Yellows Repeatedly Insisting That It's #RIPDemocracy Makes Their Cause #RIPDilawan

Here's one of Pignoy Ako Blog's latest stupid claims. While I normally IGNORE that idiotic blog and the government is better off chasing after big fish like Maria Ressa -- but I thought of using this picture against those who believe it. They are still continuing to hashtag #RIPDemocracy since last September 21, 2017 -- which led me to write a joke post that democracy truly died on that day. Then it had me thinking how often it's very easy to tag #RIPDemocracy even when it isn't.

I thought about how democracy itself is a word that can be misused AND abused. It's very easy to say that Philippines is a democracy and Singapore is a communist or dictatorial state (even when it's still a democracy) for the sole reason that one country is overly lenient and the other is strict. Some use the word communist or Nazi without even understanding the differences as defined by world history. Worse, some Filipinos just love to use democracy as an excuse to do what they do -- such as throw garbage anywhere, party all night, be tardy in their workplace, skip classes and in short -- for the love of NOT following simple guidelines.

This is the current sensationalism saying that democracy is dead under President Duterte. But what's ignored is that think if democracy is dead then why are idiotic sites like Change Scamming, Silent No More PH and Pignoy Ako Blog still up and going? Why hasn't the likes of Agot Isidro, Leah Navarro and Maria Josephine Laurio been persecuted by the government for their negative opinions against President Duterte? Why is ABiaS-CBN still up in spite of its hatred against President Duterte? Why was martial law declared in Marawi with proper due process and shared authority? De Lima set up a couple of phony witnesses alongside Edgar Matobato. Ressa herself is using her position as a media CEO to lie to mislead people and the international community. Not to mention she's allegedly involved of several other charges such as filing false documents and tax evasion raps. 

Continuing to insist that democracy is dead yet they're allowed to enjoy their blunder is making them all the more irrelevant. If anything died it's not Philippine democracy -- it's the Philippine DEMOCRAZY that's dead. Gone will be the days when people can have no curfew for underaged people, gone are the days of public smoking, gone are the days when you can litter with little or no penalty, gone are the days when you can party hard all you want at the cost of your neighbor's activities, having the Commission on Human Rights defend the guilty offenders over the human rights of the offended -- these should NEVER be allowed in a healthy democracy.
