What “Wokes” Fail to Get about Poverty

Posted on September 19, 2019September 19, 2019 By ChinoF 19 Comments on What “Wokes” Fail to Get about Poverty
What “Wokes” Fail to Get about Poverty

The “woke” social justice warriors do what they do because their assumptions about poverty and suffering on earth are wrong. My impression is that they are like the vegan “activist” who posted on social media (assuming they meant it) a message admonishing people to not slaughter animals for meat and instead buy from groceries –…

It’s time Filipinos DEMAND ACCESS to exclusive private subdivisions!

Posted on September 17, 2019September 17, 2019 By benign0 27 Comments on It’s time Filipinos DEMAND ACCESS to exclusive private subdivisions!
It’s time Filipinos DEMAND ACCESS to exclusive private subdivisions!

The conversation surrounding the opening up of private subdivision roads to the public has been fired up again thanks to Manila’s increasingly desperate traffic situation. Indeed, it is one of those obvious solutions begging to be addressed. Big chi chi subdivisions create choke points at key entry point and junctions into and at Metro Manila’s…

Fear of missing out (FOMO) on a “better” president

Fear of missing out (FOMO) on a “better” president

We’re all familiar with the experience of looking for parking in a packed parking lot. After spending the last hour circling and, in the case of malls, spiralling up and down in desperate search, we spot that one slot in the midst of a sea of cars and pull into it. Needless to say, finding…

Why I Don’t Get Pride Marches and Pride at All

Posted on September 12, 2019October 3, 2024 By ChinoF 15 Comments on Why I Don’t Get Pride Marches and Pride at All
Why I Don’t Get Pride Marches and Pride at All

Perhaps I’m weird, but I never got the logic of how pride marches lead to respect. To me, such marches are like being a siga (macho bully) in town, going around and demanding respect from others, and when someone does not give that respect, he beats them up. LGBTs don’t usually beat people up, the…

Pinoy Culture Is To Blame For The Gilas Gnashing Of Teeth

Pinoy Culture Is To Blame For The Gilas Gnashing Of Teeth

I can’t believe in 2019 where we have so much access to information that people still love to play the genetic victim card or some other excuse why the only country on Earth with basketball tunnel vision is so inept once they leave the country:. “Other teams are taller” “Height is might.” “There’s no question…

Will “equality” and “acceptance” really make gay people happy? Probably not.

Will “equality” and “acceptance” really make gay people happy? Probably not.

This, it seems, is the underlying premise of the “Gay Movement”. An entire industry, a vast landscape of political agendas, and lucrative businesses have been built around this debatable premise. Marketers and brand managers have gotten behind the rainbow flag salivating over the vast new markets it will create. Politicians got on the bandwagon and…

Filipinos should have a strategic plan to exploit Hong Kong’s troubles

Posted on September 10, 2019September 10, 2019 By benign0 4 Comments on Filipinos should have a strategic plan to exploit Hong Kong’s troubles
Filipinos should have a strategic plan to exploit Hong Kong’s troubles

Tough luck for Hong Kong. This is really the attitude Filipinos should be applying to their regard for the circus going on in Hong Kong. One country’s crisis is another’s bonanza and Manila can profit massively at the regretful but necessary expense of the erstwhile shopping mecca of their chi chi elite classes. Unlike the…

Rappler “economist” @JCPunongbayan is growing up!

Rappler “economist” @JCPunongbayan is growing up!

First it was high prices and “galloping inflation” — something the Philippines’ community of snowflake “activists” screeched about. Now everybody’s panties are in a knot over crashing rice prices at the farmgate. So what is really behind the movement of prices? Just last year, resident economics “expert” JC Punongbayan fixated on the nuances in the…
