RE: Legitimacy and legality - a dance with two leg(s)

in #politics8 years ago

I think all of us have the same problem with our leaders of today. President Duterte had killed people without due process even before he won the election. Sixteen million catholics have voted on him because of his promises that he did not accomplish. The anti- drug war which killed many innocent children in the Philippines while letting go of the drug lord, plunderer ex-president, and supporting the National Police who were behind the death of a witness. He's much of a liar, disrespectful exactly the opposite of former President Aquino. I did not vote on him though.

Sort:  

I agree that all of us have the same problem with our leaders, no accountability, widespread institutionalized corruption (lobbying for example), forcing neoliberal economic policies and fighting crime mostly by letting the higher-ups walk free while incarcerating low-level criminals that often don’t have much choice than to turn to crime as a means of living. I’ve read about Duterte and what he is doing and there are no words to express the horrors he is responsible for.
