Mahathir and Paranoia

Mahathir is off spout­ing non­sense amongst some of his mostly slightly less non­sensical blog posts. I con­fess to the fact that I do not read any of his post­ings, because I am just not inter­ested in what he has to say. But this one was just too obvi­ously ludicrous to pass up.

Our Dear Misinformation Officer

You Have Blasphemed!

Here in good old Malay­sia, we have a thing against free speech. Sup­posedly, free speech comes with a respons­ib­il­ity not to say any­thing you like so you won’t hurt other people’s feel­ings.
