The Communists are LYING. No one actually said that “Criticism = Terrorism”!

It is actually quite baffling the way Opposition “activists” are rallying around the nonsensical slogan “Criticism is not Terrorism”. To begin with no such assertion had been made by anyone as far as I am aware. I don’t even think these “activists” themselves would be able to name any specific person who’d be stupid enough…

The Liberal Party has FAILED in its role as part of ‘the opposition’

There is something to be said about how the Liberal Party (LP), the political force that has remained ubiquitous ever since the 1986 People Power Movement, has handled its role as part of political opposition to the Rodrigo Duterte administration.

Taboo Topics In the Philippines (And Why We Need To Discuss Them)

Why I Think Noynoy Aquino Should Resign: A Rant

Look guys, it’s in the title, this is actually more of a rant than an actual article but I think you guys need to hear this out anyway… GRP has time and time again been called out on being Anti-Aquino and, indeed, many rabid loyalists of the “yellow” administration has called us and many others…
