This
piece of news published 4th of june of 2014 in the news web
2014live.com, explains that the Thai
army have prohibited the greeting from the movie "The Hunger
Games", which is performed with three fingers, because it has
become a symbol of the opposition after the coup of the army on May.
In
the movies and books, the greeting is used as a protest against a
totalitarian regime, but the Thai protesters gave their own
meaning. Some people says that the three fingers stand Liberty,
equality and fraternity. Another people says that the three fingers
stand freedom, elections and democracy.
I've
chosen this piece of new, because I love this books. It's really
shocking how the rebel greeting can be caught from the fiction, to
become part of the reality.
- Greeting: Saludo
- Coup: Golpe de estado
- Farewell: Adiós, despedida
