Wow, Agot Isidro!

Agot Isidro
I have always liked Agot Isidro – her lovely face, her intelligent acting and the dignified manner she conducts herself in showbusiness.

Her Facebook post last Friday – the 100th day of the Duterte presidency- made me admire her more.
This post by Agot has gone viral liked by 24,000 and shared by 7,836:

“ Unang-una, walang umaaway sa iyo. As a matter of fact, ikaw ang nang-aaway.

“Pangalawa, yung bansa Kung saan ka inuluklok ng 16 million out of 100+ million people ay Third World. Kung makapagsalita ka parang superpower and pilipinas eh. At excuse me, ayaw namin magutom. Mag-isa ka na Lang. wag kang mandamay. Hindi na nga nakakain ang nakararami, gugutumin mo pa lalo.

“ Pangatlo, may kilala akong psychiatrist. Patingin ka. Hindi ka bipolar. You are a psychopath. “

Agot didn’t mention any name but everybody knew who she was referring to.

Last week, President Duterte stepped up his tirade against the United States and President Barack Obama, the European Union and the United Nations for their public statements of concern over the unabated killings related to his campaign to eradicate illegal drugs.

From “Putang Ina”, “Fuck You”, “Go to Hell,” “Go to Purgatory,” Duterte announced that he is thinking of invalidating the PH-US Enhanced Defense Cooperation or EDCA because it was not former President Benigno Aquino III who signed it.

Somebody please tell him that Presidents need not sign executive agreements as long as the signatory is authorized by him and he ratifies the accord.

Duterte also said that he can do away with assistance from the United States and European Union. Anyway, he is strengthening relations with China and Russia. He is going on state visit to China on Oct. 18 to 21.

But just two months ago, he was praising the generosity of the Americans, albeit with nasty side remarks, when he told the soldiers that through the visiting U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, the United States was giving the Philippines $32 million.

He said Kerry is okay but not the U.S. Ambassador Phillip Goldberg, whom he said he is ”bwisit” because of the envoy’s comment critical of his foul remark that he should have been first to rape the Australian missionary who was abused and killed by prisoners in Davao in 1989.

He said: “So, that Kerry, nu’ng pumunta siya dito, nagkain kami. Iniwanan pa kami ni Delfin (Defense Secretary Lorenzana) ng $33 million. Okay ito ah. Bastusin natin ulit para mag-areglo itong buang na it. Pera pala ito. Pera-pera lang.”

When these comments came out, the U.S. Embassy in Manila clarified that “The U.S. funding of $32 million in question is not new funding, but rather cumulative funding previously appropriated that we are currently implementing.” In other words, it’s not because of Duterte that they were giving the $32 million.

The Embassy also stressed that “Assistance provided by these funds is subject to the same rigorous vetting as our other security assistance. All of our security assistance promotes human rights through training content and by promoting professionalism, due process, and the rule of law.” Meaning, given the Duterte government’s blatant disregard of human rights, it’s doubtful that the money would be released.

Agot hit the nail on the head with her third comment: “May kilala akong psychiatrist. Patingin ka. Hindi ka bipolar. You are a psychopath. “

A subsequent post by Agot was a link to a Sept. 29, 2012 issue of Psychology Today with an article, “Who Are You Calling a Psychopath?” by Susan Krauss Whitbourne Ph.D.

The article said. “… an essential component of psychopathy is the quality they call fearless dominance, a tendency toward boldness that includes such traits as a desire to dominate social situations, charm, willingness to take physical risks, and an immunity to feelings of anxiety.”

That issue of Psychology Today had for its cover article, “The Narcissist.”

It’s worth recalling that one of the pieces of evidence submitted to the court in the annulment case filed by Duterte’s former wife, Elizabeth Zimmerman, was psychological assessment report prepared by Dr. Natividad Dayan, former president of the International Council of Psychologists, published by ABS-CBN last April during the campaign.

Dayan said Duterte “was suffering from ‘Antisocial Narcissistic Personality Disorder,’ with aggressive features with his gross indifference, insensitivity and self-centeredness, his grandiose sense of self-entitlement, his manipulative behaviors, his lies and his deceits as well as his pervasive tendency to demean, humiliate others and violate their rights and feelings.”

Dayan concluded: “From all indications, Rodrigo’s personality disturbance, which constitutes his psychological incapacity, is deemed serious, incurable and with antecedents.”

    ang tapang ni agot isidro! now, I’m waiting what digong’s staunch supportes na sina robin padilla at vice ganda will say.

    I hope agot isidro will not end up sa narco list.

    Sigurado binu-bully si Agot ng nananampalataya sa Poong Digong.

    Mabuhay Agot, Pinas needs more of you!

    May napansin ako dito sa article ng “The Narcissist” lalo na yung “willing to take physical risks.” Hanggang ngayon kasi di pa rin siya nag request ng jetski. Pangalawa di pa sin siya naghahamon ng barilan o suntukan sa mga behong bastos na nakahompil ngayon sa WPS.

    Kahit samapalan siguro iiwas ng itong tukmol na Duterte na ito.

    But on the other hand with regards to the “willing to take physical risks” Duterte is licking ng ass of China and China loves it a lot.

    i have to admire Agot for telling directly what kind of person we have as president now. it is easy for pinoys outside pinas (like me) to say something against this bully. i hope more and more can do as she did. we can never build the pinas we love out of hate.

    sosyal pa nga ang dating ng terminong “psychopath.” sa lenggwaheng kanto ay BUANG o BALIW yang si duterte.

    sana nga si mar roxas na lamang ang naging presidente. siguro, wala siyang mga batikos na matatanggap dahil hindi niya papakialaman ang paglaganap ng kriminalidad bunga nang malawakang pagkalat ng ilegal na droga. wala ring CHR at CBCP na mananawagan upang pangalagaan ang karapatan ng mga kriminal na walang awang pumapatay matapos mang-rape o magnakaw.

    tuloy ang ligaya ng mga mambobola, maninisi, mahilig mangako at higit sa lahat mga manhid sa karaingan ng mga biktima ng mga kalamidad.

    sayang!

  7. Mag-move on ka na Magno. Matagal nang tapos ang eleksyon. Presidente na si Duterte. Wala namang may gusto yata dito kay Roxas. LOL.

  8. Agot wasn’t the first to call him a psychopath. South China Morning Post’s Manjit Bhatia was the first to do so, in his article Duterte’s war on drugs in the Philippines can’t hide his policy incompetence.

    Few can deny Duterte’s ugliness – from his crude nationalist populism and foul mouth to his mania for gun-toting, bloodthirsty vigilantism. So, is he just a bad boy or a psychopath?

    Sigurado ba si Agot na hindi siya nagpro-‘project’?

    #7 tongue, huwag kang ganyan sa idol ko, ha?

    kahit ganu’n yun, talagang ganu’n na yung kupal na yun. lesteng i-congratulate pa kaming mga nasunugan at nangawalan ng tirahan noong zamboanga siege? kung hindi ba naman siya inutil at kalahati, pati yung rehabilitation ng yolanda victims ay ginawa nilang “pangako sa’yo?”

  11. Kung may contest ng Kupal of the Decade malamang si Mar ang nanalo. Lahat ng palpak doon sa departamento niya pinakamarami pati na dun sa DOTC na wala yatang tamang nagawa hanggang yung recommended successor niya. Silang dalawa ni Abaya humila pababa sa anumang gains ang naiwan ng administrasyon ni Kalbo.

    tigas talaga ng ulo mo, ah?

    huwag sasabihan ang P.I. na idol ko, ha? maraming nagawa yun pati si donkey soliman, baka hindi mo alam?

    isa siya sa mga dahilan kung bakit wala ng tirahan ang libolibong taga Sta. Barabara, Zamboanga City kabilang na kami na naging dahilan ng maagang kamatayan ng aking maybahay.

    sa halip na pakinabangan ang mga relief goods, ay hinayaan nilang mangabulok at ang ipinamigay sa mga evacuees ay yung bulok na pagkaing kahit baboy at aso ay hindi gagalawin.

    hanggang ngayon ay walang matinong hanapbuhay at pabahay ang mga biktima ng kalamidad dahil walang ayuda galing sa gobyerno ni ngoyngoy, at kung meron man ay hindi nakarating sa mga kinauukulan dahil kinurakot ng kanilang mga galamay sa local governments.

    marami pang maidadagdag na accomplishments ni mar roxas at kung iisaisahin natin dito ay baka mahilo tayo sa sama ng loob dahil hindi ka mauubusan ng p.t.ng i.a.

    kaya, dahan dahan ka sa pamimintas sa tarantadong idol ko, ha?
