Re: Heckling is so common nowadays!!

Our scholars, millionaire ministers and dumb MPs, including WP Yee, don't even know the meaning of heckling when they accused the CPF protesters of heckling the keechiu (aka special needs) children.

Re: Local social worker: Pap keeps taking money away from family with special needs k

What you mean by government taking away support??? I thought the government do not give support to those kids??? Maybe the writer need to advise what support the government took it way???

Like a lot of peoples here said that the government use their money... However when asked... They said they paid tax so all those money spent by government on each ministry belong to them...

Just like I told people I own Singtel because I have 1 lot of it shares... Ha...ha...

That is why our PM said that Singapore belong to everyone include ah tiong and ah neh because they pay taxes too like gst... The PM get your message loud and clear...

I think we are all quite clear that government support comes with terms and conditions. They give you support now, and they use you for political capital in future. It seems PAP have once again brought Singapore politics to a new low by utilising retarded children to throw m&d at dissident voices. It's pretty appalling, they have gone for the shock value this time round, after all dirty hawker centre ceilings isn't exactly front page material.

Re: Local social worker: Pap keeps taking money away from family with special needs k

In vile pappies eyes...Retards are burden to society.....non productive entities.....cannot contribute to GDP thus their kpi.....thus they are useless.
But with Teo ser luck repackaging retards as human shields.....perhaps finally pappies will be willing to throw a few dollars into retard care.

Re: Local social worker: Pap keeps taking money away from family with special needs k

u know i agree....since when has PAP given a damn about welfare?they see welfare as a bonus package,something that they give out whenever they feel like or in a extra generous mood....not something thats part and parcel of every ang moh country.why the hell would they care about the elderly or the retards or the poor in this country,theres lots of "private charities" to take care of them,its none of the government's responsibility.....oh by the way the 41 bil taxes they collect every year?not including coe,erp and gst and whatnot.....thats their money not urs.....for them to spend it whichever way they deem fit....billion dollar white elephants,13 bil dollar army to protect fts and their paper generals and ministars pay packages and $8 heart surgery.

I totally disagree. I think all right-wingers should be gassed or beheaded as the mess of this world is their creation. Their creed of greed and self-centredness have turned us into animals.

Neoliberalism has brought out the worst in us
An economic system that rewards psychopathic personality traits has changed our ethics and our personalities

Paul Verhaeghe
theguardian.com, Monday 29 September 2014 09.00 BS
We tend to perceive our identities as stable and largely separate from outside forces. But over decades of research and therapeutic practice, I have become convinced that economic change is having a profound effect not only on our values but also on our personalities. Thirty years of neoliberalism, free-market forces and privatisation have taken their toll, as relentless pressure to achieve has become normative. If you’re reading this sceptically, I put this simple statement to you: meritocratic neoliberalism favours certain personality traits and penalises others.

There are certain ideal characteristics needed to make a career today. The first is articulateness, the aim being to win over as many people as possible. Contact can be superficial, but since this applies to most human interaction nowadays, this won’t really be noticed.

It’s important to be able to talk up your own capacities as much as you can – you know a lot of people, you’ve got plenty of experience under your belt and you recently completed a major project. Later, people will find out that this was mostly hot air, but the fact that they were initially fooled is down to another personality trait: you can lie convincingly and feel little guilt. That’s why you never take responsibility for your own behaviour.

On top of all this, you are flexible and impulsive, always on the lookout for new stimuli and challenges. In practice, this leads to risky behaviour, but never mind, it won’t be you who has to pick up the pieces. The source of inspiration for this list? The psychopathy checklist by Robert Hare, the best-known specialist on psychopathy today.

This description is, of course, a caricature taken to extremes. Nevertheless, the financial crisis illustrated at a macro-social level (for example, in the conflicts between eurozone countries) what a neoliberal meritocracy does to people. Solidarity becomes an expensive luxury and makes way for temporary alliances, the main preoccupation always being to extract more profit from the situation than your competition. Social ties with colleagues weaken, as does emotional commitment to the enterprise or organisation.

Bullying used to be confined to schools; now it is a common feature of the workplace. This is a typical symptom of the impotent venting their frustration on the weak – in psychology it’s known as displaced aggression. There is a buried sense of fear, ranging from performance anxiety to a broader social fear of the threatening other.

Constant evaluations at work cause a decline in autonomy and a growing dependence on external, often shifting, norms. This results in what the sociologist Richard Sennett has aptly described as the “infantilisation of the workers”. Adults display childish outbursts of temper and are jealous about trivialities (“She got a new office chair and I didn’t”), tell white lies, resort to deceit, delight in the downfall of others and cherish petty feelings of revenge. This is the consequence of a system that prevents people from thinking independently and that fails to treat employees as adults.

More important, though, is the serious damage to people’s self-respect. Self-respect largely depends on the recognition that we receive from the other, as thinkers from Hegel to Lacan have shown. Sennett comes to a similar conclusion when he sees the main question for employees these days as being “Who needs me?” For a growing group of people, the answer is: no one.

Our society constantly proclaims that anyone can make it if they just try hard enough, all the while reinforcing privilege and putting increasing pressure on its overstretched and exhausted citizens. An increasing number of people fail, feeling humiliated, guilty and ashamed. We are forever told that we are freer to choose the course of our lives than ever before, but the freedom to choose outside the success narrative is limited. Furthermore, those who fail are deemed to be losers or scroungers, taking advantage of our social security system.

A neoliberal meritocracy would have us believe that success depends on individual effort and talents, meaning responsibility lies entirely with the individual and authorities should give people as much freedom as possible to achieve this goal. For those who believe in the fairytale of unrestricted choice, self-government and self-management are the pre-eminent political messages, especially if they appear to promise freedom. Along with the idea of the perfectible individual, the freedom we perceive ourselves as having in the west is the greatest untruth of this day and age.

The sociologist Zygmunt Bauman neatly summarised the paradox of our era as: “Never have we been so free. Never have we felt so powerless.” We are indeed freer than before, in the sense that we can criticise religion, take advantage of the new laissez-faire attitude to sex and support any political movement we like. We can do all these things because they no longer have any significance – freedom of this kind is prompted by indifference. Yet, on the other hand, our daily lives have become a constant battle against a bureaucracy that would make Kafka weak at the knees. There are regulations about everything, from the salt content of bread to urban poultry-keeping.

Our presumed freedom is tied to one central condition: we must be successful – that is, “make” something of ourselves. You don’t need to look far for examples. A highly skilled individual who puts parenting before their career comes in for criticism. A person with a good job who turns down a promotion to invest more time in other things is seen as crazy – unless those other things ensure success. A young woman who wants to become a primary school teacher is told by her parents that she should start off by getting a master’s degree in economics – a primary school teacher, whatever can she be thinking of?

There are constant laments about the so-called loss of norms and values in our culture. Yet our norms and values make up an integral and essential part of our identity. So they cannot be lost, only changed. And that is precisely what has happened: a changed economy reflects changed ethics and brings about changed identity. The current economic system is bringing out the worst in us.

We have a number of over aged retards in Parliament... Lim Swee Say, Teo Ser Luck, Chan Chun Sing...

those already outgrown retard age, they are now in the idiot age group

Re: Chee Soon Juan spoke on YMCA saga

Why is Roy so dumb to fall into this "so-called" "PAP trap"? Dr. Chee who is definitely more likely to enter parliament has never fallen into any PAP trap.

 

[steffychun]

Some one explain to me why Roy fell into a trap

and not Dr. Chee, Tan Jee Say, any of the SDP members, former SDP members, others who have been to Hong Lim or have voiced out dissdenting voices. Excluding run to America Gopalan Nair, none of the others have fallen into such a PAP trap before, whether or not there was heckling or not, whether or not the "special needs" children were traumatised, whether or not Teo Ser Luck is right, wrong or stupid. So far in the opposition activism (excluding WP's Low et al), none of thme have had this "so-called" trap or actual trap. So why Roy ah?

The pappy mentality is to look after their own families.
