Earlier this week, a video clip was circulated heavily on social media showing a middle-aged woman going to town on a white pickup truck with a hatchet. Comments on social media initially criticised the woman for what seemed like extreme overreaction. Now, considering that there is a printed acrylic sign in front of her house, you'd think Boonsri would've had an easy time getting the attention of appropriate authorities. This isn't even to mention the long, long list of academics, activists, journalists, regular citizens and even students who have put themselves at personal peril in order to be heard. In the age of social media, we have the platform required for these otherwise overlooked martyrs to make their messages heard.
