The Monarchy

The National Day Message was so full of bull you could hear it moo. The general gist of what PM Goh was saying went like "I am handing down to Son of God. he is good." All the stuff about progreesive society, but a planned progress, sounded so butt kissing. Who the heck would buy something like that? What's more, he was saying how wonderful Lee Kuan Yew was, then rolling on about how the new "team" would be great. I don't think he wanted to do that speech very much, just that God forced him to. Satying on in Cabinet? Hm. Another Senior Minister? Why can't the friggin family just let go? Oh yeah. Goh also said something about Singapore's leaders not going after power. He probably said that because it was the exact opposite of what was happening. The worst thing is, all the stupid bimbos on the street listen to this message, thinking they're so smart and chim, and in the end, believe it! It's never going to change. Singapore is a monarchy. A progressive society my left buttock it is. The NDP this year will be even more rubbishy than usual. What can you expect? I'm sure there are more capable leaders, just that no one wants to sacrifice their cushy jobs to start aa proper opposition, not the lousy, pathetic, clap trap, cowardly, self-serving one that we have now. Geez. And they try to keep Singaporeans loyal with the "everything is for your own good". The Singapore government is so bloody paternalistic. It would drive any thinking person mad. The problem is, so many people don't think! You can here the quotes everywhere. Singapore is safe. Singapore is clean. Singapore has a good education system. Singapore is developed. Singapore is far ahead in Asia. Well, socially, and politically, compare Singapore with Denmark, or Sweden, or Switzerland, and we're only barbaric cavemen who can only say "Ugh, PAP good, Ugha." Then we sing stupid, banal national songs that belong in a communist album, waving those freakin flags. Cultivating loyal, brainwashed citizens is what they want to do. Which of course, exlpains why they control the media, teach SS in school, make you sing the national anthem or get punished, curb your freedom of speech, tell you that they're wonderful. Oh ye mortals, open your eyes!
