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.
It’s such a shame when people downvote factual things, simply because they don’t like to hear them.
In this case it’s especially poignant, since the topic is about a person that censors and/or punishes people who say things they don’t like.
Meh. I think I have a personal downvoter that downvotes everything I say on principle. No biggie.
I’ve heard that from others (and thought that) before, too. But I’ve come to believe there are simply some sad, little trolls on here that are either too cowardly or lazy to comment. It’s pathetic.
Not being invested enough to engage isn’t pathetic, it’s the normal response. It’s not pathetic to not be chronically online my dude
I don’t doubt op has a stalker, but not commenting everywhere isn’t what makes them pathetic. It’s all the times when the stalker is engaging that are pathetic, not the times when they aren’t
It’s all pathetic. Devoting one’s time to following someone around just to downvote them is a pathetic way to live. It’s not less pathetic if they comment - the lack of comments is just something I’ve observed.
