              Yes you are that dumb.

              You got two sides to support. And your dumb ass is going with the yellow shirt royalist with their coke head corrupt billionaire king. I mean fuck dude. Does being a tankie make some one that stupid.

              Its literally billionaire vs billionaire lol.

              You do realize in the long run China is going to win that area no matter what right. It's their fucking back yard. Fuck, Thaksin is fucking Chinese along with the majority of business owners in Thailand.

                I mean do you have two sides to support or is it a shitty situation where you can say "both options are ethically impossible for me to support and I cannot predict which bad outcome will be worse".

                Being stuck between a monarchist junta and a cia billionaire proxy war makes rocks and hard places look like pillowforts.

                Just like non Americans watching the US election can say; "both parties are running imperialist candidates that will cause suffering abroad, neither is good for my country, my opinion doesn't help the americans or the people who might be affected by presidential warmongering".

                    I mean if "in the long run china is going to win that area" and at the moment US agencies are supporting a different group to counter who China supports, it seems like it will escalate to opose China's growing sphere of influence.

                    Those escalations from legitimate grievances and protests for democratic freedom are often pushed along by imperialists towards colour revolutions and then towards proxy wars. It's not always - and for the sake of the Thai people I hope it doesn't become that - but it's a possibility and I dont know if either side can be supported except for harm reduction purposes.
