The world will not wait for the Philippines to recover from COVID-19

The world will not wait for the Philippines to recover from COVID-19

“Humanity” and all the goodness around empathy and charity sound nice on paper but, eventually, people and the rest of the world with clear pathways to the future move on. Those that are at risk of being left behind — the chronic poor, the sick and dying, and the not-so-smart — while entitled to some…

Much of the Philippines’ problems have to do with Filipinos’ lack of EMPATHY

Posted on June 24, 2019 By benign0 13 Comments on Much of the Philippines’ problems have to do with Filipinos’ lack of EMPATHY
Much of the Philippines’ problems have to do with Filipinos’ lack of EMPATHY

There seems to be a key human virtue missing in the Philippines’ collective psyche and this is the virtue of empathy. Why would I consider Filipinos lacking in empathy? Simple. Because, as a people, Filipinos do not seem to care enough about anyone outside of their immediate social and family circles. For proof of this,…

Posted on May 9, 2016 By Charles Englund 14 Comments on Confessions in the lead up to the 2016 Philippine elections
Confessions in the lead up to the 2016 Philippine elections

It has been a year since I started writing under a pseudonym. My main impetus was really to be able to talk freely and participate in online political discussions. When you have friends and family who currently or previously worked in government, it is more considerate to go by an alias when you are airing…

President Aquino’s 3 Traits That Have Led The Philippines To Ruin

Posted on November 3, 2015November 3, 2015 By Grimwald 31 Comments on President Aquino’s 3 Traits That Have Led The Philippines To Ruin
President Aquino’s 3 Traits That Have Led The Philippines To Ruin

Ilda has said her pieces about President Aquino and they are certainly more than a little harsh. As if on cue, President Aquino’s supporters are quick to jump to his defense like pagan clerics protecting their grotesque satanic idol. However, despite the adamant and vehement defense being put up around President Aquino, there’s no denying the…

Where Did All The Good Men Go?

Before we begin, let me ask you, how do you measure a man? I once wrote a succession of articles trying to define the meaning of “heroism” but now, let me ask you, how do you define being a good man in this day and age. After all, before you have yourself a hero, you…

What To Look For In A Political Candidate

Hello ladies and gentlemen. I am once again writing this article because certain individuals have been asking me, rather repetitively, who am I going to vote for in the 2016 election and what they need to look for in a good candidate. Before I begin, I’d like to take the time to call out some of…

A Moment of Silence for Pamana

A Moment of Silence for Pamana

Recently, I tried to talk to one of my officemates about the death of Pamana, one of the few existing Philippine Eagle, and her response is: “Big deal ba?” I tried to do my best to hide my feeling of being insulted since Pamana is not just an eagle, but he is a symbol to…

5 Things Mar Roxas Has To Learn If He Really Wants To Become A Presidentiable

Okay, truth be told, the more I see Mar Roxas and his desperate attempt to earn the people’s sympathy and favor, the more I want to roll around on the ground laughing. See, I think one of the biggest reasons why he’s not getting anywhere with his vain attempt at convincing the people he can…
