We beg to differ.
Both the opposition and the administration are fragmented for the simple reason that their oligarch supporters and political kingmakers decided to each go on their own. In the case of the Opposition, two horses are being run; Leni Robredo and Isko Moreno Domagoso. In the case of the administration, President Rodrigo Duterte wanted Inday Sara…
The rebranding of the Yellowtard cause around the colour pink represents a massive misreading of the pulse and character of the Filipino people. For so long, the Opposition led by the Yellowtards (the bloc of partisans within it rabidly-loyal to the Aquino-Cojuangco clan) expressed bafflement over the continued popularity of incumbent Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte….
There was much rejoicing among the Yellowidiots yesterday. Their idol and symbol, Leni Robredo, finally confirmed what the public knew as fact already even before she made her announcement; she’s running for President. The Opposition went through convoluted contortions in their process of “selection”. “Unity” coalition 1Sambayan was established as a convenor group, to determine…
After months of deliberation, current Philippine Vice President Leni Robredo finally filed her certificate of candidacy to run for President in the 2022 Presidential elections.

I don’t usually write about Leni Robredo. I have as much disdain for her as Mar Roxas because they are too plastic for my political taste. Robredo is the same as Isko Moreno Domagoso as they are packaged candidates for the Presidency. Their track record is hype and their experience forged on social media —…
Aren’t Filipinos already tired of the primitive logic of the Yellowtards? That camp misled Filipinos into voting no less than two Aquinos to the presidency on the sole merit of their being respectively spouse to and son of former senator and “national hero” Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr. Now here they are again misleading Filipinos with…

If there is anything that encapsulates just about all of what the Opposition has to argue against the recently-announced candidacy of former President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr., it is the headline given to this Rappler piece authored by Lian Buan: “Dictator’s son Bongbong Marcos to run for president in 2022”. Being an avowed “social news…
