Democracy is the road to socialism - KM

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

Though not in substance, yet in form, the struggle of the proletariat with the bourgeoisie is at first a national struggle. The proletariat of each country must, of course, first of all settle matters with its own bourgeoisie.

- Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

@DinoWebReact Your point being?

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

Philippines can never be genuinely independent as long as the claws of US imperialism continuously grips the country. Mutual Defense Treaty, JUSMAG, VFA, EDCA, and now Pax Silica are the US' boots pinning the country's neck down to the ground.

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

Huh???? There seems to be no sense in what you're saying.

[Abolisyonista @abolisyonista]

Uhuh. Confuse and demobilize the ND mass base through integration into the left wing of fascism, abandoning urban poor and then claiminhg ND dissidents posthoc like Kadamay was the tendency's vanguard against the drug war. Brilliant strategy comrade.

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

"I am not a Filipino for nothing" - this doesn't make sense to me. What does it mean?

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

@JPropTarts She's an economist, yeah, a neoliberal economist to be precise. She served the interests of monopolies and oligarchs. And yes, she served her personal interests above all.

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

Also, get as much resources and utilize it for the democratic struggles of the people. It is part of the parliamentary struggles in the urban centers of the country. I speak of the NDs of course, Akbayan is a different story.

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

Participating in electoral struggles is right opportunism if it's the end to the means. However, ND participation in elections has particular objectives: expose the system's rottenness from within, expand and consolidate, and build alliances with progressive and patriotic forces.

[Abolisyonista @abolisyonista]

Akbayan/NDs are like, NDs/Akbayan does right-opportunism? That pales in comparison to our tactical right-opportunism, which achieves gains, and then not achieve anything.

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

Noong pinakulong nila si De Lima hindi sila pumayag na makasama sya sa mga diskusyon sa senado, ngayonng kaalyado nila ang nakakulong at pugante dapat daw kasama sa mga diskusyon? Paano mo pasasamahin yung pugante e nagtatago nga?

DUTERTE: ISAMA ANG MGA NAKAKULONG AT NAGTATAGONG SENADOR SA PAG-UUSAP

WATCH: Vice President Sara Duterte says all 24 senators should sit down and discuss the Senate's priorities and constitutional mandate as one institution.

She added that those who are currently jailed and in hiding should also be part of the discussion.

Senator Jinggoy Estrada is under detention on graft and plunder charges, while Senator Ronald "Bato" Dela Rosa remains in hiding following the issuance of an ICC arrest warrant against him for crimes against humanity. | @TristanNodalo

@ElizaX11235813 @gmanews If there is a quorum of 12 they can transact official business like act on pending legislative measures, then they can definitely elect a new set of Senate officers with the exception of the Senate presidency which requires an absolute majority of 13 votes.

Ang tindi naman ng spin nito, black prop agad? Nahilo ka na kaka-spin ng mga kwento e ano?

[Nico Quejano @nicoquejano]

Salamat po for confirming black prop against Risa Hontiveros.

Good luck po sa ND sa paninira kay Risa. ☺️

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

@asv_astudios Binasa mo ba yang "niresearch" mo?

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

Ah ganun ba? E matagal ng Liberal yan si Digong e, bakit hindi kinondena ng Liberal si Digong? Kasama pa nilang mangampanya para kay Noynoy-Mar ang mag-ama.

Isa pa, sino ang nagtaas ng kamay ni Digong noong 2010? ND endorsed Grace Poe that time.

[ᵀᴵᵀᴼ ᴶ @kolsenertito]

lol Digong HAS ALWAYS BEEN a warlord. Late 80s pa ang Davao Death Squad.
Tapos itataas nyo kamay in the 2010s? Kala ko ba babad kayo sa masa? Di nyo tinanong mga lumad?

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

Ano na naman ba ang problema mo @kolsenertito? Wala ka bang makain?

[ᵀᴵᵀᴼ ᴶ @kolsenertito]

So you agree na ipokrito nga kayo?

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

@kolsenertito Kaya huwag mong ipagyabang yang "panalo" nyo sa eleksyon dahil kayo ang totoong oportunista at hayok sa posisyon.

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

Huh??? As if sa eleksyon lang umiikot ang mundo ng ND? Alam mo @kolsenertito ito ang isaksak mo sa kukote mo, hindi eleksyon ang primary form of struggle, ni hindi nga yan ang primary form of parliamentary struggle. Manalo o matalo tuloy lang ang ND sa trabaho nito.

[ᵀᴵᵀᴼ ᴶ @kolsenertito]

Oh, ND endorsed Grace Poe.
Kaya pala walang nananalo sa inyo sa Senado kasi gaya ng lahat na trapo, balimbing din kayo. It’s never about the people or the masses. That’s why you’re still here.

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

@kolsenertito Isa pa, sa lahat ng partido pulitijal aa bansa tanging ang ND lang ang nakararanas ng pandaraya, matinding red-tagging at pasismo ng estado. Mismo nga mga akbayan nire-redtag ang Makabayan. Kahit mga base nito sa mga probinsya inaatake ng militar.

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

@yogawithben Oh, you know what I mean. Don't be naive.

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

Teddy says we should expand and explore alternative progressive movts rather than fall into the trap of the two colliding ruling elites. If your point of bringing up the past is to justify your idea of conniving with the BBM admin then it's you who didn't learn from the past.

[Ben Bernabe @yogawithben]

Sorry for the disrespect pero sana you told yourselves that in 2010, 2013, and 2016. Hirap nyo nang paniwalaan ngayon, kasi your actions speak louder than words. Hilig nyong magpontificate dito, how about self-reflection? Baka hindi kami ang dapat i-challenge. Baka you need to ask yourself why nahihirapan kayo to strengthen and expand your base. Baka kayo ang may pagkakamali?

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

Ang sabihin mo, naghahanap lang kayo ng defense mechanism para sa political opportunism nyo na makipag alliance sa BBM admin.

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

@cinecinecine30 Alam mo ba ang ibig sabihin ng ratio decidendi at obiter dictum? Alam mo ba ang ibig sabihin ng SC Resolution?

[Richard 🇵🇭 🏀 @chuckpogi]

Proud sa kabobohan o paid para maging bobo?

[cinecinecine30 @cinecinecine30]

ang avelino vs cuenco pala ay isang resolution HINDI DECISION.

susme. tindi niyo manloko.
