Philippine Opposition bent on POLITICISING the Jonel Nuezca shooting incident

December 21, 2020 benign0 6 Comments

As expected, the Opposition led by the Yellowtards (the block within it loyal to the Aquino-Cojuangco clan) and the communists are seizing the opportunity to politicise the shooting incident that left Sonya and Frank Anthony Gregorio dead. The dishonest logic that underpins this politicisation campaign is all-too-familiar: (1) put up this isolated incident as sufficient…

Terrorist vs terrorist: Catfight between the communist Teddy Casino and convicted putschist Sonny Trillanes draws laughs

December 18, 2020 benign0 3 Comments

Looking at the recent tiff between former “senator” and convicted coup leader Antonio Trillanes and the communist Teddy Casino, one need not dig deeper into the matter to get any further insight. The short of it is that both bozos are basically arguing on who made sumbong to the so-called “International Criminal Court” first. The…

Leni Robredo STILL foolishly believes she is “leader” of the Philippine Opposition

December 14, 2020 benign0 2 Comments

By the end of December this year, there’ll be only 18 months to go before the next national elections in 2022. This means there are only just six months to go, more or less, before campaign season kicks off. As of now, it is still just Leni Robredo that the broader Philippine Opposition see as…

How the social climber @MrsUnlawyer tweeting about “educating” her “DDS” nanny turned into a raging debate

December 7, 2020 benign0 6 Comments

Should employers be influencing the political views of their employees? It brought the core of the controversy surrounding the limits to which an employer can influence her employees’ personal choices front and centre in what is evidently an unresolved debate. For that matter, the ethics around whether it is right for a person who enjoys…

Should La Salle student Johnrey Apellido apologize for insulting “VP” Leni Robredo?

December 7, 2020 zaxx 4 Comments

Democracy is what Filipinos signed up for. Facebook (FB) and every other social media platform give every citizen the avenue to express themselves publicly with nationwide reach. The fact that several institutions and personalities are expressing alarm and rage over the comments recently issued by a La Salle (Bacolod) student against the country’s “VP” is…

All bark and no bite: Will Leni Robredo REALLY stand up to Duterte as his EQUAL?

November 24, 2020November 24, 2020 benign0 6 Comments

That remains to be seen. Then again, on second thought, hasn’t Leni Robredo always been on a campaign against Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte? From Day One, “vice president” Leni Robredo remained on campaign mode against her own government long after the elections had been concluded and well into her (disputed) term as VP. She was…

Leni Robredo is not good for the intellectual growth of the Filipino people

November 23, 2020 benign0 6 Comments

It is quite amazing that the Opposition have not realised yet that all “vice president” Leni Robredo offers is the here-and-now and nothing much beyond that. Indeed, at the time of this writing, Robredo is top of mind amongst her fandom having just scored PR points that landed her some media — and social media…

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…
