Filipinos have Mocha Uson and the Yellowtards have Jover Laurio. Who’s gonna win?

October 4, 2018 benign0 12 Comments

Now that former Assistant Secretary Mocha Uson is a private citizen, she can start blogging. Like a real blogger. Just like that other one who’s been styled by no less than Rappler and its community of Jesuit- and nun-educated cheerleaders as the preeminent blogger of the Philippine Opposition led by the Liberal Party (a.k.a. the…

Why do communists continue to exist in Philippine politics?

October 3, 2018 benign0 7 Comments

So-called “activists” decry the “stagnation” and even the regression of Philippine democracy to states supposedly not seen since the “Martial Law Years”. What they conveniently leave out of this tiresome scare narrative is that they embrace, as part of their “Laban”, the Cold War Era sloganeering of that other scourge of the 20th Century —…

It’s time Filipinos TAKE BACK their Opposition from the Yellowtards and communists!

October 1, 2018October 1, 2018 benign0 47 Comments

Filipinos continue to be shortchanged by their political Opposition. They offer neither genuine nor substantial opposition to the incumbent administration of President Rodrigo Duterte. All they contribute to the discourse is noise. They provide no alternative path forward and seek to keep Filipinos fixated on an irrelevant past. It is easy of course to claim…

The fact that the Opposition are preparing for the 2019 elections means democracy is not “dead”!

September 29, 2018 benign0 14 Comments

It isn’t much of a preparation as there is neither vision nor platform to give meaning to their pitch to the Filipino voter. The fact, however, that the Philippine Opposition led by the Liberal Party (a.k.a. the Yellowtards) are now on full campaign mode in the lead up to the 2019 elections exhibits their grudging…

Should Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte resign?

September 28, 2018 benign0 7 Comments

But of course the Philippine Opposition thinks so. Led by the Liberal Party (a.k.a. the Yellowtards), the Opposition has done nothing but call for the end of the Duterte administration. But really, in the bigger scheme of things, is the resignation of the president really that big a deal? The bigger question the Yellowtards fail…

Boycotting Delimondo is the Answer to Historical Revisionism?

September 27, 2018 Hector Gamboa 31 Comments

Yellows and commies have been bombarding social media in the Philippines lately with calls for a boycott on the popular corned beef Delimondo. This call for a boycott on the product arose in the aftermath of the Bongbong Marcos – Juan Ponce Enrile (JPE) tête-à-tête discussing what happened during the Martial Law period in the…

Trixie Cruz Angeles and her fake news page Metro Manila Daily News

September 25, 2018September 25, 2018 P. Farol 6 Comments

It’s great to see Trixie Cruz Angeles walking in the sun these days and mixing it up like a beast in the social media jungle. Her Facebook page’s stats are at full gallop because last time I checked, it had more followers than “likes” and it seems the engagement in each one of her posts…

Opposition Yellow narrative again proven a LIABILITY after failed #NeverAgain rally and 2019 election winnables shock

September 24, 2018September 24, 2018 benign0 7 Comments

The names topping the list of potential “senatoriables” for the 2019 elections released by Pulse Asia recently shows just how ineffective the Philippine Opposition has been at converting voters to their “cause”. Led by the Liberal Party (a.k.a. the Yellowtards) the Opposition has focused on inciting sedition through street rallies, demonisation campaigns, and shoddy hijacking…
