they said voting is irrational, emotions always win.
Both do not qualify if one follows the rules. They will allow a contest is to give Halimah legitimacy and they are confident they she will win.
Absolutely, my kakis all ready to fuck the PAP dead. Don't believe go get some chaps to the counting centre for AJ-GRC to witness it
I revisited your first post. Your choice of word "The ONLY right thing to do ..." may have made us feel that you are trying to convince others.
Your stand to boycott because it is unconstitutional and flawed appeared noble on the surface. It is idealistic to think that boycotting will give a clear signal to them, that the people is aware of the tricks and are angry so that they will stop such nonsense in future. Unfortunately, it is unlikely the case.
Politics is dirty. It is about getting the results that they want. They are fully aware that most people knows the game they are playing. They will study and gauge to see how many will actually vote otherwise to register their anger, how many will vote in favor because they don't know or don't care and how many will boycott. If the percentage of the last 2 categories are high, there will be election. Boycotting besides reducing the chance of the opponent to win is also good for them mathematically when they win because it reduced the base of vote cast and make the percentage looks bigger. Boycotting will not improve the situation in the future. However, losing may because they then realize that the public is no longer so pliant and such tricks don't work anymore.
Yes, it is quite silly to vote the other guy who is equally not qualified. However, it is the better course of action in sending a clear signal.
there will be another mighty AJ battle in GE 2021 !!!
If you look at it from a different angle....any boycott is a vote of dissent of the system.
Not easy keeping the fighting spirit up here, bro. WP need to put in more effort connecting the ground.

Yup.. Same sediment. I don't get involved in the system that is rigged. If more people do that, it will sent a huge message to the PAP.
Not only elections, their rigged policies need to be boycotted as well.
"sent a huge message to the PAP"??
Hallo... you think they care?
I would rather vote for anybody else for real action.
i just say boycotting by the MAJORITY will sent the huge message.
Boycotting or not, one-on-one or a 3-corner fight, the PAP-endorsed candidate will win because the ruling party continues to receive support from the public sector employees, Malay voters, womenfolk, new citizens and low wage earners who are collecting monthly cash payout from workfare.

Like I said, the PAP-endorsed candidate will likely win. But what we can do is to vote for the non-PAP candidate to minimize the % vote of the PAP candidate. Boycotting won't achieve that.
Those who say Halimah sure win so why waste time voting? You guys are fucking lazy useless bums.
You are the type that will never try and fight hard to win and achieve anything. Typical sinkie. Only support winning teams. Any investment or business must have 100% chance win and succeed then bother to try.
Shitty attitude. Might as well just kill yourself right now since you are going to die eventually anyway.
Crap!
