CSJ and SDP are ahead of our time.
No matter, dumb sinkies dun deserve them.
Slowly but surely the dumbos are waking up....tak boleh tahan pap's endless ass fucking I supposed.
WP is doing a good job holding the opposition fort...for a mature democracy we need everyone on board.
That day will come....maybe I won't live to see it....but I'll do my best and educate the 60.1% to ensure my children get to see it.

I won't say they are ahead of time but going out of tune with the general expectations of the voters. By far the electorates are still highly conservatives and risk averse. While there is a greater demand for more opposition MPs in parliament, my feeling is people are still very selective and won't vote any opposition for the sake of it. Voters wants more oppositions with minimal disruptions to the functioning of PAP government and greater degree of policy continuation. Proposing policies platform that depart too far from the status quo, too radical changes (whether rightly or wrongly) will make it very difficult for people to accept.

I thought this is usually a result of other users deactivating their FB accounts. :confused:

Maybe. It's just odd that they all went down together within 1 week, they used to only go up so far. There are usually many more new Likes than deactivations (SDA being the exception), so i think something else was going on then.

PAP number of new 'Likes' stand out too (within 3 weeks: 1.2k new for PAP vs 200 new for WP) . They go up proportionally faster than anybody elses. Are their voters getting more internet savvy or did the party start to push FB use more? Or do they really have a click army at work?
