Since When Did Being Born Tagalog Grant Anyone A Doctorate In Philippine Expertise?


Once again, it's time for my shorts hehe. This one is taken from GRP Pundit yet again which talks about the problem of Imperial Manileneos who think that they are "experts" of the Philippines. If I was targeting on Americans who think they're already experts of the Philippines then I could talk about Imperial Manileneos who act themselves as such. What's worse such people are even racist towards their own fellow Filipinos while falsely accusing others of being racist.

Here's something I could say towards those Imperial Tagalogs living in Manila: Were they even born with a doctorate in Philippine studies from their mothers' wombs? Even if they graduated as political analysts or even lawyers from hard to enter schools but experience outweighs academic diploma. A person can get a master's degree or even a doctorate degree being an expert is a lifelong work. Yes, it's possible to even get a doctorate but you're still emotionally stuck in kindergarten. I don't care too much about academic achievement if common sense were left behind in kindergarten.

I can't say too much about the martial law extension on whether or not it'll be beneficial. IMO, the problem is far from over. Just because Marawi is liberated that it means the work is over. Repairing the city is now the next priority. Every victory means a new assignment to be done. No, it's not advisable to even leave the city as a museum as Leni Loud would suggest it. It's time to repair it and it's not going to be easy. Rebuilding the city won't be an easy task and there may be remnants of allies of the Maute family still up to no good.

Martial law with constitutional restrictions (as to avoid anyone from abusing their power) may be the best answer for now. Having military intervention in a war-torn city while building up its defense may be the best solution for now. Hopefully, the government comes up with a good solution and system to increase Philippine national defense.
