#AbolishConscription: Stop Patriarchal Oppression in the name of 'Serving the Country'!


#ยกเลิกเกณฑ์ทหาร #AbolishConscription - Have you ever seen someone crying their hearts out after they picked up a red card on the draft lottery day?


Have you ever seen the news where the conscripts face being humiliated, discriminated against, abused, or even tortured during their time in the army?


Thai male citizens over the age of 21 who have not gone through reserve training are subject to conscription. In addition to forced labor and human rights violations, military conscription enables the driving forces of patriarchy to flourish.


We need to stop this patriarchal oppression in the name of “serving the country” and encourage a system that respects everyone, regardless of their sexual orientation and gender identity! Every Human Being. Every Manushyan. #WeAreManushyan
