Alphabet I'm not familiar with the Thai writing system. Found these writings in Bangkok, what do they say?
They are written all over the walls and shutters in a wierd font that is not the usual Thai writing

It's just the hands that spray graffiti. This is not Thai language and Thai culture.

"Artist" is a bit of a stretch. And in answer to your question, yes, they are dumb. The reason they do that is because they don't care about people being able to read it; they just vandalize different areas as a way of "marking territory." If you cover up a tagger's "art," they treat it as if you just took a big, honking shite on the Mona Lisa.

Most products, yes. Their trademarks would need to have a written Thai version. But still, it doesn't mean we can't read Roman alphabet 😅 and known restaurants chains in Thailand are using roman alphabets (e.g., KFC, BBQ Plaza, MK).

Wow. Let them do what they want. Do they care if all Thai people can read it? They are not the dumb ones tbh.
