3 Things That The “Fast Forward” Campaign Video Says About Mar Roxas

Posted on December 10, 2015 By Grimwald 6 Comments on 3 Things That The “Fast Forward” Campaign Video Says About Mar Roxas
3 Things That The “Fast Forward” Campaign Video Says About Mar Roxas

I’ve halved my bottle of whisky since I started and I’ve finished the entire Human Centipede trilogy but, unfortunately, I still can’t get the “Fast Forward” campaign video out of my head. My world has already begun to spin and blur but just about every detail of the accursed video stubbornly sticks to my memory. After finishing…

5 Ways That Mar Roxas’ Campaign Video “Fast Forward” Insults The Common Filipino

They say that “curiosity kills a cat”. Well, the thing is, I’m not a cat. If I am any kind of animal, I’d probably be a snake of some kind, perhaps a sidewinder. Anyway, after watching Mar Roxas’ campaign video called “Fast Forward” and reading Benign0’s article about it, I somehow found myself still alive….

How Our Laziness Contributes To The Destruction Of Our Country

Before I begin, let it be known that I am also quite a slacker. Indeed, I suppose just about everyone feels lazy every now and again. Unfortunately, as individuals, we take simple “laziness” to a whole new level. It’s one thing to slack off at work every now and again, but it’s something else entirely…

Idolatry And Fanaticism In The Philippines: The Cycle Of Disaster Continues

Idolatry And Fanaticism In The Philippines: The Cycle Of Disaster Continues

Before I begin my formal rant, for a given value of the word “formal”, let me say a few bits from the Bible. The following are actually events taken from the book of Exodus translated to modern format and interpreted by me. However, before I go on, let me tell you that I am not…

A Deadly Cocktail of Religion and Politics in the Philippines

Posted on December 5, 2015December 5, 2015 By Jelen 52 Comments on A Deadly Cocktail of Religion and Politics in the Philippines
A Deadly Cocktail of Religion and Politics in the Philippines

The Philippines is a nation of people who would describe themselves as “God fearing”; where their lives revolve around entrusting everything to God. 80% of the population consists of Roman Catholics. This is also a nation where the phrase “malling” exists as a hobby since Filipinos just love to spend their spare time hanging out in…

Demanding Change Without Changing Oneself Won’t Change Anything

Posted on December 4, 2015 By Grimwald 12 Comments on Demanding Change Without Changing Oneself Won’t Change Anything
Demanding Change Without Changing Oneself Won’t Change Anything

First, let’s begin with a story from my 4th grade teacher… There was this kid who saw how bad and ugly the world was and prayed: “Lord, please change the world so that everyone can be happy!” Unfortunately, nothing happened. When the kid became a teen, he saw how terrible the state of his country was so he…

Duterte’s dangerous experiment: Vigilantism as state-sanctioned doctrine

Duterte’s dangerous experiment: Vigilantism as state-sanctioned doctrine

We all have bad experiences dealing with other people. Some of those experiences make us wish we could just take a gun and shoot whoever had caused those bad experiences. But we don’t because there are also consequences for doing so. Perhaps in the case of the Philippines, presidential candidate Rodrigo Duterte and what he’s…

Dutertards need to win over the Manila vote by being a bit classier

Dutertards need to win over the Manila vote by being a bit classier

I don’t like starting my articles with the caveat “Don’t get me wrong, but…”. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what everybody did in my last article. So here’s the thing (and I hope all you ‘tards turn on your comprehension faculties for a change): I have no problem with Duterte and, really, I don’t mind him becoming…
