whole country run out of surgical masks)
EVEN AFTER 40-50 DAYS OF LAST COVID-19 CASE FOUND.
then a few day ago. There's 2 cases of covid-19, out of the blue.
The
first case is Egypt soldier who fly in from Egypt's army plane. And who
give permission to that plane? Ministry of Foreign affairs! Every
people who come to Thailand have to quarantine for 14 days, but they
let this dude wandared around in Rayong district. Army. Military. You
know who's behind this stuff.
The
second case is Sudan 9-year-old girls. The detect that she has covid-19
since she arrives at the airport but they let her go quarantine herself
because she's daughter of diplomat.?!?????
The
Rayong district is in trouble. We just reopen the school in 1 July and
now the school in Rayong had to close again. 90% percent of hotel
booking was cancelled. The tourism which start to going good, going to
hell again.
The ministry of
Health, try stupidity to save Rayong tourism, said that there's no
danger. He said that he'll give 100000 baht if people who travel to
Rayong catch covid-19. I want to die.
The
prime minister went to Rayong district. There are 2 guys simply holding
a sign to protest. The cops force them into cars and finally let them
go kilometers away from their protest point. They had to walk back.
That, along with several people that has been enforced disappearence. Is a breaking point. So we start protesting.
The
guys who hold a sign at Rayong join the protest today. His quote?
"I've decided to walk this way (protesting) I already told my mom to
prepare my funeral"
People who
speak up about problem in Thailand often ending up to jail or
disappearing (aka die if you ask me) that's why we need to spread the
words worldwide. Help us.
Read this too
EDIT NUMBER 3. NO IT IS NOT HITLER SIGN. YES IT IS THE HUNGER GAME GESTURE. READ THIS.
It's
from the hunger game. I never watch the hunger game but I think
the gesture was to pay respect and say goodbye to Katniss,
and then she survive the game and help other boy to survive
too, right? It's against the rule so people look up to that as a
rebellion, and it quickly became a thing.
Inspired by its use in The Hunger Games, the three finger salute is now used in Thailand as a way to protest the military coup in control of the Thai government. The protest usage began in 2014 during the release of Mockingjay: Part 1 and is now illegal in Thailand.
Worth
mentioning that I don't really know if this gesture is really illegal,
but they chuck a bunch of guys who do this in jail so I suppose it is?
Idk. They jail a guy who read 1984 book too I think.
If I see another comment saying "nazi salute" I will lost my shit. Also, for people who call this gesture cringey, read this
EDIT NUMBER 4. THE PROTESTERS IS GOING BACK HOME FOR NOW, BACK IN 2 WEEKS
We
are new to the big protest stuff. This is our first day. Just today,
there's soldiers, fully armed, going in the school near the protest
place.(it's saturday, phew) The polices lure the protester into the
police cars and try to drive away. (they are safe now) People are hurt
by officer EVERYWHERE. but we will be back in a fortnight. Please keep
spreading the words. YOU wil make our next act easier. Thanks!
