January 21, 2021January 22, 2021 benign0 4 Comments

The latest flypaper “issue” currently keeping Yellowtards’ mouths flapping is a video featuring a spat between CNN tele-“journalist” Pinky Webb and Malacanang spokesman Harry Roque who she was interviewing. Webb was eliciting a reaction from Roque to a tweet fielded by University of the Philippines (UP) “journalism” professor Danilo Arao where he issues a challenge…

Twitter shut down @realDonaldTrump, so it should also shut down the CPP-NPA’s @prwc_info account

January 9, 2021January 9, 2021 benign0 3 Comments

Only fair, right? The basis of Twitter recently shutting down the account of United States president Donald Trump is “due to the risk of further incitement of violence” that it presumably exposes the American public to. Twitter references its policy on the nature of such behaviour and the actions it holds prerogative to take on…

Should Twitter and Facebook block Donald Trump?

January 7, 2021January 7, 2021 benign0 2 Comments

That question needs to be answered within the context of whether or not people who continue to listen to outgoing United States president Donald Trump and even heed his public calls actually have a collective grievance that needs to be responded to. As it stands, it is likely that blocking Trump would be the equivalent…

Only stupid people watch Pinoy Big Brother

December 28, 2020December 28, 2020 benign0 5 Comments

It’s curious how, on one hand, the wokedom of ABS-CBN supporters and fandoms get all their panties twisted over toxicity and “gaslighting” and, on another, are all agush over the artificial goings-on in a reality TV show like Pinoy Big Brother. PBB is cheap entertainment. It suckers young people who are starved for attention into…

Rather than report the news, Rappler makes ITSELF the news

December 27, 2020December 27, 2020 benign0 2 Comments

Rappler “journalist” Nick Villavecer’s “report” where he sings praises to his own CEO Maria Ressa — a shareholder of his employer — is dishonest journalism because it is a blatant conflict of interest. In his piece “Attacks and harassment: Women journalists in the Philippines on the cost of truth-telling”, Villavecer cites a number of women…

New Year’s resolution for Yellowtards and Reds: Stop HATING Duterte supporters

December 26, 2020 benign0 3 Comments

The year 2021 is an important year. This is because the campaign for the 2022 national elections will transpire over the greater part of this year. As such, an important resolution needs to be made by the Philippine Opposition if they truly aspire to legally seize power in 2022. They must stop hating their enemies…

Use of face shields in the Philippines is an OA overreaction

December 19, 2020 benign0 4 Comments

Is it just me, or does anyone else think that the excessive use and prescription of face shields in the Philippines is just another one of those shrill overreactions propagated on the back of the speculation coming from the lockdown-idled minds of millennial “influencers”? COVID-19 is unprecedented in its place in human history as a…

Satire piece on Opposition senatoriables for 2022 enrage Frank Baraan and Kakie Pangilinan

November 22, 2020 benign0 2 Comments

It was supposed to be just a satirical post — popular blog Adobo Chronicles being, after all, a satire channel. In its piece “Siete palabras: LIBERAL PARTY ANNOUNCES 2022 SENATORIAL LINE-UP” published Saturday, the Chronicles “announced” a “Magic Seven” slate consisting of top Opposition social media “thought leaders”… The magic seven are ABS-CBN actress Angel…
