Yellowtards are now claiming that they were “misinterpreted” in their ill-thought-out initiative to get fans to wear black when they watch the UAAP basketball match between the University of the Philippines (UP) and the Ateneo de Manila. According to these “activists”, they were merely “urging” and not commanding basketball enthusiasts to wear black during the…
Trust millennial “social justice warriors” to take the edge off a basketball game between two top institutions of learning vying for domination of the Tall Man’s Sport. I mean, who goes to a basketball game expecting a love-in, right? Unfortunately, with a political discourse dominated by SJW snowflakes, even the erstwhile cutthroat sport of Pinoy-style…

So suddenly there are Filipino-Chinese, Hong Kong Chinese, Taiwanese Chinese and Mainland Chinese. This comes as hating the People’s Republic of China has suddenly become a fashion statement for the Philippines’ chi chi “activists” who presume to protest the visit of its president Xi Jinping this week. The interesting thing with this sudden specificity when…
Indeed, China is doing something to the Philippines that Filipinos really ought to be very familiar with. The Chinese are merely squatting. And given Filipinos’ unmatched tolerance for squatters to the point of even elevating them to sainthood, they really shouldn’t be complaining at all. Squatting, as most Filipinos know, happens when people start illegally…
Mar Roxas did everything he thought he could do except for the right things. He didn’t need to direct traffic himself, for example. He could have asked the traffic enforcers to do it. He just wanted the cameras showing him doing something. He sucks at delegation and therefore would never have made a good manager…

Sure, why not? Go dig up former President Ferdinand Marcos’s remains from the Libingan ng mga Bayani. Before that, find out where exactly these remains will be placed. Will the Martial Law Crybabies drag his remains across EDSA for dramatic effect? Why not tar and feather these remains and string them up at the Rizal…
It comes across as a bit hypocritical this outrage fad over Chinese nationals (or so we are led to believe) engaging in “unruly” or rude acts all over town. Photos of “mainland Chinese” people are now making the rounds over social media with one or another Netizen adding their respective two-cent commentary on what a…

It is appalling that “vice president” Leni Robredo, presumably the second highest official in the Philippines, would regard a foreigner as one who is “more Filipino” than many Filipinos. This is the height of treachery coming from someone who is but a heartbeat away from the Philippine presidency. Robredo exhibits a particularly nefarious aspect of…
Notice how, during election season, many politicians are speaking in Tagalog. Right there is a form of epal not too many “activists” shriek about. Many of them, specially those who are second- or third- generation politicians grew up in English-speaking households and environments and went to schools known for the impeccable English-speaking prowess of their…

One thing that’s undermining the government of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is the communication style used by Duterte in his verbal statements. The numerous ill-thought-out remarks he makes have so far been a gold mine of ammo the Opposition gleefully use to bolster their nonetheless intellectually-bankrupt rhetoric. Indeed, the single biggest thing Duterte could do…
