Many reds claim to perfectly understand the yellows, yet dont actually spend much time with them. There are many old sayings on that issue but I would like to avoid them. Max says that the PAD / PDRC is a formidable beast that could - if they ever wanted - eat their masters. Especially, if they feel that the later clique is under the impression that they have served their purpose. (This btw. reminds me of the PTP government last year thinking of the more progressive red shirts as legacy - look what it got them.) And unlike the UDD they are not afraid of anything because they have a militant and crazy mindset and more discipline. Their rank and file sees themselves as the makers - not the pawns. And believe me they are not in just for the money because they arent poor in the first place. They are in for their share of the power and are populist in that within their organization members share part of that power. Something that few in the opposite camp have realized or made a concept of before. But we are getting ahead of ourselves here. As Paco said Prayuth already has all the power so PM is just a formalism and aint worth mentioning. Super happy-dictator over of all pseudo-governments at his mercy sounds much better. If he goes for PM it just shows everybody - even the craziest ultra-right wing guys - that he really means to take his person serious. And the yellows are not going to take that just like that. Now as ludicrous as this may sound: wouldnt it be cool to overcome dictatorship by making a pack team with former enemies and then forming a government of national unity? It would be messy, full of conflict and may even see brawls in parliament house. But we would be all Thai by mentality again and look over the chaos knowing that the alternative is what we face today - an ever deeper and darker hole.
