The bailiwick excuse: More signs of electronic electoral fraud! #BBM4VP

By -


The Robredo camp gave an explanation that the reason why Marcos took an early lead is that his bailiwicks where the first that were transmitted. 

David Yap and I find this explanation unsatisfactory.

Let us zero in on the 75% transmission when there was a glitch, after which Robredo began to overtake Marcos

If the argument is that prior to 75% transmission, Marcos bailiwicks constituted the bulk of the votes, then shouldn't the increases in his lead have tapered off as the transmission rate neared 75%? In fact, this was not the case. The increases in Marcos lead over Robredo were steady from 1% to 75% transmission levels.  Now, if we assume that the Marcos bailiwick size to be at approximately 30% to 35%, then simple logic will dictate that such would have been exhausted long before the 75% mark. And if his bailiwick support tapered then his lead increases should have tapered LONG before the 75% mark.

If the argument that after the 75% that there were no more Marcos bailiwicks were true, then the northern corridor should have had full 100% transmission rates. This is not true given that there were transmission problems in the North.

Furthermore, if the bailiwick support for Marcos only started drying up at the 75% mark then the diminution of Marcos' lead should have been gradually increasing, not steady.

In addition, if they argue that the first 75% would be the bailiwicks of Marcos, it behooves to ask why is it that the increases were steady? Would it not have been more logical that his votes steadily increased and then tapered downwards later? Why are his votes steadily moving up at a constant rate?

And if they keep arguing in this way, then where is the randomness of the transmissions?  Are they now saying that there is a duality that the 75 percent mainly came from Marcos bailiwicks while after that, all were now coming from Robredo bailiwicks?

    Rappler has the graphs you are looking for. Of course, their spin on the issue is the "bailiwick excuse"

    A roll forward analysis will give rise to the findings of fraud. Vertical and horizontal result. Voters count versus vote counts.

The sound of a #Tagalog convo: 'like chickens and hens cackling in unison'

By -

While I'm not sure the language should totally go the way Latin did, one can't deny the limited use of Tagalog. As it is now, a sentence can't be done without two or three borrowed words in English which makes it redundant in academia. Somehow you gotta address the technical jargon but there really is no equivalent to it in Tagalog so the English term just ends up jammed in between the local vernacular. Nevermind the fact that reading Tagalog online is cringey no matter who wrote it. Add the fact that it just doesn't sound pleasing to the ear. Normal conversation with Tagalog is like chickens and hens cackling in unison to the uninitiated. It's the peasants' language through and through. ------------ This is a GRP Featured Comment.

Poor people in the Philippines seem to prefer poverty over aspiring to be not poor

By -

Sadly, a MAJORITY of the poor people here are bad people. That is WHY they are poor. They disrespect others, they disrespect themselves, and they disrespect God’s creation. Exactly how do they think they’ll be rewarded for that? If you genuinely had empathy, you would be able to get inside their heads and understand why they do these things, and perhaps know how to fix it. However, you are confusing “empathy” with “sympathy”. I have yet to meet a poor person who actually WANTS to do the things necessary to escape poverty. The funny thing is, everyone can see that I’m more successful than they are. They think this is because I’m “rich”. I’m sure a lot of them are full of jealousy (as benign0 describes) and sit around thinking “ha, it’s not fair, that foreigner is so rich and I’m so poor. I guess it’s OK if I steal his stuff”. Which they do. Regularly. I grew up poor. I know how it feels to be hungry, all the time, every day. I decided I didn’t like feeling like that. I’m successf

Rappler CEO @MariaRessa suggests that Duterte was ORDERED to sing by Trump! 😮

By -

In a tweet fielded by Rappler CEO Maria Ressa today, the causality reader could be led to believe that Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte was ordered to sing by US President Donald Trump. But was he really? It seems Ressa is just being too quick to selectively interpret a common Filipino colloquialism that is no different to the way we use terms like "bossing" and "chief" to address peers or even subordinates in a tongue-in-cheek manner. Ressa is most definitely grasping for straws here.
