I’m not sure how many times I attempted to start this write-up (or rather rant)<\/strong> because in the previous weeks I simply couldn’t get in the mood to do it. Do not expect a literary masterpiece either. Regardless of the immense frustration deriving from the worldwide onslaught of political hypocrisy<\/strong> (and in many cases utter arbitrariness) being imposed by the various “new world health regimes”, I felt compelled to leave a message in the face of the Philippine Independence Day<\/strong>, 12th of June 2020.<\/p>\n

Happy Independence Day! Well, the last time I checked, not much of that independence is currently in effect…<\/em><\/p>\n

Let’s celebrate the inauguration of this prison state 2.0<\/h2>\n

Frankly, what we are facing is surreal. Not only does the Philippines hold the world record in enforcing the most prolonged lockdown. These are times where people see themselves being bombarded with arbitrary decisions made in the name of health<\/strong> (or god, who knows – irony, here we go). These are also times where people have to fight to make their voices heard against political abominations like the anti-terrorism bill<\/strong>, designed to ass fuck the general public even harder. And yet, in these times, a handful of people appear to be celebrating INDEPENDENCE DAY.<\/p>\n

Now, to put this in the right perspective: My frustration is not directed at the general public. Instead, it is directed at the morons in charge that come up with these nonsensical measures that put us in this mess in the first place (and ultimately incite people against each other).<\/p>\n

Got your muzzle on?<\/h2>\n

When checking some stuff on the web today, it was puzzling to read that some street parades may be taking place. Now, as of the time of this writing, I cannot confirm if these events really took place. However, I did hear festive outdoor music resounding from someplace. In any case, that’s not even the point. If this is true, though, then I wonder how this is possible in the first place when on other days you may see yourself being denounced for not wearing your muzzle correctly.<\/p>\n

Now that I started hitting on that questionable practice of wearing protective masks<\/strong> (these days also conveniently called everyday masks<\/em> to give it that sociable touch): How can it be that street parades are permitted? Is this another poor attempt of portraying a slow return to normality (or as they like to call it, the “New Normal”<\/strong>)?<\/p>\n

Truth be told, I absolutely despise this term, and of course, I am for a return to PRE-normality<\/strong>. However, in times where we have to follow propagandistic social distancing, etc., I wonder how these practices are being implemented during a street parade. So, in the end, we are faced with yet another hypocrite decision.<\/p>\n

The pandemic is over!<\/h2>\n

As in every corner of the world, there are plenty of people brainwashed by what their governments and mainstream media feed them. These sheep following the herd may very well call me a conspiracy theorist<\/strong>. Indeed, this is a rather interesting term and should be awarded word of the year (unless we want to be so uninspired and just go with “corona”). A few remarks:<\/p>\n
