Martial Law Crybabies demonise @MsLeaSalonga because Presidents Cory and BS Aquino failed to jail the Marcoses!

August 13, 2018August 13, 2018 benign0 10 Comments

Opposition “influencers” got their panties all twisted up over an old Facebook exchange between national treasure Lea Salonga’s 2016 tweets about her ambivalence to the “horrors” allegedly perpetrated by the late former President Ferdinand Marcos. These “influencers”, mostly blowhards from the woefully-discredited Liberal Party (a.k.a. the Yellowtards) continue to issue shrill whines about how these…

Mocha Uson’s followers have a responsibility to keep Mocha Uson honest and progressive

August 11, 2018 benign0 29 Comments

Whatever is said about the manner with which Mocha Uson is pitching “federalism” to the Filipino public, her followers need to be more circumspect in the way they consume what is being fed to them. Being a fan of Mocha Uson is one thing, and fan behaviour is understandable with regard to the bulk of…

Guilt-Tripping People for “Not Helping” is SJW Idiocy

August 9, 2018April 24, 2021 ChinoF 4 Comments

I wrote before about people who believe they should do something about the evil in the world. They hear about oppression or famine in another part of the world, they want to do something about it. They wish they could go over and probably give food to the poor, or give an abusive government or…

In mocking current Ph leaders, Noynoy Aquino proves his arrogance and greed

August 5, 2018August 5, 2018 Ilda 8 Comments

There are a lot of reasons why the Philippines remain a laggard. The country has fallen behind its neighbouring countries that started out the same way – impoverished after suffering the devastating effects of wars. One of the reasons why the Philippines’ status as a Third World country remains unchanged is because of greed. The…

Voting, Vaginas and Vehicles: How toning down people’s rights can bring order to the Philippines

August 4, 2018 zaxx 69 Comments

There has been much to discuss recently on the topic of “right to life” – whether having a beating heart is a basic right or a privilege. Now let’s dive into other so-called “rights” that Filipinos value. First off, let’s qualify the terms used in this article: Right / basic right – a fundamental moral…

Filipino-style ‘labour activism’ makes Filipino workers poorer rather than richer

August 1, 2018August 1, 2018 benign0 25 Comments

Filipinos would like to think they are “pro-poor” and “pro-worker”. Yet, this is a society where many of its most vocal “influencers” maintain lifestyles propped up by cheap labour. And why is labour cheap in the Philippines? Well, it is not because their employers are “evil” as communist “activists” would like us to believe. In…

Resurgence, relevance, and regard for the future, all in the SONA

July 31, 2018August 1, 2018 FallenAngel 3 Comments

During the State of the Nation address (SONA) last July 23, I got the impression that the Opposition to the administration of president Rodrigo Duterte had been sidelined: Attention in social media was generally away from the protests outside. Every year, the protests are already expected, complete with the effigy. This year it was one…

Duterte possesses that much-needed “MURDERER mentality” to lead the Philippines to GREATNESS

July 30, 2018 benign0 8 Comments

To be fair to the Philippine Opposition led by the Liberal Party (a.k.a. the Yellowtards), a strategic vision for the Philippines hinged on building infrastructure is counterintuitive to the average Filipino mind. This is because Filipinos do not have a strong historic tradition of building stuff. Indeed, much of the really large historical civil works…
