Harry Styles responds to Candace Owens’ criticism of his ‘Vogue’ cover


Wazzup Pilipinas!

Harry Styles shades Candace Owens' 'Bring Back Manly Men' comment in Instagram caption 

He responded to Candace Owens’ criticism of his ‘Vogue’ cover. 

Harry Styles, I didn’t dig you as a teenager, but now I respect your ~style~ & response to critics like Candace Owens. 

Candace is so obsessed with Harry that you can’t convince me Candace wasn’t one of the directioners who Hacked the airport security cameras that one time.

Candace Owens is suing Facebook ‘fact checkers’ for falsely labeling her posts as fake news.

She has a strong case which exposes the fact checkers for precisely what they are – parasitical front groups that exist solely to censor legit dissident content.


Is Harry Styles the manliest man to ever walk the earth!?

Is Candace Owens pathetic?!

They are free to express themselves and we are free to criticize their expressions. Men wearing dresses is never going to be considered normal for many but the said behavior should remain on the fringes of society. We are all free to do what we want, except going against the law, which is again man-made.

For other people, normal is boring. Conservative is boring. Do you realize how radical most are now compared to those a millennium ago? The chronological entitlement could be considered as selfish, not virtuous.




Embracing conservative principles may seem boring, but they tend to encourage human flourishing within the reality of this fallen world. 

When in history is it normal for men to wear dresses? Rugged individualism and dresses don’t mix in the least.

Freedom of expression is based on giving your opinion and saying what you feel, expressing yourself freely. BUT WITHOUT AFFECTING OTHERS !! How does the way they dress affect them, I asked? OMG.

A hundred and something years ago women wearing pants weren't socially  acceptable. In countries such as the US, England, and France even went to jail accused of trying to impersonate men.

Then why do we normalize women wearing suits? Exactly, normalize men wearing dresses.

Why shouldn't it be normal? What is abnormal about it?

Generations change and realize the silly ideas that others have told us and made us believe.

What’s the reason you don’t feel a man wearing a dress is normal? Who gets to define what normal is? You’re absolutely entitled to your opinion, I’d just genuinely would like to understand where these views come from.

You should re-up your 16th century history. Specifically regarding the fashion of that period. Imagine being so threatened by clothes.

Notice how besides their traditional, culture based KILT(not a dress) they are wearing a MEN'S SHIRT AND VEST.

What's the difference between a kilt and a skirt?

Many societies in the past found it acceptable and practical for men to wear dresses. Once french king outlawed wearing heels for all except high ranking noble males. History isn’t on your side and neither is the future.

The problem I have is that women wearing suits is normal and empowering but men wearing dresses is “weird” and “not normal” like what?

And if you can please answer a question Who stipulates that a man cannot dress in "women's clothing"? Do you want to go back to the time where women were repressed? Where the man can only wear pants and jacket?

At the end of the day clothes is just fabric, why should i man not be able to wear a piece of fabric just because of the shape of it? give me ONE good reason why men shouldn’t be able to wear dresses.

There are entire societies where men wear "dresses" or no clothes at all. Are you going to go to  Burma, Scotland, Morocco, Fiji, Togo etc. and share your wisdom?

And for those who are going to a more religious aspect, this is Jesus in his tunic (dress) in case you had doubts. 


#StopTheAttacks: Stop the crackdown of activists

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Randall Echanis was stabbed to death inside his home in August 2020. Now, his daughter Amanda, who just gave birth was illegally arrested & planted with firearms & explosives. Randall & Amanda are both red-tagged by the government. So don't you ever say this is harmless.

Hindi pa man nakakamit ang hustisya para karumal-dumal na pagpatay sa Anakpawis leader at NDFP Peace Consultant na si Randy Echanis - ang anak naman nitong peasant women organizer mula sa AMIHAN-Cagayan na si Amanda Lacaba Echanis ang hinuli at inaresto.

Echanis is currently detained at CIDG Region 2 headquarters, according to Anakpawis.

Not another Reina Nasino. Not another Baby River. 

Free Amanda Echanis and her month-old baby boy! Stop the crackdown of activists in Cagayan Valley!

AMANDA, 34, is a peasant women organizer under AMIHAN Cagayan provincial chapter & the daughter of assassinated peasant leader and peace advocate"Ka Randy Echanis. 

On December 2, Amanda Echanis was illegally arrested along with her month-old baby boy by the combined forces of AFP-PNP in Baggao town, Cagayan and was charged with Illegal Possession of Firearms and Ammunitions and Illegal Possession of Explosives. 

AMIHAN Cagayan Valley and its provincial chapters are usual targets of red-tagging by Duterte's fascist forces in the past years, and Amanda Echanis, was red-tagged as a high-ranking official of New People's Army.

Free Amanda Echanis and her month-old baby boy! Stop the crackdown of activists in Cagayan Valley! 

Various organizations from different sectors condemned the arrest of Echanis and the simultaneous raid of Adviento’s home and are calling for Echanis’ release from wrongful detention.

"We assert that (Amanda) Echanis was arrested on planted evidence. She just gave birth to her first child. We call on her immediate and unconditional release on just, humanitarian grounds," Anakpawis Partylist said.

Today, the AFP and PNP also illegally raided the home of Isabelo 'Buting' Adviento, a fellow peasant-leader of Echanis. They were merely conducting relief operations for affected communities in Cagayan. 

Joint police and military forces of the 29th IB illegally also arrested Datu Danilo Kalinawan in the early hours of December 2. State elements trooped to Datu Kalinawan's house in Barangay Cawilan, Tubod, Surigao del Norte.

Red-baiting is dangerous. At the least, you will be attacked, threatened, and intimidated; and at the maximum, you will be gunned down.

Farmers are the usual victims of state-instigated red-tagging, harassment, and surveillance. Members and leaders in hinterland villages are accused of being people's militia or Milisyang Bayan members.

Many were even forced to surrender under the AFP's institutionalized money-making scheme E-CLIP or Enhanced Community Livelihood Integration Program that entices villagers to surrender and give false information linking progressive groups and organizations to armed groups.

Every firearm, ammunition, and explosive supposedly confiscated or surrendered to the AFP and PNP have monetary equivalent, a minimum of Php65,000 for each firearm. Racket ng militar at pulis ang E-CLIP.

AFP units and battalions have made a big-time racket out of this E-CLIP Balik Loob scheme. Ranking officials of the NTF-ELCAC are masterminds of this E-CLIP racket and red-tagging.

The most convenient charge that can be lodged against illegally arrested activists is the crime of illegal possession of firearms, ammunition, and explosives. This is mainly due to the fact of unavailability of posting bail as a matter of right. 

THIS IS STATE TERRORISM!!!

Just last August, peasant leader Randy Echanis, Amanada Echanis' father, was morbidly murdered. His grieving family & colleagues were harassed. 

Last October, Baby River died after being separated from her young activist mother Reina Nasino.  The burial was closely guarded.

"Some of the most decent, authentic, and brave people of the country are being red-tagged. If you put me with them, I will be honored. " - Sis. Mary John Mananzan


Marapat pakinggan ng gobyerno ang panawagan ng mga aktibista, suriin kung ito ay mali at nagdudulot ng kaguluhan. Ngunit anuman ang maging pagtingin nila sa mga pagkilos, hindi naman nito mapipigilan ang mamamayan na ipaglaban ang karapatan nila. 

As we celebrate International Women Human Rights Defenders Day, join us as we demand for the immediate release of all men and women human rights defenders unjustly incarcerated!

Grab a virtual placard and join the online protest! Mangalampag para sa agarang pagpapalaya nila!
