The clip was posted on Tuesday captioned “for Bangkok tomorrow” and “for shooting protesters”, clearly referring to the pro-democracy protest scheduled to start on Wednesday afternoon. 
There is a concern that the government will resort to violent means to control the protesters, and many netizens slammed the soldier for this “careless” post.&nbsp; 
One person warned the soldier that he may face sedition charges and that he had violated the Computer Crime Act, to which he responded: “I’m sorry for my carelessness. Next time I will be more careful.” 
An image of the chat between the netizen and soldier was later shared online.
