No Single Driver rule on EDSA is sweet revenge for Manila’s long-suffering commuting public

No Single Driver rule on EDSA is sweet revenge for Manila’s long-suffering commuting public

The No Single Driver rule. It’s the bane of the miniscule minority of Filipino private motorists who can afford to tool around Metro Manila alone in their own personal cars. With the implementation today of this rule along EDSA today, one can expect only a small proportion of EDSA users to be up in arms….

It was under President Gloria Arroyo through the mid-2000s that Yellowtardism began its slow DEATH

Happy times ahead! Former President Gloria Arroyo is now Speaker of the House of Representatives — a triumphant return after almost two decades of unjust persecution. It is not surprising the way the Philippine Opposition under the “leadership” of the Liberal Party (a.k.a. the Yellowtards) are getting all shrill about the return of Arroyo. It…

What has Ninoy Aquino actually achieved that makes him better than other Opposition leaders?

What has Ninoy Aquino actually achieved that makes him better than other Opposition leaders?

Actually, I am curious as well. What did Ninoy actually do for the country? Take out his monologues and death (of which only an insane person will deny the country is divided about). For fairness, we’ll discount his suspicious absence in Plaza Miranda and his arguably treasonous Jabidah myth making. And let’s take out allegations…

Filipinos must put EDSA I and Yellowtardism where they belong

Filipinos must put EDSA I and Yellowtardism where they belong

In the rubbish bin of history. By now it is pretty obvious that there is still a considerable group of Filipinos – many of them supposedly who are “educated” – who refuse to let go of the EDSA I narrative. To put it quite plainly, EDSA People Power happened simply because the leader at that…

The Rapplerettes in Mullets of the 1986 “People Power Revolution”

The Rapplerettes in Mullets of the 1986 “People Power Revolution”

Assistant Secretary for Social Media Mocha Uson actually does raise scrumptuous food for thought in her two recent “surveys” regarding the 1986 EDSA “People Power Revolution”. Uson presumably uses today’s loose definition of “fake news” being bandied around by, in all ironies, the Liberal Party leaders of the Opposition (a.k.a. the Yellowtards) and the Catholic…

Ed Lingao validates Mocha Uson’s “EDSA people power is Fake News” survey

The Opposition’s “thought leaders” are, yet again, getting all their panties twisted, this time over an online poll conducted by Assistant Secretary for Social Media Mocha Uson. In a survey posted on Facebook, Uson asked her followers, “Naniniwala ba kayo na ang 1986 EDSA PEOPLE POWER ay isang produkto ng FAKE NEWS???” (Translated: “Do you…

The Philippine Opposition is obsolete and needs to be replaced with one focused on nation building

The Philippine Opposition is obsolete and needs to be replaced with one focused on nation building

What next? Again, this is the question Filipinos are left with following this year’s “EDSA People Power Revolution” anniversary. Specifically, the question of how exactly to build upon the experience of this 1986 “revolution” has become a head-scratcher for most. It all seemed clear back then — how “freedom” would be the foundation upon which…

Bringing Down or Ousting People never Solved Anything

Posted on January 29, 2018April 22, 2021 By ChinoF 7 Comments on Bringing Down or Ousting People never Solved Anything
Bringing Down or Ousting People never Solved Anything

It’s clear that the so-called “opposition” is in favor of ousting President Rodrigo Duterte more than anything else. They want this based on the long-cherished but flawed belief that ousting people will lead to improvement in the country’s situation. The problem is, ousting people is anything but a solution, and it reflects lack of understanding…
