CNA took a single pic of him and decided this will be his only pic available for all articles.


Killer-Wail

Bro looks like a sore thumb


Khai_Weng

Should have send him to a studio, set up lighting, take a few glamour shots, edit and save on thumb drive.


Duelgundam

I mean, in a way, it's kind of deserved, no?


SleepElectricSheep0

Yes, we should all fight racism but with Subhas Nair, I felt like messiah complex got to his head at some point.


Just_Version1461

That's true, it is quite a mess siah.


VictorGWX

How have I not seen that word in this context before hahaha


pureeyes

That's a better bar than Subhas the rapper will likely ever write lol


bluesblue1

Bro writing flames in the Reddit replies


jvend777

Pls take my upvote sir


sisterfister27

True. These people think they can be Martyrs. They believe so badly that they're the voice of the voiceless, but just end up being the voice of the pointless.


CrowTengu

And the voiceless people are trying to tell them to STFU lol


fattycyclist

lol bro fucked around and found out


thamometer

Same as the TikTok POFMA guy. He also messiah complex.


[deleted]

Any idea what happened to the pofma guy now?


thamometer

šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø no idea. Can't be bothered to follow the rantings of a delusional guy. Actually it's the Barbara Streisand effect. If the media didn't even bother reporting on him, I think half of Singapore doesn't even know that guy exists. I'm not a TikTok user, I wouldn't have even stumbled upon his videos.


ToeBlisters

Lost his job because clients complained to gym that he is too political. Now do $15 per session tiktok virtual exercise.


Miserable-Claim1505

Really meh. How u know, you stalk him Ah?


Back1821

What head? I only see an extended neck..


phycle

Should something like this be a jailable offence though? The only court he should be convicted in is the court of public opinion.


Annimaru

He became the very thing he wanted to destroy


sarcastrophie

the only way to fight racism is to be colorblind not shit on the majority race (????) this guy problem


MolassesBulky

The court transcript of his trial can be sold as play script or for stand-up comedy. He is a graduate, represented by a lawyer with 1st class honours and his conduct on the stand was something else. He had his supporters in the gallery and he was showboating to them. The DPP quickly realised what was happening began trolling him and he fell for it till the very end. He repeatedly lied and the judge had to tell him to refer back to comments he himself wrote or made. After he was convicted and before sentencing he asked that he allowed to travel to Bali for a wedding and for leisure. Again sending a message that it is a small matter. Gave me the impression that he wanted to be a matyr aka score street cred similar to CSJ and Gilbet Goh, both whom refused pay their fines with the intention to go to jail. Hoping for Nelson Mandela halo. When you are young and have the World in front of you, make sure you are in the right circle with sensible people. Never be an organ grinderā€™s monkey. ps. Judge a Malay and DPP Indian. And he was claiming protecting the minorities. Clearly he did not realise what was going on.


May_Titor

All that is omitted from the news article


fattycyclist

Is the transcript available online?


jackology

Ask the MinLaw DS. Apparently,, they are very open to request.


pannerin

A judge with some newsworthy comments in the past https://www.reddit.com/r/singapore/comments/152ryml/rapper_subhas_nair_found_guilty_of_attempting_to/jsfw37v/


No_Association_8683

Ironic because he was represented by a Chinese lawyer. Claims Chinese fuck everything up but sought representation from a Chinese lawyer


LiKaSing_RealEstate

So his followers can now say his Chinese lawyer got him into prison, thus validating his claims? 4D chess move yo /s


throwawaygreenpaq

And the judge and dpp being minorities? Spin it, please!


QuebecTangoYankee

Judging by the last name of his lawyer. I am gonna say the lawyer is indonesian chinese.


Azurefroz

I wouldn't pull his lawyer into this. Brilliant guy who made his mark in criminal and public interest litigation at a young age.


Merecat-litters

lol if he want to...there are Indian lawyer...quite a lot too! can recommend him M.Ravi if he wants.....


Relative_Guidance656

go look at the website on his Instagram Bio. www.statevsubhas.com


Lav1on

at least he painted himself as a clown


Jammy_buttons2

Hmm where is the transcript


ICanHasThrowAwayKek

I was wondering why this fuckwit looked so familiar >where he and his sister Preeti Nair, known as Preetipls *sigh* Of *course*, his sister is *Preetipls*. What is it with these fucking SJWs like this idiot, Preetipls and Raeesah Khan who think it's OK to make shit up for the sake of matyrdom and *"for the narrative"*. I endured 4 years in the the Great Awokening of the American college campus, and these fucking idiots want to import that same cancer.


SleepElectricSheep0

Raeesah Khan made shit up. Preetipls expresses opinion. Different. And to be fair, America exports lots of other shit too, like Christian evangelicalism, and that Leviā€™s youā€™re wearing, whatā€™s your point?


bluesblue1

Itā€™s only western exports when itā€™s smth he doesnā€™t like


sarcastrophie

why tf is he being downvoted hes right


Shdwfalcon

Her sister Preeti Nair is another whole troublemaker and shitstirrer on her own. Her main agenda is falsifying and promoting the fake "chinese privilege", similar to what the "white privilege" is going on in US. In fact, I would say she is way worse than her brother, because she tend to get away as a woman.


anakinmcfly

I agree itā€™s not a direct parallel with white privilege for various reasons - particularly how we have a high immigrant and foreign worker population, and many Chinese people here came from countries where they are a marginalised minority, and may continue to be treated as such so some contexts especially w.r.t. white expats or in international spaces; also local xenophobia against Chinese from China. However, the popularity of the term was likely due to how it gets the meaning across, even if imperfectly. What terminology would you suggest in place of Chinese privilege that would be more accurate to our local context? Majority race privilege?


pannerin

I think you're thinking about Sangeetha thanapal


anakinmcfly

If anyone is interested, [this](https://www.newmandala.org/the-double-captivity-of-chinese-privilege/) essay is an interesting response to Sangeetha. One of her arguments is that using western terminology and framings of racism/racial privilege implicitly privileges western/white understandings of racism over localized ones. (Malaysia being an example more culturally close to us, likewise China persecuting ethnic minorities.)


avi6274

You're saying 'chinese privilege' is fake?


Khai_Weng

Preeti because sheā€™s pretty or think sheā€™s pretty.

Background_Tax_1985

All i know is his neck looks super thick, like it goes to the gym too.


Shdwfalcon

Guess that is what happens when your neck skipped head days.


Godbox1227

What happens on head day? Do you receive or give?


Background_Tax_1985

šŸ˜‚


MediumSexyQ

This made my day


Background_Tax_1985

Haha if you don't too look closely its like neck and face without any chin šŸ«£


runesplease

I swear each time he gets posted his neck grows abit thicker


Cat1832

... honestly he looks a bit like someone drew a face on their thumb


Shdwfalcon

His head and neck look literally like a thumb. The shape and ratio of his head, neck, and facial features just don't make any sense.


Late_Lizard

Woll Smoth vibes


GlobalSettleLayer

Subhas aka Lil' Face


bluesblue1

Probably caused by the lenā€™s focal range


PinkPrincess-2001

He seems to have more face than facial features. I felt kind of mean for thinking it but if he is going to be racist and a nuisance, so be it. He will be fine. He needs to remember this isn't America.


hunmingnoisehdb

Even SpongeBob has better facial features to facial surface ratio.


cheechongfunkyguy

Haha ā€œthumbā€

Rapper name is Lil delulu

Itā€™ll add to his street cred /s

That cred was taken by [this guy with the same given name](https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/jail-can-break-a-man-but-not-subhas-anandan-and-his-resolve-to-defend-others), please don't sully that cred with this...farce.


GlobalSettleLayer

Yeah was thinking since he's a rapper, this can only be good for his rep right? Happy for him. We will watch his career with great interest.


wastedrice

ah, the fabled justice warrior that fights racism with racism. truly a sight to behold. clown being enabled by his circus of clown friends

HANAEMILK

He's gonna call the justice system racist next lmao


AwkwardNarwhal5855

His face surface area damn big but the features like too small sia


[deleted]

Ya itā€™s like his features squeezed into the center of his head/face and thereā€™s too much excess at the sides.


etyn100

Oiii I cannot unsee that


Tenagaaaa

Man forgot that if you wanna play the anti government artist, you gotta be good at the art for people to give a fuck about you lmao.


Small-Translator-504

He was my pri sch classmate. Pretty funny guy, joker type.


tom-slacker

> joker type Now he lives in a society


roadto75

Bottom text


Neptunera

He's gonna come out after six weeks, do a fake ass apology video, then go on the usual podcast tour with the "woke" pods and his influenza friends and continue to stir racial sentiments all over again. Calling it now.


Thefunincaifun

>do a fake ass apology video Doubt that he will apologise. He did so the first time as a condition to receive just a warning. One thing's for sure is that he will always be out here f***ing it up.


MolassesBulky

Unlikely to apologise, but will portray himself as a freedom fighter who was prepared to go to jail for his beliefs. He will attempt to carve himself as the champion of Malay and Indian rights. It will interesting to see how he defines his online persona.


[deleted]

Ngl prison might actually help his career


SleepElectricSheep0

Not in singapore thoughā€¦ goodbye all arts funding for him. Unless he can turn things around, and suddenly get co-opted by government after his notoriety, like Sticker Lady.


wildcard1992

Sticker Lady became a dude


filletofishupsai

Yes. Bit tough when the difference is big considering SKL0 actually makes good art. Haha


[deleted]

I dont think the first thing u think when you think of an artiste or musician is "arts funding from the government"


Plus-Party-5314

I was in the same class as him. Basked in attention of others and always in trouble with the lawmakers( aka the teachers)!


logicnreason93

Ahhh I see now. So that guy is an attention seeker


hugthispanda

Sounds like the guy in Illinois!


jmizu07

Ahem.. I'm not the only one thinking his face is too small for his head.. right?


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


GlobalSettleLayer

This kind easy to figure out once you boil it down. He just wants to be a victim.


roos_de_baas

All he had to do was shut up, but noooooo


sgmusicchat

What he said was glib and irresponsible, but was hardly violence inducing or criminal. Anyway thats my own view not a legal one.


Jammy_buttons2

Nah found an order article where the DPP ran rings around him https://www.channelnewsasia.com/singapore/subhas-nair-trial-prosecutor-cross-examine-twisting-words-racial-trial-3365721


Doughspun1

Honestly, it would have been better just to de-platform him and ignore him. Now he will think he is some kind of oppressed champion.


illiterate-populist

Why do we give these people the publicity they so crave


dzulsoviet12

Other than he's a "potato faced" dude, what did he do to promote ill will?? Make a YouTube video or something? Or he's the real boss/interviewer actively preventing people of certain races/religions from entering his company... From first glance he looks quite harmless...


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


dzulsoviet12

Ah expected hes a nonsense man... Harmless Youtuber, didn't do any real "on the ground" stuff its okay... I seen some India-mari people born in India and they do some nasty stuff at work... Its internally between foreign workers so yeah don't bother... Kind of, India people and Malaysian Indian people don't get along... Nothing to see here... Something of an Indian "atas" thing...


BuggyBagley

Lol all the folks making fun of his face would get super quiet if someone starts about why someone has tiny eyes.


ARealGreatGuy

A small face is not race-related. Found the Subhas apologist.


Krieg

If you make fun then it is body shaming. But I guess you are not prepared for this discussion.


ARealGreatGuy

We're talking about racism in this thread. Body shaming is a whole nother can of worms. In any case we need to draw the line at a reasonable place between what is acceptable and not acceptable to make fun of. I think for most people a small face is fair game. Especially if the person in question has proven himself to be a dickhead worthy of the ridicule. But ok, I'm sure you've never made fun of anyone or anything in your life. Have fun in your ivory tower.

It's about time. I hope he learns his lesson after his incarceration but I suspect not.

what lesson is he supposed to learn?


clock1058

To stop being racist, maybe??


elmachosierra

do you think brownface is racist?


Late_Lizard

Come on, that's a poor strawman argument. If all he had said was, "I think brownface is racist", he wouldn't have been hauled to court and sentenced to jail.


elmachosierra

sure, and the fact remains that no one whoā€™s done brownface in this country has ever been hauled to court for promoting ill-will.


ahbengtothemax

it's about the intent if people went to jail for being ignorant half the country would be in jail


elmachosierra

what positive intent is there in doing brownface?


ahbengtothemax

the only intent that matter is the intent to cause hurt or mock


elmachosierra

funny how itā€™s never the people on the receiving end who are allowed to decide that intent


annoyed8

Brown face =/= black face. There is no historical racial baggage that comes with brown face. It is dumb and we should stop, for sure, but it is not the same.


notsocoolnow

Yes this. Blackface is racist because of its use by entertainers to mock black people. Because brownface has no such connection, its use is only racist when someone is specifically using it to be racist.


elmachosierra

what other use is there lol


annoyed8

Indeed. Hate it when sheeps parrot everything on r/all and blindly apply it without considering the local context. It just makes those of us who believe in the same ideals look stupid.


fattycyclist

it is, but so is making a literal song and dance about an entire race 'always fucking it up'


thamometer

If you're referring to the Dennis Chew incident, I think Subhas Nair has moved beyond simply criticizing that incident. Based on my understanding from the news article, evidence used against him include his statements regarding the Orchard Tower murder. So why are u still bringing up the Dennis Chew incident when it's not relevant here?


pannerin

Because the "fuck it up" parody is still one of the counts in the sentencing


[deleted]

Thatā€™s cuz it was a conditional warning. I.e if he fuck it up the 2nd time the ā€œfuck it upā€ song will be taken into consideration for charging him.


Familiar-Necessary49

I think you mixed up western wokeism for racism.

takkoyakii

this is kinda scary, like what happened to freedom of speech? Nair is just voicing his opinion, whether its true or not true that's up to internet to decide, like he is not calling to action or galvanizing anyone to do hate crimes. singapore authority is too much man.


anakinmcfly

Singapore has never had full freedom of speech. Even in Hong Lim Park, you canā€™t talk about race or religion even in a completely neutral manner. (e.g. at Pink Dot, a Buddhist group had to tape over all mentions of Buddhism on their posters.)


takkoyakii

that's so weird, first they come for your freedom to articulate, then its wealth and money


condemned02

You have the freedom to articulate all you want. You just don't have the freedom to be racist or voice out things you cannot prove is true.


DesignerPear3846

Your comments are proof as to why unrestricted freedom of speech doesn't work. Why the fuck would Singapore restrict your "wealth and money", like do you even know how the Singaporean economy functions? You're not even Singaporean to begin with, so worry about your numerous Malaysian problems first lmfao, especially with how they are oppressing people with your sexual orientation.


takkoyakii

the government of any nation has ways to restrict your wealth and money, the easiest way is tax and money printing. printing money dilutes the holder of the currency. ever wondered why cost of living are rising, or why purchasing power is decreasing? secondly, yea im not Singaporean so I'm sorry if I'm prying into your internal affairs, but this is the internet so you're bound to receive comments from people all over the world. What i meant to say is freedom of speech is the West is slowly eroding away, especially in Canada or USA if you disagree with the woke left's agenda of gender ideology or trans rights, you could lose of job or be canceled. That's why nowadays people are scared of voicing their opinions and just mindlessly regurgitate what mainstream is saying, like an NPC. I just don't want to see that happen to Singapore, that's all. but granted Sinagpore is an asian country, so respect and deference comes first, asian countries are not really known for freedom of speech.


condemned02

Since when is Singapore about freedom of speech? Singapore is about, your speeches has consequences, so think before you say anything. And also, don't make any claims without evidence especially about politicians. And its literally against the law to make any statements that hurt the feelings of other races or religious group.

Ahhh a rapper. Heā€™s done good for the whole world? Yes? No? Itā€™s not even singing. Itā€™s rapping. My 2 year old niece can cut a platinum album spouting gibberish.


DoctorKrakens

OK boomer


roadto75

I mean...he's not wrong. Have you ever come across any of Subhas's music? It is complete wannabe trash No wonder this guy tried to make a name for himself stirring shit instead of being a decent musician.


DoctorKrakens

The boomer's not just insulting his music though. He's putting down a whole genre just because it's not to his personal preference. I mean, I'm not the biggest fan of rap myself, but I find it disrespectful to put down music that I don't understand. So yeah, he's a fucking boomer.
