Rubber Ducks in Thai Protests Inspire Solidarity and Memes
Thailand s new protest icon was celebrated by #milkteaalliance activists across Asia.
Rubber ducks became the newest icon of the Thai democracy movement after protesters used them as shields against police water cannons on November 17. The rubber ducks were used again the following day during a rally condemning police violence.
Images of a rubber duck stained with purple-colored chemicals from the water used in the cannons went viral, inspiring memes and messages of solidarity from activists, artists, and internet users in Thailand and also in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
