看到封面嚇到，經濟學人直接表明支持拜登

看著搖曳破敗的國旗，我想今年如果給美國一個關鍵字，大概是分裂 divided

一開始看這標我還在猜是編輯的心機
Why it has to be Joe Biden
因為這個不完整句有兩大方向的解讀法：
1. 為什麼應該支持拜登
2. 為什麼一定要是拜登出來選（才能跟川普抗衡）

讀完我確認是第一個意思，貨真價實的拉票文

我們來讀一段就知道我怎麼判斷

Joe Biden is not a miracle cure for what ails（致病） America. But he is a good man who would restore steadiness and civility（穩定與禮貌） to the White House. He is equipped to begin the long, difficult task of putting a fractured（崩裂的） country back together again. That is why, if we had a vote, it would go to Joe.

最後一句非常明確，假設語氣第二型，意思是經濟學人手上沒有票，但如果有票，會投拜登

-

這一段說美國面臨命運的抉擇，一邊是川普的乖張，一邊是「本報認為能夠向世界彰顯美國價值」的拜登：
In this election America faces a fateful choice. At stake is the nature of its democracy. One path leads to a fractious, personalised（經濟學人都用英式拼法） rule, dominated by a head of state who scorns decency and truth. The other leads to something better—something truer to what this newspaper sees as the values that originally made America an inspiration around the world.

「this newspaper sees 」很明白是刊物的立場

-

結論還是不免俗來個經濟學人很愛在提出預測之後補上的免責聲明：
In his first term, Mr Trump has been a destructive president. He would start his second affirmed in all his worst instincts. Mr Biden is his antithesis. Were he to be elected, success would not be guaranteed—how could it be? But he would enter the White House with the promise of the most precious gift that democracies can bestow: renewal.

經濟學人寫道：拜登是川普的對立面，不過誰能保證拜登一定會讓美國成功呢？但他會帶著民主最珍貴的禮物所承載的諾言進入白宮：更新

讀完這段免責結論我冒出滿多問號的 #你怎麼想？

我正在準備一個開票外電直播節目 敬請期待支持啦
到底會是開票日還是變成開票週甚至開票月
接下來的美國和太平洋此岸的我們會怎麼走呢
一起繼續看下去

疫情蔓延，沒有人能精準地預測未來會如何，若試著以「命題-對立-綜論」式討論法，探討這場瘟疫對社會與產業面所帶來的趨勢與變化：

🔴命題（Thesis）：疫情烏雲後的一線光明
一、自動化與遠距化的趨勢
二、零接觸與宅經濟生活
三、外語的重要
四、醫護設備與人員需求增加
五、產業版圖變化與新創的困境

🔴對立（Antithesis）：回歸人性
即使產業分析總是描畫一個美好的發展未來，但是人性與其他更多的因素就是會與前述的各種趨勢相牴觸衝突；但是從面臨巨變的人性中，也會產生新的產業商機。

🔴綜論（Synthesis）：結合人性的社會趨勢
未來產業與社會走向會結合人性與現行的風潮，甚至可能會同時出現完全相反的趨勢：越來越多的人會宅在家黏在手機電腦前，也有越來越多的人走向戶外與靈修，探索大自然與自己內心；甚至很多人會是「工作宅在家，下班往外跑」。

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.

The Joker is a fictional supervillain created by Bill Finger, Bob Kane, and Jerry Robinson who first appeared in the debut issue of the comic book Batman (April 25, 1940), published by DC Comics. Credit for the Joker's creation is disputed; Kane and Robinson claimed responsibility for the Joker's design, while acknowledging Finger's writing contribution. Although the Joker was planned to be killed off during his initial appearance, he was spared by editorial intervention, allowing the character to endure as the archenemy of the superhero Batman.

In his DCU comic book appearances, the Joker is portrayed as a criminal mastermind. Introduced as a psychopath with a warped, sadistic sense of humor, the character became a goofy prankster in the late 1950s in response to regulation by the Comics Code Authority, before returning to his darker roots during the early 1970s. As Batman's nemesis, the Joker has been part of the superhero's defining stories, including the murder of Jason Todd—the second Robin and Batman's ward—and the paralysis of one of Batman's allies, Barbara Gordon. The Joker has had various possible origin stories during his decades of appearances. The most common story involves him falling into a tank of chemical waste which bleaches his skin white, turns his hair green, and his lips bright red; the resulting disfigurement drives him insane. The antithesis of Batman in personality and appearance, the Joker is considered by critics to be his perfect adversary.

The Joker possesses no superhuman abilities, instead using his expertise in chemical engineering to develop poisonous or lethal concoctions, and thematic weaponry, including razor-tipped playing cards, deadly joy buzzers, and acid-spraying lapel flowers. The Joker sometimes works with other Gotham City supervillains such as the Penguin and Two-Face, and groups like the Injustice Gang and Injustice League, but these relationships often collapse due to the Joker's desire for unbridled chaos. The 1990s introduced a romantic interest for the Joker in his former psychiatrist, Harley Quinn, who becomes his villainous sidekick. Although his primary obsession is Batman, the Joker has also fought other heroes including Superman and Wonder Woman.

One of the most iconic characters in popular culture, the Joker has been listed among the greatest comic book villains and fictional characters ever created. The character's popularity has seen him appear on a variety of merchandise, such as clothing and collectable items, inspire real-world structures (such as theme park attractions), and be referenced in a number of media. The Joker has been adapted to serve as Batman's adversary in live-action, animated, and video game incarnations, including the 1960s Batman television series (played by Cesar Romero) and in film by Jack Nicholson in Batman (1989), Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight (2008), and Jared Leto in Suicide Squad (2016). Mark Hamill, Troy Baker, and others have provided the character's voice.
