Go Piss, Girl: The plight of the public potty

Singapore is just further evidence of my statements being true.

They also brutally enforce social norms and anti-drug policy, and in 2025 they had a total of 35K people granted permanent residency (in a country of 6M people).

In Singapore you're confusing temporary foreign workers with true immigration. In fact Singapore is an extremely low immigration country.

None of these foreign workers qualify for Singapore's public housing or healthcare for example.

I'm pro immigration and left-leaning, but I don't disagree with the right wingers that ethnic homogeneity leads to higher social trust (many studies have demonstrated this). I prefer having immigration though.

> Also, imo Singapore is just further evidence of my statements being true.

Not anything to do with race it isn’t. It’s a direct contradiction to your claims.

By ethnic groups according to Wikipedia it’s 75% Chinese. The UK is 81% white according to Wikipedia. US at 61% white. Spain is 85% “Spaniard”. (I’m just picking the dominant group)

Are you willing to say the United States is much more racially diverse than these countries? How would you then assess the political systems in comparison?

I think you might’ve misunderstood my point or replied to the wrong person.

Sure could you clarify your point then?

I don’t see anything in my original comment that was unclear.

Ok in that case I just assume my point applies

You didn’t make a point. You asked a question. If there was a point, it was not apparent.

Ok then it was just a general question without any point. Others can read and intuit what they would like.
