Reposting a snippet from my latest blog post, you can read the full article here: http://xiaxue.blogspot.com/2020/07/raeesah-khan-ge-2020-and-being-labeled.html?m=1
I’m posting more about Raeesah Khan today.
First, a disclaimer. I do not dislike the Worker’s Party.
Of all the opposition parties, I think they are the best. I live in Aljunied grc, and they have done a great job so far. I agree with many of the policy suggestions in their manifesto.
For example, redundancy insurance, abolishing the retirement age, or lowering the age of eligibility for BTO flats, which will help singles and our LGBTQ community to get housing just like married couples are.
Previously I mentioned on my ig stories that Raeesah Khan is not suitable to be an MP.
Today I am going to ask some very important questions which I hope both WP and Raeesah will answer.
I refer to this tweet by Raeesah in the photos.
It appears that she is saying her political views can be summed up by
- Angela Davis’ political views
- Intersectional feminism
Many of you may not know about Angela Davis, but she is a far-left activist, who spent her life sympathising with some of the most oppressive communism regimes around.
She literally calls herself a communist, and was a member of the Communism Party in USA. I think there is no need to explain how horrible communism is.
And of course in order to make any non-communist country a communist state, it would involve total revolution, many lives, and replacing it with a totalitarian regime in charge of redistributing wealth back to its citizens.
She is also a prison abolitionist, campaigning for prisons to completely be eradicated. Where to put the murderers, I can’t seem to find a good answer, because it seems she also is against the death penalty.
Angela Davis was a member of the Black Panthers, a brutal communist, anti-semite organization. In 1970, Angela Davis bought the weapons that were used for a shootout during a trial of 3 black inmates accused of killing a white prison guard. All the black men and judge who was held hostage perished in the gunfight, and Davis fled the state. She was eventually caught.
Even though she conspired to commit murder, the jury found her not guilty.
In short, this woman is the antithesis to the Singapore that Mr Lee Kuan Yew wanted.
This tweet of Raeesah Khan’s talking about Angela Davis was posted only a few weeks ago, but surprisingly enough, nobody is talking about it.
Anyone who knows who Angela Davis is should be horror-filled that a candidate running for parliament is a fan of hers, and claims that the reading of her books represents her political views.
Previously I mentioned Raeesah appears to be one of those radical leftists who seem hell bent on bringing the toxic, cancerous identity politics that America is so notorious for into Singapore.
There are racial issues that minorities face in Singapore, of course there is. It is tough to be a minority in any country.
But instead of discussing calmly and logically what new politics can be introduced to solve these problems or what laws need to change, proponents of Identity politics instead try to make a single race the enemy.
When there are enemies, people unite. Political parties using this method will see themselves get votes if they manage to market themselves as the empathetic ones, even if the politics they impose do more evil than good in the long run.
Society is then split into a them vs us, while tribalistic infighting ensue. If you disagree with this method of classifying victims by their skin colour (when in fact so many things determine a person’s privilege, such as looks, height, family wealth, health, both parents around etc etc), you are automatically seen as racist and the bad guy.
Because nobody wants to seem morally corrupt or unsympathetic, they prop up this system.
Instill this sentiment into citizens long enough and resentment builds. The ones constantly told they are being oppressed will start seeing oppression everywhere. They won’t even try to succeed in life, because they are told they are so oppressed they can never make it. They believe their oppressors owe them.
Meanwhile, the majority race starts feeling angry at constantly being called oppressors. Or maybe they are poor and unhappy themselves, but see that resources for help are only made available for minorities but not them. If they were indeed racist before, this makes them even more racist.
What eventually happens is civil war. We cannot have this poison in Singapore.
Raeesah’s has apologised for her posts, but nobody needed to hear whether she is sorry she was being insensitive.
What people need to know is:
Does she still believe our courts are corrupt as she so insinuated? Does she still believe law enforcement unfairly target minorities? If not, what made her change her mind? Her statement does not address any of this.
Worker’s Party claim they did not see those posts of Raeesah’s. Fair enough. But I do not believe they have done such terrible vetting that they have not seen her tweet about Angela Davis which was so recent.
I wish to ask Raeesah Khan, DO YOU DISAVOW ANGELA DAVIS’ POLITICAL VIEWS?
- Do you believe that Singapore, through a brutal revolution and death, can become a communist utopia?
- Do you think that everyone in Singapore should not own private property and should have equal wealth, the very values communism epouses? If so, do you seek to redistribute your multi-millionaire dad's wealth to the poverty-stricken citizens of Singapore?
- Do you agree that it is only with violence and death do we achieve true freedom?
- Do you seek to abolish prisons in Singapore?
- Do you believe in the ideologies of Karl Marx, or Valdamir Lenin?
As for Worker’s Party, why did you field a candidate who holds extreme left-wing views?
Do you agree with her ideologies and think it aligns with yours? DO YOU ENDORSE THESE FAR LEFT VIEWS??
Please answer these questions. I write all these not because I am a PAP lackey, even though obviously people will say I am. Despite what you think, I believe it is healthy to have opposition seats in parliament.
However, I absolutely do not want to see candidates such as Raeesah Khan in our parliament - she brings with her dangerous political views that can topple the peaceful society we built over the years and is completely against everything that Singapore stands for. As it is, the mindless youth of Singapore are already echoing her dangerous ideologies.
I would rather any opposition joker win than her.

[Founders Who Want to Learn About the Marketing of Sharing on Social Channels]
If a founder feels marketing and content development is critical for startup success, what does your team need to be good at?
I read advice from marketing people about how to do marketing online. In a startup, I think a lot of this advice isn't relevant, because it assumes that founders have a product and a market fit, and that all they have to do is:
1. Have a message
2. Pay for distribution of this message.
In my opinion, this is useless. This assumes that you have a long history of owned media and a long history of product development.
As an early stage founder, you do not have these things. I would bet on it.
In early product development, your product development and your community development are interconnected.
Your product evolves and your community grows, if you are able to feed that community with content that enables them to give you feedback on your mission, your product and your goals.
Marketing, in this case, has a very different methodology than "paid advertising" or "content distribution."
Marketing in this case is more like sharing and linking to people, building a network. It is best done in social media channels, which are inherently bi-directional, interactive, and identity-focused.
In my opinion, the two things you should be helping your team achieve in this "marketing-as-a-sharing" activity are:
1. Finding ambassadors for your cause, and people who support your mission
2. Audience members who find your content compelling and can work as carriers of your content into other social channels
I keep this generally as two things, so that it's easier to group these ideas into general categories of action:
1. Talking to people and sharing with them ideas and their own stories and yours
2. Creating compelling content
If you can do these two things in social media, you can achieve:
1. Demographic, personality, and behavioral data about your community / customers
2. An increasingly expanding customer and audience base that builds these data in a network effect.
So, how do you do it?
Here are just three tips that will help you:
1. Learn to interview your audience, and write about them and link to them in your channels
2. Learn to take photos of your community and customers and post those pics on your social channels and link to them
3. Learn to look through data and figure out where and who is consuming that data so that you are able to push more content to those people, or find blank spots and blue ocean areas to develop more content.
Here is one example we did recently.
In LinkedIn, we posted updates about our experience with Techstars Startup Week in Taipei, and we tagged all the wonderful founders and people we met. We made sure to tag Alyssa Chen as one of the speakers.
That post is here: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6609976124141338624
This sharing did two things. It showed our respect and our belief in the strength of their founder community and the Taiwan community, and it also helped share our audience (and our audience's views of the market) with them so that they could learn more about us.
This same activity can happen in your own channels. Over time, it leads to reputation building and information sharing. It also grows the whole pie for everyone.
After all, being a founder is about being part of a community of people who help each other, share with each other and support each other through almost anything.
I will continue these tips in next week's post by using specific examples of how this can be done, so stay tuned.
For now, keep following us on Facebook, join us on LinkedIn, and check out our accelerator content on our web page.
