How frustrating it is to be a Filipino practicing democracy

Posted on April 20, 2016 By Kensei Yonzon 7 Comments on How frustrating it is to be a Filipino practicing democracy
How frustrating it is to be a Filipino practicing democracy

How frustrating it must be to be a supporter of Duterte. To be absolutely passionate for change, so desperate for extreme measures, but have to compromise on so many things with a PR disaster of a candidate. How frustrating it must be to be a woman who believes in the goodness of his heart but…

Stupid legacy: PNoy threat to launch ‘people power’ if Duterte and Marcos Jr win

Stupid legacy: PNoy threat to launch ‘people power’ if Duterte and Marcos Jr win

I showed the “Duterte rape joke” video to guys not in the internet on three occasions, family drivers, tryke drivers, construction workers. The reaction was unanimous that Rodrigo Duterte (DU30) was not cracking a necrophiliac joke, nor was he promoting rape. They interpreted “dapat na-una mayor” as “tarantado kayo, mas tarantado ako”. It was to…

The Coco Levy Scam, Danding Cojuangco and Grace Poe

The Coco Levy Scam orchestrated by former President Ferdinand Marcos and his cronies (foremost of which was Danding Cojuangco) during the Marcos Dictatorship, taxed the coconut farmers in the guise of developing the coconut industry and alleviating the plight of the marginalized coconut farmer. Instead, the substantial funds generated from the Levy over the course…

Bashing a ‘Homophobe’ but supporting a ‘Sexist’

Bashing a ‘Homophobe’ but supporting a ‘Sexist’

So after the political correctness and insensitivity police have savagely beaten up Congressman Manny Pacquiao (for comparing homosexuals to animals), it is now Mayor Rodrigo Duterte’s turn to burn at the stake. A video recently surfaced showing Duterte crossing a line when he apparently joked about a rape and murder in 1989, commenting that the…

The re-education of Rodrigo Duterte

The re-education of Rodrigo Duterte

They say it takes a village to raise a child. In Davao City Mayor and Presidential candidate Rodrigo Duterte’s case, it might take an entire nation to help him watch his tongue. Since announcing his candidacy, 70-year old Duterte has been experiencing a public berating, probably for the first time in his life, for his…

Leni Robredo is not presidential enough to be Vice President of the Philippines

Leni Robredo is not presidential enough to be Vice President of the Philippines

While other great nations land men on the moon, project naval power half way around the planet, and build research centres that churn out wondrous technologies that benefit mankind, Filipinos look to elect to higher office widows of “martyrs” who count “humility” as their primary qualification for office. It is quite baffling that Filipinos are…

Leni Robredo proved in Sunday’s #HarapanBise debate that she cannot MAN UP for the job

Watching Leni Robredo in last night’s vice presidential debate deliver her closing statements voice quivering and on the verge of tears, I thought: Ok, if Chinese troops started parachuting onto Manila while Leni Robredo was VP, what’s she gonna do? Cry and talk about her mommy issues? But that is exactly what she’s framed her…

Rodrigo Duterte should apologize over his rape ‘joke’ video

In a recently released video, mayor Duterte commented on the rape and murder of an Australian lay minister. The following is a transcript of his statements. “Ni-rape nila lahat ng babae…So ang unang casualty, ang isa dun yung lay minister na Australyana. Tsk, problema ito. Australyana eh! Pag labas, binalot. Tiningnan ko yung mukha. Putangina,…
