And, just to set the record straight, I was also very much against what US did to Filipinos in the 1890s and post 1946. The US gave our country independence bec it didn't want to reconstruct Manila. What $$$ they gave went mainly to the US-held companies.
This is what I meant when I said we effing need a BRAND NEW textbook on Philippine history covering post 1972. Being anti-US in the 1990s didn't mean being pro-China. It's being pro-Filipino.

This was done on purpose to prevent rallies on Bonifacio Day.
It’s truly unfortunate that Andres Bonifacio’s monument is placed on a small rotunda intersecting two major highways. Its line-of-sight is blocked by LRT-1 and surrounding it are ugly establishments. Worse, people cannot go near the monument itself due to heavy vehicular traffic.

«Cada huelga recuerda a los capitalistas que los verdaderos dueños no son ellos, sino los obreros, que proclaman con creciente fuerza sus derechos. Cada huelga recuerda a los obreros que su situación no es desesperada y que no están solos» "Sobre las huelgas", V.I. Lenin (1899).

Cantata a la muerte de Lenin 1. El día que murió Lenin, un soldado de la guardia, según se cuenta, les dijo a sus camaradas: Yo no quería creerlo. Fui donde estaba y le grité al oído: Ilich, ahí vienen los explotadores. Pero no se movió. Entonces supe que de verdad había muerto. 2. Si un hombre bueno se quiere ir, ¿cómo puedes detenerlo? Haciéndole ver que es útil. 3. ¿Qué podría detener a Lenin? 4. El soldado pensó: Si escucha que llegan los explotadores, por más enfermo que esté, se levantará. Aunque sea en muletas. Aunque sea cargado. Pero se levantará y vendrá a luchar contra los explotadores. 5. El soldado sabía que Lenin había peleado toda su vida contra los explotadores. 6. Después del asalto al Palacio de Invierno,el soldado quiso volver a su casa, porque las tierras de los latifundistas estaban siendo repartidas. Entonces, Lenin le dijo: Quédate, todavía hay explotadores. Y mientras haya explotación hay que luchar contra ella. Mientras tú existas, tienes que luchar contra ella. 7. Hay hombres que luchan un día y son buenos. Hay otros que luchan un año y son mejores. Hay quienes luchan muchos años y son muy buenos. Pero hay los que luchan toda la vida: Esos son los imprescindibles. (1935)

JUST IN: Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva will make a historic first visit to the Philippines on Nov. 14-15, at the invitation of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. The state visit coincides with the 80th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the Philippines and Brazil and comes ahead of the 49th Asean Summit, which the Philippines will host as chair. Marcos has also invited Lula to take part in the 49th Asean Summit Plenary as Guest of the Chair. Brazil is a sectoral dialogue partner of Asean. Marcos and Lula are expected to discuss stronger cooperation in trade and investment, agriculture, energy, science and technology, defense, and other areas, as both countries seek to deepen ties and strengthen engagement among Global South nations. | @dexcabalzaINQ

高市政府はトランプと結託し、韓国政府も米帝に従属し、その反中国・反朝鮮人民共和国路線に従っている。 このような政府といくら平和アピールを採択しても、労働者を欺くだけだ! 労働者の力しかない!11月7日のソウル労働者デモで、我々の同志はハングルで「米帝との同盟を断絶せよ!」と訴えた。
ソウル宣言が、「政党は、分断を乗り越え、世界が競合するブロックに分かれて固定化するのを防ぐ」と強調したことは、いま北東アジアで起こっているブロック対立の危険という事態にてらして、きわめて大きな意義をもつものです。 日本政府は、アジアの主要政党が集まった国際会議でこうした宣言が採択された重みをしっかりと受け止めるべきです。 jcp.or.jp/akahata/aik26/2026…

共産主義運動が深刻な危機にある。 重要な原因の一つは、多くの共産主義組織がトロツキーのソ連論を捨てたことにある: 米日帝国主義に屈服し、偉大な1949年革命によって誕生した中華人民共和国を、官僚に反対しながら防衛する立場を放棄したことだ。 積極的な議論が必要だ!

IN PHOTOS: Student and youth leaders from various organizations launched the Youth Against Pax Silica (YAPAX) alliance announcing the National Day of Action on November 13 against the US-led Pax Silica initiative. The event was held earlier today during a press conference at Vinzons Hall in the University of the Philippines Diliman. The alliance aims to mobilize 10,000 students and youth nationwide through campus demonstrations and collective actions ahead of United States President Donald Trump's visit for the 49th ASEAN Summit. Citing concerns over threats to Indigenous communities, national sovereignty, and the country's natural resources, YAPAX called for an end to negotiations on the proposed framework agreement, and urged the government to prioritize public education, agrarian reform, and national industrialization.

NATIONAL UPDATE: Anti-mining advocate Jesus Cabias Jr. was shot inside his home in Barangay Liwayway, MacArthur, Leyte, at around 8 PM yesterday, November 6. Cabias serves as the spokesperson of a group of MacArthur farmers opposing iron sand mining. In a petition letter dated February 4, the group called on President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to issue an Executive Order to halt mining operations in the area. Cabias has raised concerns over MacArthur Ironsand Mining Corp.'s compliance with its mining permit, particularly its unfulfilled obligation to rehabilitate mining areas. The National Union of Peoples’ Lawyers Tacloban Law Students (NUPL-TAC) said Cabias is currently receiving treatment at a hospital in Tacloban City. Investigations are ongoing to identify the perpetrators and determine the possible motive behind the attack. NUPL-TAC condemned the shooting, saying that there can be no real climate justice while environmental defenders continue to be harmed. #BeyondLoyola

"We are fed up with empty promises.” Thousands of teachers took to the streets in Old San Juan on Thursday for a "March of Teachers' Indignation" to protest unpaid wages and low pensions. The educators are demanding $94 million in teacher career ladder payments from Governor Jenniffer González's government and better working conditions. The teachers’ protest was coordinated in part by the Puerto Rico Teachers Federation and joined by the School Bus Drivers Federation, the United Firefighters Union of Puerto Rico, the Brotherhood of Exempt Non-Teaching Employees of the University of Puerto Rico, the Workers Union of the Puerto Rican University Professors Association and the Independent Union of the Aqueduct and Sewer Authority. According to José Rosado Rolón, president of the School Bus Drivers Federation, the government owes them $9 million for services to the Puerto Rico Department of Education.
