Philippine Opposition “thought leaders” look to Joe Biden’s victory with envy

November 8, 2020 benign0 6 Comments

Philippine Opposition partisans and “activists” are salivating over the victory of Democratic candidate Joe Biden over Donald Trump. Seeing no less than a former colonial master “triumph” over “tyranny” is an inspiration for these folks as they scrounge around for “parallels” with their own plight. With the 2022 national elections in the Philippines just around…

Joe Biden wins US #Election2020 on an “I am not Donald Trump” platform

November 5, 2020November 5, 2020 benign0 10 Comments

This is what happens when a nation votes against someone rather than for someone. In the case of the United States following this year’s election, the president will be a lame duck with a Senate dominated by Republicans. That’s a statement of relativity although there already is some evidence that Joe Biden may turn out…

Typhoon Goni (Ph codename #RollyPH) an epic PR fail for the Philippine Opposition

November 2, 2020 benign0 3 Comments

It seems the Opposition led by the bloc rabidly-loyal to the Aquino-Cojuangco clan (a.k.a. the Yellowtards) are scrounging around for opportunities to pick up the pieces of the shattered dreams left by super-typhoon Goni (codenamed “Rolly” in the Philippines). In the lead up to what they hoped would turn into a catastrophe for the government…

Opposition disappointed as #RollyPH (Typhoon Goni) leaves the Philippines relatively unscathed

November 1, 2020 benign0 1 Comment

Once again the Philippine Opposition’s prayers were left unanswered as Typhoon Goni (codenamed “Rolly” in the Philippines) passes relatively harmlessly. Like most typhoons plowing through the Philippines, Rolly left a trail of destruction of the sort regarded as normal by most Filipinos. But it was nothing like the catastrophe Opposition partisans were hoping for, and…

Dishonest Philippine Opposition are desperately politicising typhoon #RollyPH!

October 31, 2020 benign0 6 Comments

Just when you thought the Opposition led by the Yellowtards (the partisan bloc rabidly loyal to the Aquino-Cojuangco feudal clan) could not plumb even lower depths in their desperate quest for power, here they are now seizing every opportunity to turn the imminent visit of super-typhoon Goni (code-named “Rolly” in the Philippines) into political gain….

Time to take back ACTIVISM from the communists and Yellowtards!

October 26, 2020 benign0 1 Comment

The last couple of weeks has provided us lots of insight into the dismal state of Philippine “activism”. Particularly revealing is the whole circus surrounding “red-tagging” where we’ve been audience to the baffling antics of a community of “activist” organisations that had time and again proudly flown red flags in practically all of their protest…

Manifesto of the Yellowtard Wet Dream

October 19, 2020October 19, 2020 benign0 1 Comment

It’s a bit sad to see Philippine Opposition “activists” and partisans looking longingly overseas as their counterparts in other countries mount impressive mass protests on their city streets. You could almost imagine Filipino “activists” wailing about how they “invented” street “revolutions” back in the 1980s and now have to suffer the indignity of being reduced…

Ninoy was Dead Wrong: The Filipino is NOT worth dying for

October 16, 2020 zaxx 36 Comments

Did the fake hero utter a lie when he said: The Filipino is worth dying for ? Let’s do a little thought experiment: Recall that Filipina who was on death row abroad…Yes, Mary Jane Veloso, who was arrested and sentenced to death for smuggling heroin into Indonesia. Let’s have a show of hands. Who among…
