Two schoolgirls were caught trying to throw another girl off the roof in China…

Competition for women is getting less and less every day in academics because most of them are busy with GRWM reels, shaking booty on an item song and undressing themselves in Insta reels in trial rooms, flaunting their only talent (O)(O), while others are objectifying & sexualising themselves for content to gain like, followers & attention.

I miss Yahya Sinwar. I really do

The Singapore government is trying to block access to social media posts (some featuring videos, many in Chinese) warning citizens that their nation is being overrun by ethnic Indians. The content originated on China-based platforms such as Douyin, Rednote and TikTok. Singapore handles foreign information operations with unusual clarity and decisiveness. It identifies them early, then compels platforms to block the content so it never reaches Singaporean eyes. I remain skeptical that this game of censorship whack-a-mole can ever be fully won, but there is real value in ministers publicly naming the source and explaining exactly why these narratives are subversive. The narratives being peddled claim that Singapore’s multiracial model is just a “facade” to placate Western sensibilities, and that the country has really always been anchored by its Chinese-majority demographics. They assert that “Singapore’s culture is fundamentally Chinese,” and that the government’s decision to distance itself from Beijing while ignoring the “threat” of a growing Indian community will end in disaster. The videos portray the Chinese majority as under siege by an increasingly powerful Indian minority, including politicians. They single out President Tharman Shanmugaratnam, of Indian heritage, and warn that “curry concentration” (yes, really) is eroding Chinese cultural dominance. This coordinated push arrived immediately after Senior Minister Lee Hsien Loong’s recent viral remarks in China where he reminded Beijing that Singapore-China ties are based on “mutual benefit and shared interests, not ethnicity.” He drew a clear red line saying that Singapore is sovereign and not an overseas extension of the PRC. Chinese netizens and state-aligned voices reacted with indignation, framing it as ingratitude from “ethnic kin” who should show deference to the motherland. The subtext was clear: how dare Singapore prioritize its Indian, Malay, and other communities over blood-and-soil solidarity with the CCP? Connect the dots to Beijing’s broader information warfare against Israel, the United States, and others, and the pattern becomes clearer. Especially since Oct 7th, Beijing has weaponized antisemitism as a wedge issue. On its tightly censored platforms, state media and influencers have let Hitler memes, "Jews control America" conspiracies, and Nazi comparisons proliferate unchecked. This all has spilled out into global social media. What is the goal? Fracture the West, erode US-Israel ties, poison diaspora debates, sow domestic discord, and paint America's alliances as puppets of a shadowy cabal. It's created and amplified because it distracts, divides, and weakens the very coalition (MAGA) containing Chinese expansion. Now, apply this same lens to the sudden surge of anti-Indian content in Singapore and even in the US, particularly targeting tech circles. While organic frustrations (H-1B abuse, cultural friction) exist, the volume, timing, and precision point to deliberate seeding. Amplify resentment against Indian professionals and you damage the American-India tech alliance, the most credible long-term hedge against China dependence. It disrupts supply-chain diversification and poison talent pipelines in Silicon Valley. In Singapore, the same operation pits the Chinese majority against the Indian community, weakening society from within. This should be recognized for what it is: classic United Front work in the digital world. It's low-cost, high-impact subversion with plausible deniability. China doesn’t need naval fleets in the Strait of Malacca when it can export ethnic poison to fracture societies from within. A divided Singapore becomes a less reliable financial and technological anchor for US interests in Southeast Asia. A majority-Chinese Singapore riled up by Indian invasion narratives becomes more inclined to embrace the ethnic ties to the motherland and advocate for deepening Singapore's ties to the CCP. Likewise, a fractured US-India partnership keeps supply chains tethered to the PRC. Stoked antisemitism keeps the West chasing ghosts instead of confronting the primary challenge of our era. Western democracies cannot and should not copy Singapore’s blunt censorship model. But we must learn from its vigilance. We are all being targeted by sophisticated, state-driven influence campaigns designed to exploit our existing fault lines. Recognizing the playbook is the first step toward resisting it. The price of complacency is a more divided, weaker, and more easily manipulated world.

I made a cup of coffee and sat down to revise for my 4th year finals — and suddenly, everything came flooding back. The last two and a half years. The bombs. The hunger. The displacement. The fear. The hospitals under attack. The universities destroyed. The training hospitals damaged. The healthcare system collapsing. The academic system collapsing. My professors killed. My colleagues and friends gone. I was a medical student… and a volunteer in hospitals while bombs fell around us. I kept studying while starving. I kept attending lectures while displaced. I kept going while everything around me was falling apart. There were days I couldn’t breathe from the weight of it all. Days I was broken. Depressed. Exhausted. Convinced I couldn’t carry any more. But then the Gazan spirit appeared. The one thing they can never destroy. We grieve. We break. We fall. Then we rise — like a phoenix from the ashes. Against every possible condition, I did something I never thought I could. I survived. I continued. I endured. I didn’t give up. Today, I’m still here. Stronger. More determined. Still fighting for my future. Still fighting for my people. Still choosing hope, even in the darkest time. This is not just resilience. This is Gaza. This is the spirit of Gaza. This is our resistance through life. This is how we survive.
