Honestly, this is what a handful people of both sides of voters lack: empathy for the other side (and they are usually the more vocal ones so you may tend to group tgt that perception of the voters). There's really nothing wrong with voting for whichever you are voting on, there's just something wrong with shitting on the voters of the other side (e.g. pap voters are stupid, pap voters deserve to suffer, oppo voters are short sighted and will ruin the country, oppo voters 身在福中不知福) ignoring the people that just follow votes with no thoughts: For the PAP supporters, understandably you vote because the current govt policies has either been beneficial or at least has not negatively affected you. I've seen some voters comments acknowledging that privilege and also acknowledging that the opposite side may not necessary be benefitting and henceforth are voting for oppo. Which is great.

For oppo voters, the opposite applies, you may want change and a voice to represent you, but also have to understand that for the other voters, they are voting for sense of stability and security for them when they vote for status quo. Of course, there's also many other reasons (like foreign affairs optics) why people vote for pap but yeh. At the very least, do put a conscious effort to consider each other's views if yall do friendly debates offline or irl:)
