- lazide 1y agoSaying ‘I don’t like their food’ == judgment. Saying ‘their food isn’t Thai food’ when it is == defamation. Saying ‘I found a cockroach in the food’ when you didn’t == defamation. The issue in Thailand, is all three will get you in deep trouble if discussing the royal family, or other topics yes?

- digianarchist 1y agoAh I see. Sorry I confused judgement with legal judgement.
- lazide 1y agoI think it could probably have been more clearly put as ‘opinion’ - aka someone’s individual judgement, as compared to a statement of fact.
