| Abstract | This article examines the interplay between identity and youth politics in Thai online communities. It argues that digital platforms have become central spaces for political expression, enabling young people to construct, negotiate, and contest their identities through memes, hashtags, and performative acts. These online spaces foster solidarity and participatory citizenship while also exposing youth to risks of surveillance, harassment, and legal repercussions. By analyzing the dynamics of self-presentation, community building, contestation, and cross-platform diffusion, the article highlights how digital culture is reshaping political legitimacy, democratic practices, and civic education in Thailand. |
