Im spreading awareness on how not to be used by politicians. Im sure i have said in the past, i have become political advisors to some politicians in the past, 1 method that i always use is create controversy in the speech but the real message is hidden in between. Thats the basics of what politicians do during campaigning. Some daring ones will do some act. Same method is also used to distract from some more bigger issue.
For instance, u guys keep focusing on najib, the one that talks alot and create controversies. But while u guys are distracted with him, zahid silently manage to form a pact with pas, bring money to the party, strengthen his position in the party. All without any obstacles. Just smooth sailing for him. Thanks to u guys. See how u guys got played? I seldom comment on what najib said for that very reason. My eyes are more towards zahid.
To be a smart voter, my advice is that, try to differentiate what is a speech or statement to create a controversy and what is a real statement that the politicians want to say. Learn to read between the lines and also learn when not to read between the lines.
Thats up to u.
Politics is not a straightforward thing. Especially when it comes to seasoned politicians.
so politicians can pasang their own ppl create controversy, stir up trouble. We shouldnt react? that only works when the majority is educated not to be duped by cheap tactics. But do you overestimate the ability of the masses to be tactful? and to reason with scrutiny?
more often than not, masses are ignorant and moreso if they are not very exposed. They make easy targets, most people buy into something sensational, controversial, and their perceptions will be formed based on how the actors craft the message.
Leaving the stage to only be dominated by these actors and influence others. Are we srsly leaving it all to them? shd educated ppl remain silent and let people buy into the trend outta pure ignorance.
or are u gunna be that guy who tells them that they've been used and exploited by politicians. Make them aware like you said
and come on!! Zahid? being sneaky? lol pas and umno been trying to marry each other is an open secret! theres nothing sneaky about this. I know its going to happen, theyve been trying to play pretend like nobody knows but theyre not fool anyone.
