My mother said basically that the other day and I just yelled out the window that the current president sucks and said "now we wait for the police! Anytime now!" (I don't live in the US BTW)

Lol try that in Thailand and let me know how you go

That's OK, you can't say that about the monarchy though...

Which is also the point of the article. It's only people who have nothing more serious to complain about, that complain about "political correctness".

People in Thailand probably aren't complaining about "not being able to say anything these days" because they can actually complain about something tangible- that is: you can't speak freely about the monarchy.

Ah, I interpreted your statement in terms of "the current president sucks" rather than in terms of saying anything you like (e.g. about the monarchy).

Or, is this where I double down and start insulting you?
