Thailand or Egypt? which has the more repressive military government? Probably Egypt though it's hard to say for certain since there appears to be little "news" available to Thais who don't read English.
And who is the more inane, Sisi or Thailand's very own Dear Leader? That's a hard one, though Prayuth's recent pronouncements (such as why a certain Thai woman has been "disappeared" for re-education...assuming she's still alive ) suggest that he regards himself as some sort of kindly father disciplining errant children. A dangerous man.

For those who were prepared to take the events leading up to the coup at their face value- that is, according to the Suthep spin- the recent comments from that pompous murderer have let the cat out of the bag....the coup was planned years ago.
Meanwhile, it becomes ever more obvious that the sort of democracy that we in the west usually support- one person/one vote- will have no place in the Brave New Thailand; the peasants/Redshirts/buffaloes/workers cannot be trusted to choose their national government; their votes will be restricted to the elections for village chiefs with no significant powers.
And finally, for those posters who are inclined to say "so what? the go-go bars are still operating", I suggest caution. The fascists that now run a country some of us love are not content with power for its own sake; they wish to transform society in ways that gays and liberals- not to mention democrats- will find uncomfortable.
