We are grateful as Singaporeans to have a governing system that emphasize moral and integrity, caring and fair to all in Singapore regardless of race, language or religion. Thank you PM Lee KY and PM Lee SL !!!
@@arieladelinechoo9845 *Then you better learn what 'Woke' actually means.* Not some nonsense right-wing media peddle. To think our former PM regurgitate foreign media propaganda... utterly shameful. I gather you are an easy mark as well.
Woke has lost all meaning and it even isn't the same in definition. All it seems to refer to is non conservative values. Whi h funny enough woke has been used predominantly by the right and rarely used by the left to refer to themselves. The left use terns as progressive, liberal, open minded, etc.
@hopeintruth5119 wrong. It took me 3 seconds to research it. The Oxford English Dictionary traces the earliest such usage to a 1962 New York Times Magazine article titled "If You're Woke You Dig It" by African-American novelist William Melvin Kelley, describing the appropriation of black slang by white beatniks.
The term woke has been appropriated by the right. It was originally a term used by black people who could see that there are still prejudices against blacks from whites in this day and age. Even Lee Hsien Loong is not using the term by its original definition here, just it’s twisted form. And yes I agree with Lee Hsien Loong, “wokeness” has gone too far. And I’m not an right winger, I’m more of a centrist if anything.

This gentleman is correct! I will always be aware and awake! Never, will I be WOKE! I'm a Gen X kid at heart. We grew up without safe spaces, weren't coddled, raised ourselves, and knew we had to work for everything. Nothing was free! I raised my Millenial son the same way. When he went off to college, he was slowly indoctrinated into thinking men could be women and women could become men. His almost 1 year old son is being raised as a they/them, and has a gender neutral name. He no longer speaks to me, nor sends any pictures of my only grandson I'll ever have. His mate is 100% female and carried that child. She goes by a male name and demands to be called he and has a male name. I'm Christian, conservative and always have been. My son knows this. I never thought I would be told, "He is pregnant." The Western hemisphere has lost its mind!
Wisdom of the East so well articulated. May the east keep upholding core values to lead our society into creating a peaceful world that is well balanced with culture, traditions and advancement of technology.
Wokism has been used outside its original usage, and conservatives have taken it to mean everything not conservative. Woke was used by black Americans to be aware of racist Injustice and some how landed onto conservative to replace sjw or PC culture
No it's not! It's the newest word right-wingers turn into a pejorative so they can masked their prejudice and discrimination. (Oh we are not racist, sexist, anti-lgbtq etc. we are just "anti-woke".) I guess when you have multi-billion media empires, you can turn any word into a slur.
I feel like we want "progressiveness" rather than "wokeness". We need to respect others, yes, but perhaps the number of standards may need to be taken into consideration. In fact, the bar can be set at baseline tolerance, acceptance and inclusion, and the people still won't be too insecure without you having to go above and beyond.
Exactly, there's a degree of "reasonableness" that is necessary, but quite honestly most people are reasonable, it is the few that shout the loudest that are not. I've only met a few that are actually like this, and even less that are militant about it.
This is ridiculous, 'wokeness' became a pejorative because right-wing media use it as such. So they can be 'anti-woke' instead of whichever prejudice they hold. Why should they get to set the narrative? We Singaporeans should strife to be woke and progressive. Woke is progressive. You can't be one without the other.
Typical down-to-earth, practical answer from a great leader of a great nation. Singaporeans so rarely deal in nonsense. So happy I live here and can speak almost more freely than in the west. How’s that for irony?
People want to feel empowered and self-esteem by having cancel culture. Some cannot be grateful for living without having kind of shared enemies of the group.
As a Dutchman I can say that he is 200% right. The worst thing is is that our govt actively supports all of it. People worry about petty issues such as 'pronouns' and 'not offending' or 'indirectly offending' others while forgetting about the real issues. They feel that having a 'victim' identity gives their life a purpose and right to make trouble on the streets. Wokeness tears our society (and much else of the West) apart. Luckily not everyone goes along with it.
In other words wokeness is extreme left wing which can be disgusting to opposite spectrum. Singapore and East Asia (Japan, Korea) in general are ruled by extreme right wing, China’s Xi is going right wing. Europe and the West embrace left wing politics which is very close to communism (Fairness in society).
Thank you PM Lee for being sensible and wise and not going in the direction of depravity, aka wokeness, unlike cackling Kamala Harris who wants all Americans to be woke. Woke = depravity
The problems with Westerners are a lot but not all of them are too busybody. Lecturing others...but they don't examine their own behaviour & beliefs...😅
The man talks absolute sense and his views are generally echoed throughout Eurasia/Asia. The sickness of deranged woke ideology mostly occurs in western Europe and North America sadly.
Extreme sensitivity is burdensome. Why? Because that requires putting in more effort than one is used to, especially when one does not stand to benefit from the situation with that extra effort. It really depends on what one's agenda is.
This is true for more than just “Woke” culture. I think social media has exacerbated this issue a lot, because you get content recommendations that already agree with your point of view to encourage your engagement- ex if you start having “woke views” you get recommended RUclips channels that share that way of thinking, and you go into a self reinforcing loop. People that are extremely conservative experience the same. So later it becomes harder for both groups to understand each other, because their perception of reality is warped by what they consume- the woke feels apocalypse is coming whenever someone mentions republicans, the conservative feels attacked when anyone mentions anything about gender, both groups become almost a parody of themselves. The only REAL solution is to force yourself to interact with people from different cultures and ways of life in REAL LIFE. We might not agree on everything but we all have things we share. Ex I’m not even American, but I love American comics, I’m sure there’s plenty of woke and conservative Americans that love them too so cool, there we have something to bond about…

It’s burdensome because you’ll never leave the house or do anything for yourself.
This is true for more than just “Woke” culture. I think social media has exacerbated this issue a lot, because you get content recommendations that already agree with your point of view to encourage your engagement- ex if you start having “woke views” you get recommended RUclips channels that share that way of thinking, and you go into a self reinforcing loop. People that are extremely conservative experience the same. So later it becomes harder for both groups to understand each other, because their perception of reality is warped by what they consume- the woke feels apocalypse is coming whenever someone mentions republicans, the conservative feels attacked when anyone mentions anything about gender, both groups become almost a parody of themselves.
The only REAL solution is to force yourself to interact with people from different cultures and ways of life in REAL LIFE. We might not agree on everything but we all have things we share.
