Philippine Opposition partisans and “activists” are salivating over the victory of Democratic candidate Joe Biden over Donald Trump.

Just when you thought the Opposition led by the Yellowtards (the partisan bloc rabidly loyal to the Aquino-Cojuangco feudal clan) could not plumb even lower depths in their desperate quest for power, here they are now seizing every opportunity to turn the imminent visit of super-typhoon Goni (code-named “Rolly” in the Philippines) into political gain….

The last couple of weeks has provided us lots of insight into the dismal state of Philippine “activism”. Particularly revealing is the whole circus surrounding “red-tagging” where we’ve been audience to the baffling antics of a community of “activist” organisations that had time and again proudly flown red flags in practically all of their protest…
