Culture of fear

Posted by on October 28, 2008 8 Comments

It is up to the people who fear, to get rid of the fear itself. Cynics may again say that culture is impossible to change. But how do you know unless you try? And it all starts with something small – talk.

    Those who voted for the PAP out of fear have played into the hands of the oldfart.
    It is a tragedy to go through an entire lifetime fearing one man and his system, and to carry this fear all the way to one’s grave.

    Only by challenging the bully, one can start to see the cracks of the front the bully puts up.

    Dare we say Singapore has a culture? If yes; what is it?
    I do not see and culture – probably in a few hundred years time – not now.

    We i do see is a climate – and this climate is one of fear.

    1 man isolated can live in fear.
    1000 man together is fearless.
    10000 ?
    100000 ?

    Mentality can be changed in 1 day – just look at the number of people getting converted to another religion. They are converted in 1 day.

    Its totally possible and not difficult.

    When your pocket is hurt, you wake up = convert.
