Most Singaporeans who posted about BLM are also the same group of xenophobic assholes who cannot tolerate foreigners in SG. They are all supportive about justice around the world but when it comes to building dorms for FW, they adopt the 'NIMBY' (not in my backyard) mentality.
On one hand they scream "Black Lives Matter", on the other hand FW are to them dirty, smelly, disgusting. Oh, they are also the same group who criticised G for packing FW into small dorm rooms across the island and demanded the G to build better facilities for them. And then when G says want to build at certain areas, NIMBY again.
In terms of social equality, we are definitely on better footing than the US. We are fortunate that systemic racism isn't big here (though not nonexistent). But candid racism still exists. Yea, chinese will say "it wasn't intend to hurt or harm; it was a joke; etc" but that's still racist. I frown upon my so-called friends when they outwardly say "yea, I very racist one" and be xenophobic towards foreigners.
I, of the majority race, cannot share experiences of candid racism hence I cannot tell you how hurtful such discrimination felt.
More important thing is, the FW don't want citizen rights. Most of them didn't want to stay here if not for the money they can send back home to feed their families. All they want is to be treated with dignity and respect. But many SGreans fail to even do that. And as they scream "Black Lives Matter", I think they are just bunch of hypocrites.
