We beg to differ.
The problem with Opposition blogger Katrina Stuart-Santiago is she’s lucid at some point then irrationality overtakes her and she becomes another mumbling fool like the rest of her cohorts in the so-called 0pposition. In her most recent post, “Ponder propaganda: Fueling the Duterte machine”, she first astutely issues an indictment of her own camp’s handling…
That Sonshine Media Network International (SMNI) finds itself neck-deep in trouble comes as no surprise. Like its Yellowtard counterpart Rappler, SMNI sprung out of nowhere at a time when the Philippines’ political situation demanded targeted media coverage in aid of certain politicians’ personal agendas. The readily-evident relationships at the top make its intent a foregone…
One of my high school batchmates who’s a prominent leftist-liberal joined the Atin Ito resupply mission, if you want to call it that. Inquirer columnist Randy David touts it as “the birth of active citizenry” — if you want to believe that crap, that is. As Edicio dela Torre, one of the leaders of the…

Very likely not. Will it move those who…
The writing is on the wall. Brand Duterte is a sinking ship and it is taking down with it the cadre of cling-ons that hitched a ride on it during the previous term of former President Rodrigo Duterte. The Dutertes, if we recall, were disadvantaged from the very beginning. The former president was a “dark…

Are the communists genuine in their efforts to make peace with the Philippine Government? The answer to that question is quite simple. No. Communists have one and only one goal — to overthrow any legitimate government through violent means (what they call their “people’s revolution”) and install their “dictatorship of the proletariat”. Yet, current negotiations…
