In a land where humor supposedly reigns, Filipino entertainers have somehow mistaken body-shaming for comedy gold.
Who could forget Vice Ganda’s infamous concert moment, where ridiculing Jessica Soho’s weight became the highlight? Throw in a distasteful “rape” joke, and you’ve got the perfect recipe for comedic disaster.
These entertainers, with their razor-sharp tongues seem to believe that poking fun at someone’s physique is the pinnacle of humor, eagerly cheered on by audiences whose laughter echoes their own cluelessness.
Perhaps it’s time for these comedians to step off the stage and enroll in a crash course on empathy—or better yet, comedy that doesn’t punch down. After all, there’s nothing funny about degrading others for a cheap laugh.
Most Filipinos link Kingdom of Jesus Christ Pastor Apollo Quiboloy to Rodrigo Duterte whom he has recently appointed as administrator.
However, the appointed “son of God” has been identified with other earthly politicians, among them Gibo Teodoro, the late PNoy, and former President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo.
We wonder if any Bongbong Marcos connection would surface soon.
