It's just not fucking fair! Boo fucking hoo.

Folks,

Don't worry. I haven't suddenly seen the light nor was I threatened with a lawsuit by Lee the Father (although in some ways that would be pretty fuckin' awesome. I can then finally test the results of severe post traumatic rectal bleeding on myself).

Anyway, I wanted to take a break from this website and I wanted to see if some of you semi-literate mental midgets can survive without me having to fill your vacuous life with information you are too stupid to source out. (Kidding. You folks are the reason I breathe and eat). But along came the general elections in Singapore and with that, the usual ragtag bunch of politicians and political supporters, false promises, mandatory opposition lawsuit, Lee the Father rumoured to have appeared at rallies addressing thousands of people and even a giant, ethereal PVC hammer of the Workers' Party going round hitting all in its path. How can I stay away from such a fun-filled gang-bang?

At the end of it all it was still the PAP that won, and with a resounding 67% mandate, or as I would like to say "I told you so".

My personal view is, the PAP is the only party which deserves to rule Singapore. Now before you get your panties in a bunch, shut up and pay attention and I'll tell you why.

Firstly, in even sham democracies, people get the governments they deserve. The fact that despite all the alleged bad performance of the PAP in the last five years, the mandate was still a resounding one, showing that the people still want them in. For that reason alone, the people deserve them. Having said that, I would like to say this to Singaporeans: Quit bitching. The next time fares of transport, GST, healthcare, and commodities go up, remember, you voted these in, so you deserve them. You sold your future for a "Progress Package" so shut the fuck up and bear it. You sold your future, your principles, your democracy and your vote for 50c a day. Serves you right and I for one am going to laugh at your expense if I ever find out that you voted for these idiots. Now for those in walkover wards, this includes all of you schmucks as well. Like it or not you are guilty by association as the MP or the group of MPs represent you. You have approved his/her representation as your MP by simply not making another candidate stand against him/her. Serves you right too. Quit bitching.

Need another reason why the PAP deserve to rule Singapore? Well, then look at who is controlling the GIC (LKY), all the GLC's (Ho Ching), all the major banks, HDB (Dr Aline Wong, James Koh), and even the Monetary Authority of Singapore (Goh Chok Tong and Tharman) which prints all those crisp new $50 bills that you withdrew last week from the "Progress Package". That's right: PAP men. If an opposition government takes hold, how long would it take for these people to temporarily shut down the country every once a while, blaming the government for it? Sure it's dirty politics. Sure, it's bullying. But whoever expects a clean game in politics is a fucking idiot. Singaporeans, by your apathy you have allowed this to happen and have let the PAP become pervasive in all parts of government, including the different non ministerial agencies. Why should they then blame the PAP for using this to their political advantage? They were right. Your houses will become slums, your vast reserves would inexplicably disappear and you go back crawling on your knees to them. I say, serves you right for not paying attention.

This brings me to yet another reason why PAP deserve to win. Democracy is not a spectator sport. Singaporeans have shown that they don't want democracy by being completely apathetical and resigned to the fact that the PAP wins everytime, without accepting any of the blame associated with it. When confronted with the "You voted them" argument they start spouting bullshit like "oh we didn't have a choice", or "they can track us down, rape our daughters, burn down our hovel, kill the dog and eat grandma for lunch!", or "I work for the government. I am not going to bite the hand that feeds me". Responses like this point to a populace that is shit scared of change. This is a people who don't WANT something different. They are afraid, not so much of the PAP as of change. They use silly excuses like this to maintain the status quo for themselves, even if it is a boxcar ride to the poor house. This fear is a self created fear and is almost as contemptible as apathy. Serves them right, and I hope someone does all the above to them, just out of spite.

The point about apathy brings me to a related point; ignorance. The most common excuse I hear is, "Oh I did not know anything about the opposition candidates because the media is one sided". A calm, gentle reminder to Singaporeans: You fucking dickwad morons! Of course the media is one sided. Did you really expect them to give a fair coverage of the issues and opponents? You have the internet, you have alternative sources of information and yet you chose, out of your own free will to not find out more. You were to busy watching Singapore fucking Idol or some insipid reality show to actually bother finding out who the fuck is going to represent you in parliament. Wilful ignorance must be punished by tyranny. Serves you right.

So my message to Singaporeans is, no one deserves to rule Singapore but the PAP. Quit whining and shut up. Also remember, in democracies there is no one "ruling". The very fact that you didn't notice the word "rule" as opposed to "govern" shows how tolerant you have become to totalitarian rule. Serves you right again.
