‘DISABILITY IS NEVER A PUNCHLINE. CRUELTY IS NEVER COMEDY’
House Committee on Women and Gender Equality Chairperson Ann Matibag condemned the offensive remarks of the hosts of the podcast “Machong Chismisan” against Kris Aquino’s son, Josh.
“As a mother, I am deeply angered by the public ridicule directed at Josh Aquino, a person with disability. As a children's rights advocate and a woman leader, I find it appalling that grown men would turn someone's disability into entertainment. There is nothing funny, brave, or masculine about mocking someone who may not be in a position to defend himself. That is not humor. That is cruelty,” she said in a statement on Wednesday.
In the podcast, the hosts called Josh “walang kwenta” and compared him to his brother Bimby.
“I stand with Josh Aquino, his mother Kris, and every family fighting for the dignity and protection of their loved ones. This is not simply about one podcast or one offensive remark,” she added. (Facebook/Ann Matibag)

First meeting she was a pickpocket
Second meeting she was a maid
Now she’s a mistress and an interpreter. He knows very well that she’s the most dubious person ever, she lies and steals from him and now she’s involved with a married man but I don’t think that’s going to stop him from falling head over heels for her.
This forbidden romance is going to eat so bad!!!
