514 Chai Chee Lane 03-16, Singapore 469029 Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said during last Friday's Chinese daily Lianhe Zaobao's 90th anniversary celebrations that the online world has been overrun by abusive trolls.
He was quoted as saying: "We must fight back against trolling, and provide a safe, responsible online environment which promotes constructive participation."
He also said: “Satisfied people don’t have time to go onto the Internet. Unhappy people often go there.”
However, within one day, he was proven wrong.
In what is by far her most honest Facebook post to date, Nicole Seah, the 27-year-old politician, wrote on Nov. 23 about how 2013 is her worst year ever as she suffered a post-2011 General Election meltdown.
She candidly revealed aspects of her personal life that until this point, no one could conceivably imagine someone in politics to divulge.
In response -- and far from engaging in trolling or unleashing a torrent of abuse -- the Internet turned into a mushy puddle of goo, love and support, embracing Nicole and telling her everything is going to be alright.
So much for the legendary angst-ridden, anarchic, blood-baying online mob.
Here are the uncensored examples of the uber affection and tooth-aching-diabetes-inducing saccharine encouragement the Internet can shower on a total stranger:

This list could seriously go on like forever, but you get the point: The Internet is good for trolling -- and so much more.
You can count on your fellow Singaporeans, PM Lee, because faith in humanity is restored.
