Filipinos’ little experiment with Western liberalism has failed

September 3, 2019September 3, 2019 benign0 5 Comments

The writing’s on the wall. University campus “activism” in the Philippines has been discredited thanks to communist infiltration. An entire Opposition slate working off a hopelessly incoherent “liberal” platform suffered a catastrophic loss in this year’s elections. Holdovers of the 1986 “people power” revolution have been reduced to a laughingstock. And a shrill bid to…

Red Alert! The Inquirer puts up COMMUNIST women as “representives” of Filipino women, youth, students, and journalists!

August 28, 2019 benign0 12 Comments

Has anyone noticed that commie “activists” have never denied their links to the terrorist New People’s Army? That’s because they can’t. They’ve already lied enough to Filipinos over the last century, but the silence that surrounds their links to the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) and its terrorist arm, the New People’s Army (NPA)…

Genuine Filipino “activists” need to distance themselves from COMMUNISTS and their “New People’s Army”

August 16, 2019August 16, 2019 benign0 3 Comments

In the age of social media, perception is everything. From this reality, the Philippines’ campus “activists” have been on the run. Rather than step up to the challenge of facing and correcting any perceptions about them they believe are wrong, they are instead digging their heels in and doing the same thing. It’s a form…

Communist fronts like the League of Filipino Students believe they are God’s Gift to Filipino nationalism

August 12, 2019 benign0 9 Comments

Kabataan Partylist Representative Sarah Elago has it all wrong. What Filipino “nationalists” believe to be things that make a great nation are all obsolete. If we are to believe people like Elago, one would think “activism” is such a be-all-end-all of the people of a modern nation. A statement posted by the League of Filipino…

Filipino kids should learn politics from QUALIFIED people and not from street “activists”

August 11, 2019 benign0 1 Comment

Would any sensible parent encourage their kids to learn about sex on the streets from other kids? Certainly not. Why then would they allow their kids to learn most of their politics from street “activists”? This is the question Filipino parents need to ask themselves and the school authorities to whom they have entrusted their…

A nice Artificial Intelligence project: ASKLENI.COM or LENIBOT.COM

June 27, 2019 benign0 6 Comments

I realised recently that the domains AskLeni.com and LeniBot.com are available for the taking as of this writing. There’s an idea right there for an interesting project or thesis for Computer Science students — building an artificial intelligence (AI) that can generate Leni-speak. The AI could work off a digitised body of public statements from…

True or False: Filipinos are not stupid, they just need more money

January 29, 2019 zaxx 25 Comments

The statement may sound like the Philippine equivalent of the African expression “Africa is not poor, it is only poorly managed.” Many onion-skinned Pinoy-pride crybabies out there will find this highly offensive, as if some innocent girl flashed the Nazi swastika emblem in Thailand. But before taking your protest to the streets, just ask yourselves:…

Duterte quip about maid reflects widespread abuse servants cop in Filipino households

December 31, 2018 benign0 21 Comments

I’m not here to make excuses for a head of state making light of possible abuse of household help in his youth. That’s just not on. Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte should really put a stop to making comments like that as it only makes him less effective as a leader. At the same time, however,…
