G-SPAT
Grace Bandoy

Do you really believe in survey results? I just don’t get how in the world can five or 10 or 20 thousand people allegedly surveyed can represent the whole of humanity or well, the Filipino race. It’s just impossible, there’s no way.

Ilang beses na nating napatunayan kung gaano kasinungaling mga surveys na yan. We shouldn’t believe those stupid surveys anymore. Matatalino na ang mga voters ngayon.

Those surveys are obvious manipulations to make us believe in stuff that aren’t true. We proved those surveys wrong countless times already. GMA wasn’t a survey frontrunner when she was running for president and yet she became leader of our country twice.

John Kerry led in almost all of the popularity surveys in the U.S. for presidency but lost to the world’s surprise and never became president. So why the hell must we believe all these surveys they’re bringing out. Even the U.S. with allegedly the most credible survey conductor fouled up, eh di lalo na dito sa Pilipinas na garapalan ang corruption. The price of a survey result comes cheap, well maybe not that cheap. but there is a price.

I truly believe that those surveys are paid for by people who have the money and power to produce a survey result favorable to them. It’s that simple. For us who can recognize when we’re just being played, we know surveys are just a bunch of bullshit. But for the gazillions of masa out there who think that Willie Revillame is a god, sorry na lang tayo. The fate of our nation lies in the hands ng mga masang ito.

And when ABS-CBN tells them that Manny Villar is the answer to making all their dreams come true and he is on top of the survey, then Manny Villar it is. Willie and ABS CBCN, they are gods, what they say the masa blindly believes and follows. It’s the bitter reality. Hate it or love it, we all have to live with it. Wala tayong magagawa diyan.

My god even pinoys living abroad dream of nothing but coming home and guesting in Wowowee! Yes ladies and gentlemen, that’s how ‘massive’ (cheap) we pinoys have become. Lahat ng bata ngayon ang pangarap sa buhay mag artista. Everybody just wants to be seen on TV singing or dancing or playing in Willie of Fortune.

People died for Nora and Vilma during the 70’s but these fanatics never sold their souls for 10 cents. They weren’t desperate then, compared to how we are now.

Ngayon, bayaran ka ng sampung pisong pandesal para mag rally sa kalsada, go!

Sabihin sa yong kainin mo kahit ano para ma - extra ka sa pelikula ni Piolo, go! I-utos ni Ted Failon si Erap iboto niyong president, go! Isigaw ni Willie na mali kayong lahat siya lang ang tama, go! Sabihin ni Kris Aquino na papa si Noynoy at hindi bading, go! I-deklara ni Manny Pacquiao na siya ang pinakamagandang lalaki sa buong mundo, go!

Oh how the pinoys have grown backwards. We should be proud, yeah! We are now a bunch of idiots believing in the dictates of popularity surveys, of the pinakasikat na mga TV personalities and artistas, of tabloids and gossip talk shows. We shouldn’t be surprised if one day Manila becomes Manillywood.

We totally lost our common sense, our pride and the littlest self-respect we have that can’t be bought by a dalawang pisong kendi. If you let those stupid surveys tell you who the next president is going to be, then bakit pa tayo boboto kung sinabi na sa survey na si Willie ang susunod na president di ba? I don’t know how we can slap the Filipinos back into being an intelligent race, but we can pray like hell for a miracle. Or maybe the more intelligent ones here can unite and become the masa for once, remember the revolution powered by the middle class and upper classes of our country that ousted the pinaka Hari ng Masa that is Erap?! Otherwise, we sit down…relax…and watch Pilipinas spiral down into the deepest bowels of hell with no turning back. Enjoy the ride folks!
