Opposition to campaign on a Revenge Platform for the 2022 elections following ABS-CBN shutdown

Not to be outdone following the denied renewal of the ABS-CBN franchise to broadcast on Friday, the Opposition have now set their sights on the 2022 national elections for their “revenge”. Indeed, top Opposition “thought leaders” are now gearing up for the “fight” and crafting a Revenge Platform for that purpose as prominent “activist” Gang…

Filipinos have more important things to worry about than woke “issues”

Posted on July 7, 2020July 7, 2020 By benign0 5 Comments on Filipinos have more important things to worry about than woke “issues”
Filipinos have more important things to worry about than woke “issues”

If we are to believe our top “activists” and “thought leaders”, it would appear that the Philippines’ most pressing problems are the ABS-CBN broadcast franchise, the Anti-Terrorism Bill (which is now a law), and “gender issues”. Perhaps this is because the voices that dominate the discourse happen to be the ones who command strong followings…

@StephenSackur HardTalks Maria Ressa, tells her to GET REAL!

Rappler CEO Maria Ressa may have suckered an entire Western news media industry into spreading her lies, but not Stephen Sackur, renowned hard-hitting investigative journalist and host of the BBC’s show Hard Talk. Cornering Ressa for such a talk, Sackur asks all the hard questions of Ressa; how, despite all her claims that a climate…

Maria Ressa’s apologists continue to emotionally blackmail Filipinos into hating the system that convicted her

Maria Ressa’s apologists continue to emotionally blackmail Filipinos into hating the system that convicted her

Here is why Rappler CEO Maria Ressa lost her case against Wilfredo Keng who, several years ago, filed a case of cyber libel against her and “reporter” Rey Santos Jr. She failed to make a strong case in her defense. Evidently, no lessons were learned. We can see this in a statement issued by the…

In the time of COVID-19 pandemic, Duterte actually knows how to talk to his people

In the time of COVID-19 pandemic, Duterte actually knows how to talk to his people

Ironic that Inquirer columnist Vincen Gregory Yu (was his name mis-spelt or is that really his name?), in his quaint expression of Singapore envy today, would issue the following lament in wistful observation of how well that country’s Prime Minister, Lee Hsien Loong, briefed his people on how his government was managing the ongoing COVID-19…

How Filipinos can fix their broken “democracy”

How Filipinos can fix their broken “democracy”

Perhaps rightly so, Opposition partisans in the Philippines lament the way “democracy” is working for them nowadays. They lost an entire nation in the 2016 elections that catapulted former Davao City mayor Rodrigo Duterte to the presidency today and botched a chance to gain a foothold into Congress when they suffered a catastrophic loss in…

What didn’t destroy Duterte only made him more popular

As the saying goes what doesn’t kill you only makes you stronger. Recent popularity surveys reveal that Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte remains popular among Filipinos despite his critics’ best efforts to sabotage his government. Duterte got an “excellent“ net satisfaction rating of +72 in the last three months of 2019, according to emailed results of…

Scratching the ChaCha itch: Why an Opposition VP like Leni will never work well for the Philippines

Scratching the ChaCha itch: Why an Opposition VP like Leni will never work well for the Philippines

Who else can come up with that idiotic provision in the Constitution of allowing a candidate from the Opposing Party to serve as co-pilot in running the country? None other than one with a Yellow-logic-infested brain of course. Yep, the 1987 Cory Constitution, like the stupid Lina law that protects squatters from getting evicted unless…
