Anyways, is it actually possible to get rid of the lese majeste law entirely, though? I haven't delved that deep into Thai politics yet.
I feel like it's only natural, since straight-up insulting the head of state anywhere should be a crime. However, I do wish they'd somehow draft up an official definition for what acts constitute lese majeste, e.g. drawing a clear line between what may be considered an actual insult to the king, vs. what should be considered a mere form of criticism directed towards the government instead of the monarch.
Of course, if by that you mean deposing the monarchy entirely, it would be a much different story.
Even if said head of state does something worth insulting? (coofDutertecoof)
