The trouble with the Philippine Opposition led by the Liberal Party (a.k.a. the Yellowtards) is that they are failing at the one most important thing needed to succeed in a democracy: converting swing voters. At a fundamental level, the principles espoused by the Yellowtards and supporters of Duterte are the same. Both claim to be…
Trust click- and eyeball-hungry Philippine corporate media to milk Halloween with the usual stories of ghosts and spirits and other hocus-pocus reports of supernatural activity that they will report as “news” or “features”. This time, however, it will likely be about everyone’s favourite necro-topic nowadays, the alleged victims of “extrajudicial killings” or EJKs and their…
Yellowtard “investigative journalist” Raissa Robles finally went there. She is challenging Manila Times columnist Bobi Tiglao to explain why he hasn’t filed charges against his own torturers during his imprisonment in the 1970s. Bobie [sic] Tiglao blames human rights victims for not filing cases against their abusers. He should ask himsrlf first – why did…
I don’t think Duterte’s critics are happy about Boracay reopening. They were hoping their suspicions are true – that it was a prelude to Martial Law. We knew back then what a ludicrous notion that was and it is easily validated today what nonsense this is. Indeed, how can the yellows still think “investigative journalist”…
If we are to believe what the Yellowtards are saying nowadays, it would seem as if the People Who Wear Yellow for the Laban Cause simply vanished into thin air. Such is the effort to deny the existence of Yellowtardism being mounted by the Opposition. It is motivated by a secret acknowledgement that the Yellow…

We should all celebrate the fact that popular celebrities are now speaking out against the members of the Liberal Party. I think most were scared before when the bozos were still in power. Now only has beens are sticking with LP. This tweet by Francis Baraan IV is an example of the bad attitudes exhibited…
If the Yellowtard-led Philippine Opposition are building an entire campaign platform on the idea that Philippine democracy is “dying” then they are truly in big trouble. Many events have shown that this is not true. They have lied to Filipinos. They have lied to the foreign media. And they had lied to the International Criminal…

As usual aspiring PhD in “economics” JC Punongbayan issues a biased assessment of what is driving a downturn in Philippine stock indices of late. In his recent Rappler piece Why is the PH stock market among world’s worst? (prefixed by the word “analysis” in all caps just to make sure readers recognise it as such),…
If it does, then it is a sad day for Philippine democracy. It is, indeed, ironic that the Yellowtards shriek over their imagined “death” of “democracy” for it is in the manner with which they mount an “opposition” to the popular administration of President Rodrigo Duterte that we see a much more horrible, slower, more…
Nothing like the international star power of singer Lea Salonga can throw a spanner into the petty bickering that characterises the Philippines’ so-called political discourse. This she did in response to a Facebook post by prominent talent manager Ogie Diaz where he slammed Yellowtard social media personality Jesus Falcis for slandering actor Aga Muhlach for…
