Confuse and divide. Then conquer.

The Venable Contract

I found this discussion while looking for that topic. As usual, I was too busy being awed by the flaming to think straight. (read the thing here: http://www.pcij.org/blog/?p=391 ) Oof... If this was a real debate I'd probably lose. >.< You don't admire the enemy during battle. It's distracting.

ha ha! Anu mang panlalait niyo kay pandak, the fact remains that naisahan kayong lahat. It’s not the president who is ta-tanga-tanga, it’s the Filipino people — a people who can’t even get their own representatives (officials Filipinos ELECTED to office) to represent their will.
So far, the President has proven her skill as a politician (regardless of how one PRESUMES to judge her). Your little voices of dissent are fast fading. The sputter that you call a protest rally led by Madame Edsa Revolution herself is a foreboding of the slow death that extra-constitutional FIESTA activism is headed — down the crapper.

History is usually written in favour of the winner no matter how vile their ascent to supremacy. So pasensya na lang kayo. It’s only a matter of time before the Filipino’s world-renowned amnesia kicks in and new editions of history books that hit the shelves will tell a rosy picture of the years 2004-2005 to the next generation of Pinoy youth.

We’ve already proven our time and again how short our memories and how gullible we are. This is evident in how so many Marcos cronies and family members to this day make a playground of our little islands nation and thumb their noses at our muted outrage. Something I present in living colour in the following short article:

Stidi na lang kayo diyan. At kesa mag kamot ng ulo mag-damag wondering about how we were so efficiently blindsided, mag-trabaho na lang kayo.

To which Duck Vader replied:

So, Benigno, ano point mo: na tanga Pilipino? Ano solusyon mo - “Mag-trabaho na lang kayo”? You’re not contributing anything to the intelligent debate about how to identify and solve the problem — other than by maligning people due to what you perceive as your superior, although in reality largely regurgitated, ideas.

Admittedly, some of your observations are valid, but your analysis is very shallow and misses the real causes and solutions, and is often overshadowed by your racist diatribes. For instance, you say tanga ang Pilipino. My next question to you is: Bakit siya tanga? Is it genetic, preordained by God, or by some other factors. If it’s “cultural” as you say, then culture is created by one, or two things (if you agree with Edward Wilson) — the environment in which a person livesand genetics. Now if it is genetic, e di wala na talagang pag-asa. But if it’s the environment, the next question is: what factors? and how do you change those factors considering the vested interests within the political and economic elite against changing it as it perpetuates their dominance?

Sige bata. sagutin mo yan.

I wonder if this Duck Vader guy is a debater. Interesting analysis of things... parang debater style (to build an argument: "just keep asking SO WHAT?...").

There are two things I notice about discussion boards in general: 1. In case of intimidation, be condescending. Never let them think you're inferior. 2. Big words and long sentences in the English language, coupled with observation number 1, makes people think you're smart. (Either you really ARE smart, or just smart enough to appear intellectual... hmm...)

I'll be watching The Corpse Bride on Saturday with Ate Kit and Ate Chi! Woo~! Hopefully. If mom lets me. No one in my family is interested to watch. Boo.

Ate Kit: What? Really?! No way!
Me: Yup...
Ate Chi: You're born in the wrong family, dear.
Me: As far as the movie goes, I do think so...

If all goes well, I'll be gone in the morning, just in time to spend my afternoon on Bianca's birthday. Happy birthday dearie.
