No freak show
I'm very sure that there'll be no freak show, no freak results come 7 May as there'll still be some people who freak out at the very last second.
But I implore you to think through the following questions (assuming ceteris paribus, especially the economy and the tech advancements parts):
1. What was your track record when you were just a new born baby? It's your mom's track record, not yours.
2. When the MIWs were holding rallies in their first election, did they have any track record(s)?
3. When the MIWs were holding their first rallies, did they not invoke strong emotions amongst the audiences?
4. Emotions influence one's call-to-action to a certain extent, no?
5. When the MIWs were standing for the first election in Singapore, who made them the government?
6. When the MIWs first persuaded your ancestors to vote for them, how did they do it? Were they sincere, humble, and compassionate? Compare them then and now. Then compare them then and now, with the opposition then and now. How much has changed? Who changed the most? For better or for worse?
7. Did our old British colonial masters engage in smear/vandalism/sympathy tactics when the locals demanded independence?
Yes, with social media, things are different. Yet, big boy once again showed complacence only by setting up a 'live chat' (which was actually a live-wall-post-replies-to-some-of-your-questions-if-you-like-my-page session) when he was suddenly enlightened three days before polling day, and noticed that some of their MPs were rather successful in their social media outreach.
Then again, a certain master of a legion of 'influential' minions might have recieved press-kits from a successful social media trained MIW and is trolling the social media sphere with 'declarations of love' for that MIW and his fellow MIWs. 'Nuff said.
We need humans who care for human progress, not humans who care for financial progress.
ARE YOU SINGPOREAN ENOUGH TO NOTICE IT? FEEL IT? DO IT?
I'm gonna leave you at that.
It's the cooling period after all. These are just some food for thought (:
