PEAK YELLOWTARD has been reached in Philippine politics!

Just like how the 20th Century saw the rise and (beginning of the) fall of the internal combustion engine and its fossil fuel energy source, so too were we witness to the rise and fall of Yellowtard thinking from 1983 to 2016. Rest in Peace Yellowtardom.

Dubbed “Peak Oil”, the anticipated fate of fossil fuels as the primary means to supply the world’s energy needs evolved from being one where supply would eventually be exhausted (or severely curtailed) to one where demand would fall as alternative fuels (such as wind and solar) are tapped and alternative engines (electric powered ones) replaced the conventional. Both are happening today.

The same happened to Yellowtardom but at a much more accelerated rate. Yellowtards used to fuel the Philippines’ political rhetoric. Now they are but a pale shadow of their former glory. Demand for their bullshit has crashed (Yellowtard slogans now ellicit eyes rolls, cringe, and nausea and no longer the awe and inspiration they once commanded). More importantly, supply of fresh Yellowtard politicians and “thought leaders” has also dried up. Both new and traditional politicians are distancing themselves from the Yellow colour and the Loser hand gesture. Bloggers (except for a small clique of dinosaurs) no longer adorn their web pages with icons of Yellow ribbons.

Peak Yellowtard has set in. Alternatives need to be found. Like the hunt for alternative sources of energy, the search for alternative forms of “dissent” requires the best minds and cutting-edge thinking. Who is up to that task in Philippine politics? That remains to be seen.
