We beg to differ.
Inquirer columnist Winnie Monsod in her piece “Will Duterte stand by PH, as P-Noy did?” gives us some inside insight into what may have gone one behind the scenes in the administration of the late former President Noynoy Aquino with regard to the South China Sea dispute. She relates how one faction within the administration…
It’s easy to say that we’re influenced by trolls without understanding basic human psychology and sociology. These sciences focuses on human behavior and its patterns. There are a lot of factors that determine human behavior. But the irony is, now that we have more access to information, the less reliable these are. Disinformation has been…

I started blogging two years into his term, and I gave him hell whenever there was an undesirable event, effect, or outcome related to his government’s goings-on. The…
Whoever tweeted the phrase “whenever the Philippines is in trouble, an Aquino dies” should be commended. In a single sentence, that one tweet encapsulated the dishonest agenda of several decades of Yellowtard narrative. The death of Noynoy Aquino is being perverted beyond all recognition by the Philippine Opposition. The Second Aquino Administration is practically being…
