      It’s a Thai political reference. The guy in the middle picture is Suthep Thaugsuban, a Thai politician who lead anti-government protests and attempted to unseat their government in 2013. It’s not in the linked article, but whistles were a major symbol of the protests.

      @SSJMarx@lemm.ee tagging you in case you’re interested.

      IIRC the pictures on her dresser are from some political rally/protest, but I don’t know the details.
