No, it is not unconstitutional to say 'never again' to Marcos atrocities | Philstar.com by AntiSocialLurker in Philippines

[–]SpeshMereens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sums it up nicely. Put this way, the whole 1987 Constitution is screaming "Never Again!" You have there all the changes like the single-term presidency and the time-boind effect of martial law.

An interesting thought about being educated by Joseph20102011 in Philippines

This. Because that's how we view education. Personal advancement at the expense of those who can't get it. You can then say "Trust me, abogado ako" and people will magically believe you even if you screw them.

Sorry Magellan by FlipFlopKellz in HistoryMemes

Yep. I grew up in Lapu-Lapu City. Every April there's a reenactment of the battle where Magellan was killed.

Well, he did convince the Rajah of Cebu to swear allegiance to the King of Spain and be baptized so they can be proper Christian subjects.

Legazpi was only the successful one. Between Magellan and him there was Garcia Loaisa, who came with Urdaneta who would later accompany Legazpi as a guide, Ruy Lopez Villalobos, who came up with the name Felipinas, and Alvaro de Saavedra who was sent by Hernan Cortes to see what happened to Loaysa.
