Truths about the recent Drama (Updated)
•
by Relorian
Please Note: All statements below are to the best of my knowledge Truth, no matter what others looking to boost their eRepublik reputations will say in the following days/weeks.
1. There was and is NO conspiracy.
Navy II and ChrisDF0 acted on their own accord. The Nationalist Party has had nothing to do with this. Many of us awoke this morning to find that ChrisDF0 had put up a proposal on his own, with no blessing or even a vote by the Nationalist party.
Kinda hard to plot out a conspiracy when most of us weren't around due to the holiday. Sadily, this logic escapes everyone who's recently released articles about how there was a conspiracy and how they told you so (Execpt nothing was said before, so its not even as if there were "Warnings").
2. Presidential Impeachement (Yet another claimed conspiracy)
Again, an Idea put forth by Navy and Chris... yet suddenly, because Nationalists have a majority, its the whole party who's going to get slandered. No one beyond those two know anything but that doesnt matter, Everyones guilty in the Kangaroo court of the media and the upper crust of eSingapore.
3. Racism/Xenophobia
Given the amount of PM's I've gotten and what I've seen in the press, you should all take a look in the mirror. There is a HUGE level of racism going on here. Instead of attempting to find out whos doing what and who planned what, its "Blame the outsiders" time. Instead of trying to go through things logically, again its "Blame anyone whos not RL Singaporian, they conspiring against our eNation".
Its truly pathetic the amount of Racist/Xenophobic PM's i've gotten (and have been reported, Enjoy the temp bans... You know who you are) and the newspaper articles that have been deleted by the admin in the past 24 hours. Please take a look in the mirror and remember, this is the eWorld. A world with no true nationality, a world thats supposed to be free of the kind of racism and xenophobia that are being lumped around this tiny one region nation because of two people and alot of ignorant naysayers.
If ExoM7 doesnt go back on his word, I'll finish the military project and then turn it over to what ever RL singaporian citizen he appoints to lead the military. I'll consider finishing out my term as a congressional member, though with the amount of Hate i've seen in the press and in PM's to me from various citizens (some of whom dont even LIVE in eSingapore) I am unsure what I will do. I'll consult Arbryn on that one as She brought me here and vouched for me.

I agree with Relorian. It is unfair to judge a whole party on the actions of a few. I know for a fact that Relorian had nothing to do with the controversial proposals. He is and always has been an upstanding citizen. I admire his courage and honesty. He has always been respectful of others so please show him the same courtesy.
great article.
Voted.
Voted....HARD
together lets try to clean this up...
voted and subed

I get it that you're getting this stuff, but it is odd how the public cries of racism have started right after the endorsement confirmation, no?
"The Nationalist Party has had nothing to do with this.

Well, it is true that some people have been "lumping" Navy, Chris and the entire party together in this scam incident. However, you have kind of been doing the same thing by calling all RL Singaporeans racist...
Voted.
Ice, I dont know if there is a clean up to it. Theres alot of racism and nationality running wild over this country and out of all the PM's i've gotten, none were bothering to ask if or what was going on, most were racist comments that now eSingapore would be run by RL Singapore citizens and that I better take my american behind out of this nation and never bother coming back. I had one that was so vile, when I reported it i marked it as Urgent and already got the user banned (Ironically, the user doesnt even live here and I've been told NOT to name names by the admin)
You know Exo and are AMERICAN in RL... just like you guys
I didnt say ALL RL Singaporians are racist Drifter, just a majority of the ones who have PM'd me both here and on IRC expressing how Americans have ruined their eNation. A bad apple ruins the bunch though.
Who did you get PMs from? If you can't quote them, we at least deserve to know why you're calling us all racist. I for one have never sent a single PM to you, or John, for that matter, except for perhaps talking to him to ask him to treat others more civilly... which he obviously has not heeded.
Additionally, from what you've said, they're not being racist, Relorian. You have people from all over the world who have bad experiences with American administrations; it's no wonder they'd be mad. Things like these boost nationalist sentiment in a nation, from which they'll be eager to overthrow what they consider the yoke of colonialism.
It's not a matter of RL Singapore and RL Americans then, isn't it? These people have a reason beyond the "race" (which, by the way, it's not. There is no Singaporean "race", and neither is American a race). I'm not saying the reason is justified, because most of you, prior to this, have been seen as upstanding members of society.
Basing your disgusting behaviour on the idea of a racism that does not even stem from within this country, though; that's just really childish.
Hear, hear!!
in fact in rl sg, we are a multi racial and religion, we are grow up from that environment. All of us are adapted in a multi racial and religion environment. This is what made sg different..
as for PMs, who are the people?
u can name some, like got "**" in the middle.
Wise article.
I'll take responsibility for jumping to some conclusions about the rest of the NP, and I appreciate your honesty.
It may not be racist, but it still is discriminatory and xenophobic.
And he only would get PM's from the haters, nobody who thinks "I have no problem with you for being an American" will PM him and tell him, so his sample size is entirely skewed. I am confident that most RL Singaporeans wouldn't say anything like that, but he hasn't heard from them.
Sample size indeed! His statistics is certainly wrong.
If one has no problem with his administration, one will not send a pm. It's only when one has problems with his administration that one might send such a pm.
I've been asked by the Admins to Not release names, I dont wish to get my account banned because I break my word with the admin team. They already have enough bans to hand out over the PM's I got in game and some of the news paper articles written yesterday in the heat of the moment.
At no point did I say ALL RL singaporians are racist. The ones I have encountered here, especially in the last 72 hours have shown themselves to be racist and xenophobic people who blame Americans for all their troubles, both Real World and E World.
The sad part is I had considered eSingapore my home, Now because of a few bad apples, I will more than likely be looking for a new eHome as I dont figure I can stay in a country that quite a few of its residents and quite a few of its non resident tamperers have made people like myself feel unwelcome.
Good article, wise words.
I liked this part
>this is the eWorld. A world with no true nationality, a world thats supposed to be free of the kind of racism and xenophobia
I for one am very disappointed at the behavior that occured over this past weekend. Very sad indeed. And quite frankly, I think that this all has been a slap in the face to JJ. He busted his butt to do a great job as president for this nation, and there has been no appreciation shown.
Well I believe once again the few corrupted the many, either directly or indirectly. I also think its fair to say that this happened on both sides of this fence as well, regardless of reasons. Both sides could have handled this better.
I'm sorry but how much BS is one person expected to take? JJ needs to be given a break because honestly he is reacting the way that any resonable person would if put in this situation. The behavior going on has been unacceptable and certain people should be ashamed of themselves for acting the way they have been.
JJ was once respected and appreciated by the people, but after this incident, I think nobody would look at him the same way again...
I'm grateful for all he has done, as many has repeatedly said more than enough times. But his actions over the past few days have been uncalled for.
Pot calling the kettle black there Teh You Jing... Pot calling the kettle black. You had just as much to do with the drama as everyone else, just your posts got deleted by the admins so we cant look back at them and see the endless drama and accusations you made.
If the countrys going to move forward, you need to drop your hatemongering.
