She doesn't support democracy. She supports dictatorship and fascist.

The evidence of her support of fascism is everywhere.There are dozens of photos of her on the Internet with her in military outfits cheering the military's crushing of democracy after the last coup. Posts have been made here in the past about issues relating to her and yet they all seem to disappear. Who keeps deleting the comments and questions about her and other of Thailand's fascists?

Her celebration of the coup is already mentioned in the article. Her mistrust of voters and electoral democracy is quoted as well. The accusation of fascism, however, is not verifiable with WP:reliable sources. --RJFF (talk) 14:28, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wearing military uniforms and celebrating with wine when the Thai military takes over once again is evidence. She knows Thai history. She knows people are always jailed and disappeared in the past, as they were under the coup she dressed up and partied to celebrate. Human rights abuses and murders of political dissidents happened under the coup. She supported that. She has never made a public statement against the abuses that anyone can post here. Find the evidence of her showing regret and you might have a point. NaturalEquality (talk) 02:19, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Again: Her celebration of the coup is mentioned in the article. Her mistrust and condescension towards some voters is mentioned as well. No one is denying that. However, the lead section of the article should only summarise the most notable stations of her biography. These are her role as a spokesperson of PDRC during the 2013/14 protests and her office as MP since 2019. The coup celebration is only a minor event. You may be offended by the repeated mention of the word "Democrat(ic)", but People's Democratic Reform Committee and Democrat Party are the names of organisations she adheres to. You may doubt whether these organisations deserve their names (because their actions during the crisis and coup destabilised democracy rather than supporting it) but we cannot change their names or avoid to mention them. By the way, core principles of Wikipedia are neutrality and verifiability — not truth. --RJFF (talk) 18:50, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Net worth

I removed the net worth parameter from the infobox, as the parameter has now been deprecated. If anyone wants to add that content elsewhere in the article, you can find what I removed in this edit. Firefangledfeathers (talk) 18:28, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
