Today is September 21 and the memories of the WELL-DOCUMENTED dark era of the Marcos Years come to mind. However, it's stupid to keep on criticizing the dictator Ferdinand E. Marcos Sr. if you continue to support economic protectionism. Why is it stupid? It was economic protectionism that actually gave Marcos' cronies their power. Now, the Filipino commies will always take whatever opportunity they have for their lame virtue signaling. The Oxford dictionary defines virtue-signaling as, "the action or practice of publicly expressing opinions or sentiments intended to demonstrate one's good character or the moral correctness of one's position on a particular issue." Dictionary.com also states it as, "the sharing of one's point of view on a social or political issue, often on social media, in order to garner praise or acknowledgment of one’s righteousness from others who share that point of view, or to passively rebuke those who do not". Doesn't that sound like what the Filipino commies are doing with their lame virtue signaling?
The Filipino commies want to make it look like they sound to be the most moral, caring, nationalistic people ever. They have all their expressing of their views to make it look like they care about the country. They say this and that online such as the recent protest against the creation of the China-backed DITO telecommunications company. Before that, they had all their objections against foreign investments. They also have their voice against the COVID-19 borrowing since debt is a real problem if left unpaid. They also have all their protests against this and that trying to make it look like they care. But as said, beware, these guys aren't really nationalists as they claim - they're just hungry for power.
Consider the irony that they love communism while they hate Communist China at the same time. Those idiots protest here and there against China yet the country could remain as their ticket towards legalization of their party. Shouldn't they be welcoming Chinese investors instead to help them in their cause? It makes me laugh that members of the New People's Army are using MAC Pro laptops to spread their agenda rather than Huawei laptops. Consider how Sarah Elago of Kayabangan Partylist uses an i-Phone-X rather than a Huawei smartphone. They hate China, sure, but they are lifting Mao Zedong's picture up. Mao is from CHINA. Mao is the founder of COMMUNIST China. Yet, they hate China while loving communism. Isn't it ironic? They could've welcomed Chinese investors with open arms, buy Huawei gadgets to help them in their cause, get firearms from China, and the like. Yet, isn't it ironic that they are against China?
The talk against foreign investment and capitalism is truly lame. Neri Colmenares demonstrates his long-loser mentality by saying that foreign investors will destroy local businesses. However, consider the real irony that they promote economic protectionism with imported products. Worse, consider the stupidity of hating capitalism while loving its products. Even funnier is that they cry foul against the USA but they're on American-made platforms. I find it ironic at how Renato Reyes Jr. himself was seen drinking a Coke float, shopping in S&R, and that his family lives a comfortable life in capitalist democratic Canada. Jose Maria Sison is seeking asylum in the Netherlands which is a capitalist democratic country. All the talk against foreign investment and capitalism while using imported, capitalist products (and buying them from local capitalist centers) makes them idiotic. Guess what? It was capitalism and not socialism that gave good quality relief goods. The relief goods given by the Filipino communists most likely didn't pass through safety standards. That's why relief operations need to be registered with the government.
Maybe, we can also talk about how the COVID-19 crisis has gotten a lot of lame virtue signals exposed. Colmenares, for example, is always talking about the debt during COVID-19 but doesn't have any solutions. They want to get the debt paid back but they're against foreign investment. Bantay Nakaw criticizes the current administration citing Taiwan but they're also against foreign investment. They cite first world countries' successes while rejecting the SYSTEM that made those countries work. I wonder how do they even propose to get the money back? Let it rain gold coins? There's a joke I hear that commies don't know how to count basic arithmetic. They protest against the Manila Bay rehabilitation saying, "Bugas hindi buhangin!" It's NOT the job of any democratic government to provide for the basic needs of the people. Rather, the democratic government should provide policies that will encourage people to work for their needs - not turn the countrymen into parasites. Worse, they apply their double standard with their rallying. They considered themselves "more righteous" than the dumb cop Debold Sinas when they rallied at UP-Diliman. Worse, they showed that they prioritized ABiaS-CBN's renewal over COVID-19. They want to make it look like they're not at fault and that everything should be blamed on the current government.
This is really something when Filipino commies are becoming more inconsistent with their stand. If they want to claim consistency - they are consistent at BEING INCONSISTENT. Their virtue signals just showing off at how stupid they truly are while thinking they are smarter than everybody else.
