Could it be that CSJ's 'rather extreme view of the quotes' that
you enjoy most is probably due to the fact that he is very focus in
the energy that he applied for his cause in challenging the
Politics that is practised by the Ruling Political Party
?
When it is determined that a course of action will only reap ruin
or futility, the prudent choice is to disengage and attack from a
different angle. There is no point continuing inconsequential
battles if there is no light at the end of the tunnel.
Your observation is exactly the course that I believe CSJ has
taken.
He is currently exposing to the Global Community - the sham
democracy that the Ruling Political Party is practising in
Singapore, suppressing and keeping Singaporeans enslave to the
political and economic systems that perpetuate the rule of the
POWER OF ONE.
In your choice of R.A Butler, it is interesting to note that in
Chee's case, because of massive character assassination by our
ruling party and through his own self-styled beliefs, it is not the
'rest of the pack' that is turning on him, but the very people he
sought to champion.
Actually those people whom he sought to champion IS the 'rest of
the pack' .
The 'rest of the pack' prefer to remain blind to the abuse of the
Political Rights that Singaporeans are entitled, and prefer to be
cowed by the strong sense of insecurity that the Ruling Political
Party has allowed to perpetuate to benefit the Ruling Party and the
POWER OF ONE.
Is it any surprise that the 'rest of the pack' find it safer to
wait at the side of the table of the POWER OF ONE, and wait for
crumbs to fall from the table at the pleasure of the POWER OF ONE
?
It is unfortunate that CSJ's delivery lack polish, seemingly crude,
impolite, and brash despite his tertiary professional qualification
as a Psychologist.
This unpolished manner could actually be taken as sheer honesty,
compared to the guile propaganda speeches made with a glib tongue
by the Ruling Political Party.
Is CSJ the only one who began a political career in this manner
?
LKY was exactly like CSJ in the 1950s, and was disliked by the
largely Chinese educated population towards a fellow Chinese - who
behave arrogantly brash, and could not speak a word of Chinese
dialect or even Mandarin.
