Summary
Thai police arrested US academic Paul Chambers on charges of insulting the monarchy and violating computer crime laws, linked to remarks made during an online seminar.
Chambers, a political science professor at Naresuan University, was summoned after a complaint by the Thai Army.
He denied the charges and was denied bail, with no trial date set. Thailand enforces strict lèse-majesté laws under Article 112, carrying up to 15 years in prison.
What if you’re part Thai, or specifically, one part of you is Thai? 😆
I’m imagining a scenario like with Ray Gillette from Archer, where a non-Thai person gets a robotic hand prosthesis that uses skin from a Thai person, making only that specific part of them “Thai.”
Sorry. Just some shitpost trans humor. One part of me is Thai! Well, made in Thailand at least.
No need to apologize! That’s a cool self-fact. :)
