    Good points, but why, because he sees himself as white or different from darker people (such as black people)? Or that he sees himself as an indigenous Singaporean and fears of being replaced too? Ironic, as his position is similar to that of the white population in New Zealand, neither are indigenous.

      Not to detract from your point but indigenous Singaporeans are of Malay descent whereas the guy here is of Chinese descent.

        Yes, as I mentioned, it is similar to that of white people in New Zealand, neither they nor him are indigenous, yet the argument was used by the Christchurch attacker.
