Jose Rizal never had Tagalog in mind when he encouraged us to love our own language

Posted by a certain Chloe Santiago on the Facebook GRP Community Group : Jose Rizal died in 1896 and Tagalog was declared the official language of the Philippine only in 1937. This can only mean that Rizal wasn't really talking about Tagalog when he made this statement: "He who does not love his own language is worse than an animal and smelly fish." Indeed. Who made the arbitrary directive to make the Tagalog dialect the "National Language" to begin with? Furthermore, why have a "National Language" when Filipinos are already proficient in the global lingua franca of commerce and scientific achievement?

Leni Robredo is incapable of taking a position on CRITICAL national issues

The Philippines' "vice president" Leni Robredo is renowned for starting every statement with the phrase " ang sa akin lang naman " (in my humble opinion). As in something like this, for example... Ang sa akin lang naman, Martial Law in Mindanao won't be effective... Blah blah blah... And more of that to the same effect. What does Robredo's propose? Essentially nothing . The trouble with that is, Filipinos are all options but no roadmap . As such, Robredo mirrors the essence of the failure of the Philippine Opposition. They make a lot of noise about options (packaged as being "critical" of the administration) yet offer no pathway forward. It is hardly surprising why the Philippine Opposition led by the Yellowtards continues to fail.

We need to give credit where credit is due. Vera Files gas so far proven that it is doing fact checks the right way. Its reports have so far been well-constructed, comprehensive, and systematic in the way assertions made on the bases of the information that are the subjects of its reports are made. Their latest Fact Check report  Media groups err on figures on media killings; Roque claim on press freedom wrong called out how, on the occasion of World Press Freedom Day, media watchdogs Center for Media Freedom and Responsibility (CMFR), National Union of Journalists in the Philippines (NUJP) and the Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism (PCIJ) made assertions on the basis of dubious analysis of data on media personnel killings over several Philippine presidencies. Most important of all is this snippet in the report that supports long-held views that so-called "media watchdogs" are deliberately slanting -- even maliciously modifying -- data to suit partisan age

On Raissa Robles's idiotic response to @BobiTiglao and the free pass given to this idiocy by @indayevarona

By -

In a blog post given the sloppy title " Letter to a certain Tiglao ", Raissa presumes to respond to Manila Times columnist Bobi Tiglao who, in his  article " It was Aquino, not Duterte, whom Cambridge Analytica 'helped' become President ", completely eviscerated allegations made by Robles in a South China Morning Post article that current Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte won the 2016 elections aided by SCL, parent company of the notorious Cambridge Analytica. Robles's quaint "letter to a certain Tiglao" is so infantile that it could be summarised in just five points... (1) She felt "sad" about "seeing so many mistakes" in Tiglao's article. (2) She pointed out that Tiglao got the gender of her editor wrong. (3) She pointed out that Tiglao addressed her as if she was a mere recent acquaintance. (4) She made an issue of how Tiglao made use of "unnamed sources". And then (5) concludes that Tig
