[Confuseous]

“My worry is that the government will normalize what is exceptional. Current stay-home, current social distancing, current prevention of people gathering is under the exceptional conditions of the pandemic. But will become normalized as a mode of generalized surveillance from now onwards.
And that’s what I’m really worried about because this government is also addicted to the surveillance of its citizens in a very big way for the last 30 years or so. I mean if you go to Little India right now because of a little riot, the fields in Little India right now are completely unusable because of the way they flooded the entire field, and no one would even want to sit down in the middle of it.
So already we’re getting warnings that the kind of circuit breaker restrictions are not going to go away easily, but I’m afraid that not only will it not go away easily but it will become the norm, because surveillance is a habit of our state.”

If there are people willing to sacrifice our integrity posting supporting voices despite common sense and datas shows otherwise be it oppies, cronies or common folks out of ignorance in social media especially in our MPs and Ministers fB as our norm seems to be...

They'll say it's democracy and public encouragement and what can the rest of us do ? Aren't those one of us or our children or at least civilians is it not ?

If we fight among ourselves how can there be unity, oneness and real power ever other than being taken advantage off only........

Like in a family if it's not tight others take advantage ....

Personal righteousness and integrity is utmost important. The rest will come naturally when enough are righteous. Like if we're willing to employ locals first despite lesser profits how can they take advantage ?
