We have no need to get jealous of someone who has no brains to stop his mouth from shooting off and getting himself sued to bankruptcy.
There is a very very thin line between being a martyr and being an idiot. Dr CSJ may have started out with good intentions but his course of actions just brought him to the side of idiocy.
There is no point demanding that people support or respect him for what he did. People will judge with their own hearts and minds.
Don't give me the Singaporeans-are-just-brainwashed-by-the-regime-controlled-media crap. We are smarter than that. I believe most Singaporeans will put Dr CSJ in another (much lower) league compared to the late JBJ.
The more he tries to advertise his antics, the more desperate he seems. Desperation is hardly what we want to see in a person, much less a politician who wants to replace the regime.
It's one thing to replace a rotten apple. It's another to keep insisting that we replace it with a totally rotten orange while just criticising anyone who points out that the change gives a net loss.
Your lack of open-mindedness is appalling. It just reminds me of the person at the top of the regime who can take less criticisms than a teaspoon.

Anal mode:
I never say that I am smart and the above 3 new agencies are stupid.
Egoistic mode:
I am indeed smarter than those 3 news agencies who are staffed with people of hidden agendas.
Anti-scholar mode:
It does not mean that having better results means being smarter. Similarly, having higher circulation does not mean being smarter.
Kaopeh mode:
Ya lar ya lar, you smart, people dumb lor. Locals not as trustworthy as ang-mohs. Limpeh will show them who is the real smart one.
Anti-foreign talent mode:
Please lor, these foreign newspapers are out to grab our local journalism jobs only. Screw them. Ask them to get out of Singapore!
Anti-defamation mode:
Your tone has an implicit meaning of saying that I am dumb. Wait for my lawyer's letter while I sue you to bankruptcy.
Dr CSJ mode:
My freedom to speak my opinion is enshrined in the Singapore Constitution. You are trying to suppress my dissidence towards your own views.
Pick and choose please.
