Woman deleted her LinkedIn account after backlash from her classist remarks about “HDB people”
A woman’s classist remarks on LinkedIn sparked backlash as she expressed the need to limit contact with “HDB people” (residents of public housing). Nadine, a law undergraduate, responded passionately, highlighting that homeownership is a unique culture for “HDB people” and dismissing the notion that they lack humanity. She emphasized the importance of respect for all individuals, regardless of societal standing. Another user criticized the woman’s elitist views and highlighted the contributions of Singapore’s laborers. The woman eventually took her LinkedIn profile offline due to the negative attention.
