But Cant blame the people.. How to speak up when the threat of jail term or bankruptcy looms in the distance and when our education system teaches nothing of thinking and everything about obedience to authority? and especially when our leader is someone who is malevolent and indifferent to human rights
seems like the education that do not teach people to think has fail.
Since there are people educated in singapore who thinks and challenge authorities.

Do not cast your pearls before swine
Do not waste good things on people who will not appreciate them.This proverb is adapted from a saying of Jesus from the Gospels, “Cast not pearls before swine.”
Jesus appears to be warning his disciples to preach only before receptive audiences.

Expect everyone to accept what you say as the one and only truth.
When you post stuff, and people do not appreciate them, they are swines. Your message is the one and only truth. they shall not think about the issue or question your authority.
It is correct because you said so.

So the result is that we have produced a younger generation who are meek and therefore very calculating.
Like throwing pearls before swine.

my take on this - fear , the culture of fear is so endemic, latent, that is what its all about, utter wrongly and u end up in loads of shit, perhaps, change can n may happen when parents parent intelligently, otherwise susah lor
