Hypocrisy of Philippines' "disente" crowd exposed by President Rodrigo Duterte
The problem with the "disente" crowd (i.e. Mar Roxas, Risa Hontiveros, Winnie Monsod, wannabe hangers-on like Leni Robredo and Leila de Lima etc) and their oligarch backers is that they only care about themselves and about appearances.
Notice how the words they use to criticize Duterte like "unpresidential" and "foul-mouthed" are all premised on some form of pakitang-tao. It's like they don't care that the guy has cut processing times at government offices, given OFWs a one-stop shop, significantly lowered the crime rate after less than 2 months in office. They just fixate on how he talks, his broken English, his bombastic demeanor, and fret "oh, what will the world think of us?"
Mas importante pa ba ang iniisip ng UN at ng mga ambassador at mga foreign media kaysa opinyon at kapakanan ng mamamayang Pilipino?
Even the very use of the word "disente" by this oligarch-backed group as their tagline reeks of condescension and disdain for the ordinary Filipino.
But doesn't the "disente" crowd also work with the NGOs and the poor, you might ask. Yes, they do, and they do it out of self-interest and to feel good about themselves (plus tax breaks). These "disente" folk engage with the masses to indulge their imagined sense of noblesse oblige. They feel superior when they "help" the poor. The ones in government positions do it to build up a base for the next elections.
The yellows always want to stay in power because they think it is their entitlement. They think the presidency of the Philippines is part of their family inheritance, along with properties, cars, paintings, and jewelry. Para sa kanila, monarchy ang Pilipinas, at sila ang royal family.
Now here comes Duterte, an outsider who doesn't pander to the "disente" crowd and focuses more on the ordinary Filipino, disrupting all that. The "disente" crowd can't stand him because he has exposed their hypocrisy and woken up the masses, so now the masses are not as easy to manipulate.
The man has his flaws, plenty of them (for one, he should stop those excruciating live press conferences), but even the "disente" crowd can't dispute that his heart is in the right place and he has the balls to do what needs to be done.
So, to the "disente" crowd, leave him alone so he can do his job. Pasalamat kayo that there is a president like him who is willing and able to clean up the mess you yellows left behind. The most "disente" thing you people can do at this point is to shut up and stop stirring up issues where there are none. EJK ng EJK kayo diyan (extra judicial killings). Alam niyo naman na mga drug lord yan na nag-uubusan. Kailangan niyo lang talaga ng issue.

ReplyDeleteCan the writer show us how to help the poor? There are individuals or organizations that are secretive in their charitable acts. Isn't it natural that we feel good after helping the less privileged?
ReplyDeleteWow, kung gusto mo tumulong tumulong ka pero kung ipapamukha mo lang na tumulong ka edi wag ka nang tumulong.
DeleteI go, go, go for these individuals or organizations who are secretive in their charitable acts. According to Jesus Christ, when we help the poor, we should not trumpet about it. Let not what our left hand know what the right hand is doing. I can't understand why there is need for the writer to show how to help the poor. Matthew 6:2 -"So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.

DeleteSa mahal naming pangulo, please minimize the live press conferences sa madaling araw. We need you to be healthy po. Get plenty of rest and sleep. Every filipino is counting on you po. Maraming salamat po sa pagmamalasakit nyo sa amin.
ReplyDeleteMarami nang galit sa ating pangulo dahil hindi na nila mapirahan ang goberno! Like for example: Yung mga tagatahi ng mga mamahaling gown sa SONA wala na yun dahil gusto ng ating pangulo e simple lang! Yung mga extravagant na gastusin sa mga event ng Malacanang ay hindi na masyadong maluho at magastos. Kasi kahit saging maruya e pwede na, at ibang mga organic foods na meron tayo! Most importantly ito pa hindi na sila pwedeng magpapasok nga mga imported rice kasi kaya pala natin ang production by our own needs...may supporta na sila sa govt.at pwede na tayo makabili ng murang bigas! Ang mga corrupt mahihirapan na kung paano sila maka kickback....kaya kayong mga mayayaman takot na kayo maging pulubi ngayon! Kaya kahit ano2x nalang ang mga reklamo ninyu sa mga programa sa ating pangulo. Para may masabi kayo na hindi kaya ng ating pangulo at ginugulo ninyu palagi. Naniwala kami sa inyu noon dahil malumanay kayong magsalita at kunwari ang babait ninyu! Pagkatapos ang corrupt pala ninyung lahat!!!! Wag na ninyung dalhin at gamitin ang mga mahihirap sa mga rason ninyu! Dahil kayo ang makasarili at walang konsensiya....ginagamit pa ninyung aasawahin mga sikat na celebrity para makilala kayo sa mga tao! Kilala na naming stelo ninyu at tama na...subra na!
ReplyDeletePinasara na ang minahan kasi yun ang source ng kanilang income. Pina-audit na ang Malampaya. Inalis na ang on-line gambling. Tinanggal na ang mge chief ng tiwaling agencia. Binubuwg na ang ga drug syndicate. Marami pa yan. Maghintay lang tayo Pilipino. Kauumpisa pa lang.
DeleteTama.. dapat kau mga disenti crowd magising na kayo bago kau tuluyang mawala sa mundo..hwag u na isipin lagi ang pansarili nyo lang..
ReplyDeleteNothing new under the sun. Remember how the ilustrados stole the revolution from Andres Bonifacio and how they have him killed, to perpetuate the pre-existing hacienda system and protect the dissolution of their wealth. So now we have a president of the genre of Andres Bonifacio and expectedly, the so-called Disente Crowd would not be happy with this uncouth president. No matter what Duterte does to be aristocratic in his bearing, his plebian origin will continue to manifest. And just like Magsaysay, he would be continually loved by the masses who could identify with him.
ReplyDeleteRodel, you nailed it right on the head. these breed of so called disente crowd throughout our history has been in power for so long and where did they bring the Philippines? They gutted the country to the bone and still, they want more. siguro, mas bagay na tawagin silang mga 'disenteng bwitre'.
DeleteBull's eye ...!!!
ReplyDeleteNope, it's pure Bull shit!

ReplyDeleteExcuse me sir, but Where is the broken english in Duterte's English?
ReplyDeleteListen carefully to his words and compare it with Delimas or Aquino and you can see the type of vocabulary Duterte uses compared to others. Duterte has way better vocabulary than the rest of these idiots. Tipong pang showbiz lng ang dating. haha. Parang pinag aral ng basic course ng conversational english, at dapat overconfident.
remember that duterte was a lawyer. You can never battle as a lawyer if you have very limited vocabulary, comparable to showbiz english!
He cuts his sentences mainly bec he swears, and his anger.
That is correct! Spot on!
Deletei agree! kung maaalala nyo, ang battle cry ng mga makadilaw ay " GOOD WILL ALWAYS TRIUMPH OVER EVIL " kaya si president dgong ang nanalo! hahahaha!
ReplyDeleteThese yellows are afraid when the napoles cases has it's 2nd look.
ReplyDeleteTangnang human rights human rights yan. Nagpapadecente lang ang mga yan. Baboy ako kasi totoo ako at 16 million kaming mga bastos na sumusuporta kay tatay digong.
ReplyDeleteAting isama sa ating dalangin ang ating Presidente dahil ang kanyang matinding kalaban ay mga taong ito na may kaya o may perang pambayad pra siraan ang mabuting adhikain ng Pangulo sa ating bansa at sa mamamayang Pilipino.

ReplyDeleteA big check to that....It's all true...Yellow cronies brought no mercy to Filipinos esp. the less fortunates...They're all self centered...Descent looks & words were all for front acting only...The truth behind is they're all hypocrites who used every power for self advancement without looking on what is the real needs Filipinos...Needs which people waited for decades but were never been granted to them for the past administrations...Now it's time for us to rise from our worst frustrations. Godbless to Pres. Duterte & all his cabinet staffs...
