@InvictusManeo @basedasian @WhiteAmericanEskimo @Kalogerosstilitis2RevengeoftheJunta His speech patterns and mannerisms are a thing of wonder to study. He routinely insults Westerners to their face, in English, and it takes them a minute or so for it to click because he is so soft spoken and polite. Masterful.

@TrevorGoodchild @Kalogerosstilitis2RevengeoftheJunta @basedasian I will give people a taste of how based he was, and I think it is entirely purposeful how his philosophy has been completely gone unnoticed by the Western jewish press when, in fact, he was Asian and he was extremely "racist".
"I started off believing all men were equal. I now know that's the most unlikely thing ever to have been, because millions of years have passed over evolution, people have scattered across the face of this earth, been isolated from each other, developed independently, had different intermixtures between races, peoples, climates, soils... I didn't start off with that knowledge. But by observation, reading, watching, arguing, asking, that is the conclusion I've come to."
Lee Kuan Yew The Man & His Ideas (1997)
"The Bell curve is a fact of life. The blacks on average score 85 per cent on IQ and it is accurate, nothing to do with culture. The whites score on average 100. Asians score more … the Bell curve authors put it at least 10 points higher. These are realities that, if you do not accept, will lead to frustration because you will be spending money on wrong assumptions and the results cannot follow."
Lee Kuan Yew The Man & His Ideas (1997)
"If, for instance, you put in a Malay officer who's very religious and who has family ties in Malaysia in charge of a machine gun unit, that's a very tricky business. We've got to know his background... I'm saying these things because they are real, and if I don't think that, and I think even if today the Prime Minister doesn't think carefully about this, we could have a tragedy."
SM Lee Kuan Yew Straits Times (19 September 1999) on Malays in the Singapore Armed Forces
"Equal employment opportunities, yes, but we shouldn't get our women into jobs where they cannot, at the same time, be mothers...our most valuable asset is in the ability of our people, yet we are frittering away this asset through the unintended consequences of changes in our education policy and equal opportunities for women. This has affected their traditional role … as mothers, the creators and protectors of the next generation."
Yew was, by most metrics, a "fascist" and authoritarian, yet he has gone unnoticed because he did not persecute jews. He could easily be considered the "modern Hitler" and used as a cautionary tale about quashing the freedom of the press, political groups, etc, but instead we hear crickets because he does not fit the narrative.

@Kalogerosstilitis2RevengeoftheJunta @TrevorGoodchild I would like to hear a based summary of Lee Kuan Yew if someone has the time and knowledge. I am familiar with his work (his work being Singapore) and have been there many times. While I've heard liberals (in Singapore) criticize him for being too authoritarian and persecuting political thought, what I've read about him seems very positive and Singapore's infrastructure is impressive. His quotes on racism, ethnicity, Malays, and democracy seem based and correct. Whenever someone mentions "multi-culturalism" I immediately think that the only place that managed to work was Singapore, mostly because the authoritarian hand of Yew never allowed things to get out of hand in the natural competition between the racial groups. I appreciated how he believed in racial primacy (the Chinese) in his hand-forged county and encouraged childbirth. Would love to read some informed thoughts on him. Perhaps several long comments to bring readers up to speed? He presented a model that worked. Thanks.

They should find out what the junta will say when we get to power.
