Here is why President Rodrigo Duterte can legally kill criminals in the Philippines

The cornerstone of presidential candidate and former Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte’s campaign is a promise to curb galloping national crime rates that have left Filipinos gripped by fear. According to Duterte, his presidential term will be “bloody”, presumably said blood spilt when he makes good on his promise to kill criminals. How exactly is…

Yolanda Crisis 2013: Marvel, DCU, Capcom, SNK & MK vs. LP

Note: Ladies and gentlemen, this is another spoof article by yours truly, Thaddeus Grimwald. “Spoof” means it’s not real. It’s just a joke, pure and simple. It’s more or less a parody of the latest propaganda comic created by the LP to support their presidential candidate Mar Roxas as highlighted here by our webmaster Benign0. If…

Insane Mar Roxas comic book proves he is the true historical revisionist

Interesting that lobbing charges of “historical revisionism” upon vice presidential candidate Bongbong Marcos has become a popular fashion statement amongst pro-administration “activists”. Leading the charge is the faculty of the Ateneo de Manila University which recently thrust the esteemed Jesuit-run institution of learning into the partisan fray after 400 of its members signed a statement…

3 Big Reasons ‘Tuwid Na Daan’ Will Probably Win The 2016 Election Anyway

There was quite a bit of excitement over the second presidential debates not long ago. Indeed, I found it both fun and thought-provoking how some of the candidates, namely Rodrigo Duterte and Grace Poe, jostled against one another’s intellect and wit. It was also quite amusing and somewhat sad to see Jejomar Binay insisting that…

The Pinoy Hype For Captain America: Civil War And Why I’m Disappointed By It

“Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.” ~Eleanor Roosevelt 2016 sure has quite a bit to show us with a huge lineup of superhero films. So far, we got a taste of Deadpool in February and we can only expect more with other titles like X-Men: Apocalypse and Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice. More importantly…

Daang Matuwid: A slogan and legacy worthy of its president’s initials

I believe it was a quote by the late George Carlin that articulates it best: “I think Americans really show their ignorance when they say they want their politicians to be honest. What are these fuckin’ cretins talking about? If honesty were suddenly introduced into American life, the whole system would collapse!” He might as…

If his words and writings are to be taken into account, having a culture centered around wisdom contributes to making one a productive part of society and, by extension, improving and strengthening a nation…

The Tagalog language consists of words that hardly mean anything of substance

Tagalog is a derivative of the Malay languages as Bahasa Indonesia and Bahasia Malaysia are. They are languages of experiences and emotions. They are NOT languages of the MIND as English, Spanish, German, French, etc, which are derivatives of Latin, are. Latin, in turn, derives its concept from Ancient Greek, which of course found its…
