That's right! It makes perfect sense because:

1. Fascism and Republicanism are like oil and water...they mix in very very well. It's pretty much like science.

2. We need to increase our population! Why? So we can reach the Malthusian limit faster and eat each other for food! Solves two problem: population density and malnutrition. Brilliant!

3. We need to be a superpower militarily so we can create wars and balance the world. Think about it: send all our gays as suicide bombers, have an excuse to drop a nuke in Mindanao, and teach those white people a fu-king lesson! How cool would that be if we were landing on Spanish soil this time around huh, take that Magellan! How about we carpet bomb Tokyo! I mean this is all from an anime right?

4. Mars! Hell yes! Because one place Filipinos haven't illegally entered yet is a different planet! Plus I want to see Martianyukis, because I'm tired of seeing half Japanese kids abandoned in the Philippines!

5. Hell let's annex half of China with that so we can have Szechuan chicken every night. And S. Korea so we can have the Wonder Girls dancing in Malacanang!

6. fu-k economic reform, we'll just take other people's money. We'll designate the dollar as our official toilet paper.

That's ok. Sarcasm is your expertise. Just keep your globalism for yourself. And stay where you are. You have nothing to do with the Philippines anymore.

My ideals may seem almost too crazy, but if the Philippines can steer itself even halfway in the direction I want it to be,
its still a winning scenario for the Philippines.

p.s. Im not anti white, but I need my fair share of the pie.

4. There's a difference in finding humor in things that are serious and another in taking seriousness in something that is absurd...which is what you do. LOL.

I'm not belittling Filipino potential, if anything I'm representing and focusing on what Filipinos are doing right. What I'm belittling are stupid niches of our people...which is more or less people like you and your way of thinking...nothing short of childish and backwards! LOL.

There's nothing wrong in developing homegrown technology, but developing stupid infantile nonsensical $hit like trying to make an imperial Philippines instead of feeding the poor and correcting our political and economical woes (not with 'fascist republicanism' which makes no motherfu-king sense, given it came out of somebody's uneducated @$$hole but with REAL solutions that make REAL sense).

I'm not belittling Filipinos, but I'm using reverse psychology to weed out the dumb $hits in our society...mainly people like you. No sarcasm on that. LOL.

If pride consist of lunacy and idiocy, perhaps perhaps. But sometimes theres nothing more to be proud about than coherence. For real Filipinos who love their country, wherever we are, there's nothing more to be dreamed about than that.

No were not debating the semantics of fascist republic.

The point is there is an intellectual potential to be harnessed in all humanity, and there are many ways to achieve that. We can use a cautionary approach, no problem. But while we are at it, we might as well set the standards very high.

If this isn't about fascist republic (LOL! It's like talking about Barney or Puff the Magic Dragon) then why make a thread of it?

And what intellectual potential? If I made a serious thread about making a blackhole from a pile of dog $hit, and create a formula from my algebra 2 book and present it with much babble to simple minds, does that still count as intellectual approach?

there's giving debate on the potential of solutions and ambitions of our country, and yes setting high standards BUT there's a difference in presenting shenanigans pulled out from the imaginary world of those who just smoked a bunch of opium poppies who present silly unrealistic and, may i add, stupid ideas and calling for a dialogue on that.

Population increase? Are you smoking crack. The Philippines can't even make any inroads because of the damn Catholic Church, corrupt, traitorous Filipinos and all the US/western "we're a christian nation" sellout c@ck sucking.

We need to uplift the poor, expand education, spread the wealth, focus on environmental and other engineering/scientific research that helps enrich the lives of all Filipinos. Hawaii is what the Philippines should look like.

My Utopian Philippines would be one that embraces all religions, but is fully secular. A Philippines where people take personal responsibility for themselves; strong nationalism and brotherhood; A Philippines that mends both traditional and modern dogma; a country that resist foreign influence and negative western ideology; a country in which the preservation of the environment is a priority; a Philippines that heavily pursues scientific research and development and holds education, not consumerism in high regard; become a Green country utilizing solar, wind and various other sources of natural energy; a center of arts and creative expression and a Philippines with a strong desire to protect her borders from those who wish us harm. Oh and finally, invade Spain and declare it under the rule of Datu Lapu Lapu. I'd love to see the Spaniards fu-king faces with a military invasion of their former colony! Ha!

The one thing I can say about the Filipino, we are very smart and extremely creative. And I'll say that over other Asian nations because it's true. Other Asians are smart, but have no style, no flash. But our mayabang fu-king attitude is stupid. We need humility tempered with discipline. Filipinos lack those traits.

You know what, thinking about it the White Man really fu-ked the world. fu-k white people.

LOL i agree on all points except No.2 C'mon, whose going to trust the government with their money to build up industry etc. I don't want to be disparaging to civil servants but handing the trapos all economic power will just destroy the small gains already made. and if you point to China as a prime example of "central planning" being successful, China's growth depends on massive foreign investment from their evil capitalist enemy the USA and the accumulated money of overseas Chinese (which they effectively made in non-planned economies, yes this topic goes much further and is on the whole a testy one) Before you mistake me for some "the freemarket will solve everything" fool, i want to just step back and properly look what made e.g. Great Britain, Japan or the USA & SoKor for that matter into industrial powerhouses.

So the Fascist Republic & the Royal Republic are just placeholder for something, allright...

Die Philippinen-Frage

The Philippine Question by Karl Haushofer

The Philippine Question, formerly a spanish colonial issue, exists now as a american-east asian question since the Peace of Paris(10.12.1898, ratified by the American senate 6.8.1899) by which the territorial space and borders of the Philippines were lastly fixed according to international law. The group of islands is 296310 square kilometers large, about as large as Great Britain and Ireland put together, consists of 3141, according to others only of 1724 islands and reefs, of which ten are larger and 1095 are populated; the population varies between 6 and 12 Million, the density of settlement is distributed very unevenly, between 10 and 75 (people) per Square kilometer, on average 25. The Sulu-Islands were only incorporated in 1873. At the Time of the Peace of Paris the Philippines was, from 1896 to the 23.3.1901 (Aguinaldo's Capture), actually until the 4.7.1902(End of the Wartime-Organisation by Roosevelt) in the middle of a Struggle for Self-Determination, at first against Spain, then against the United States. Instead achieving this goal they were only transported from the related, but oppressive spanish cultural sphere into the neo-anglosaxon, more liberal civilization, but which is essentially different, and a control and sphere of Power more difficult to escape from. The politico-scientific border of the Philippines now runs west-east along 20 degree north latitude through the Kanal of Bachi from th 118 to 127 degree east longitude, soutwards to 4.degree point 25 north latitude, along this one to the intersection 119 degree point 55 eastern longitude, until 7 degree point 40; along this one till 116 degree eastern latitude, from there to the intersection of 10 degree northern latitude with 188 degree eastern longitude and back to the beginning.
For the Sciences of the Occident the Philippines were discovered on the 12.3.1521 by Magelhaens ( died 27.4.1521 Mactan on Cebu); Called by the Spanish the Islas de poniente, by the Portuguese Islas de oriente, they were at first a issue of conflict for both because of the famous line of demarcationof Pope Alexander VI. Only on the 1.1.1845 through the cancellation of a Tuesday after the 30.12 did the Philippines become part of the time zone of the Old World, thereby their calendarial integration to the Old World was achieved, and was no longer connected to the Latin American colonial empire – an important international law symptom of their hybrid position.

The white conquerors found a small, degenerating population of Negritos which had already been mostly displaced by the Malays, both peoples who like the Japanese, mostly lived from fish and plants, but especially from rice. This early indigenous economy only made 10 % of the whole area into cultivated lands; 50 % stayed rainforest, 40 % Savannah. Additionally to the Negritos and Malays there were Chinese and Japanese influences, which created the „Mixed Race“-Question affecting 5 % of the population. In 1543 Spaniards named the Island of Samar Filippina, founded San Miguel (Legaspi) on Cebu in 1565, formally took possession in 1569 and declared Manila to the Capital in 1571.

The subjugation and christianization was achieved by strong struggles, if not as cruel as in South America or the War of Chamorro Extermination on the Marianas, but the subjugation was never completely achieved. Spanish rule was never completely secure or acknowledged in the islands: e.g. the Igorot War lasted from 1660 until 1829. But Manila was the secure Spanish center of power; becoming eEglish only from 1762 until 1764, due to the changing events of the colonial War between France, Spain and England waged parallel to the Seven Years War. Except through the Annexation of the Sulu-Archipelago in 1873, the life-form of the Philippines in international relations was not essentially changed from the end of the 16th century until the 19th century. Aside from the wartime catastrophes, also the natural catastrophes, storms and tsunamis, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions made the population hold their breath.

Almost all fascist states are far right (although they say they are not). The only thing that are not "rightist" is in the context of extent of the state (modern definition of polarity) where 'leftist' states as defined by Communism are state centered.

The fascist instead use extreme nationalist ideology and use 'leftist' method of the state --totalitarianism--to achieve their goal.

That's why Ayn Rand believed that whether it be fascism or communism, there isn't much difference in the outcome except in paper (in ideology/dogma of the state).

The time of greater spanish rule until 1898 displays an unsuccessful struggle of intelligent statesmen, soldiers and clerics against the rigid pressures of the land-owning religious orders. The turning points are 1812, 1869 and 1872; the so-called „Katipunan-Uprising“ (Katipunan is the National flag of the free Philippines) of 1896 and the martyrdom of Dr. Jose Rizal mark the end of the possibility of peaceful conciliation and tranquil development: Once again ,the prophets of new ideas in international law could be shot, but the ideas could not be permanently crushed by spiritual rape.

In international & state law the unique position of canonical law in the Philippines remains almost until the the present time through the secular powers of the religious orders, caused by the past power structures of the church. Beside the Archbishop (installed 14.8.1595 by a bull of Clemens VIII) and his four Suffragans the landowning and power-hungry religious Orders emerged (Agostinos calazados since 1565, Manila, Guadalupe, Cebu; Franciscans 1577, Manila and S. Francisco del Monte; Dominicans 1587, Manila and S.Juan del Monte, Recollects or Francisc. sev. Obs. 1606, Manila, Cavite, Cebu) and 1852 lastly the restored Jesuits in Manila, Mindanao, Sulu, who vainly tried to mediate between the people and the Orders, who preserved the exclusion of Filipinos and their own landowning rights.
Besides this, both the St. Thomas University , at the moment the oldest under the Star-Spangled Banner, and the educational and scientific institutions of the Jesuits have had an great successful effect in culture-geographic terms.

The Civil War from 1869-1902, originally incited by the oppresiveness of the Orders, has after the year-long negotiations of America with the Holy See, abolished their position of power; but the following developments have shown that the cultural power and the political and legal importance of the Catholic church has not waned, but instead grown. Also the spanish culture has proven much stronger than spanish power, and is one of the levers used to increase the tenacious efforts to achieve Autonomy.

Blocking these efforts is the dependency on the superficially mild, but politically and economically incredibly superior American State-power, which guides the Islands for its own aims, which (Treaty of 1.5.1898) used as instruments Aguinaldo and his around 30000 men to crush the Spanish, but with a shameful instability from August 1898 until Februar 1899, did not keep the undoubted promises made to the Filipinos, and who after the 4.2.1899 with the Army of Occupation with 2000 Officers and 60000 executed their subjugation.

I don't know what's new about 'fascism'...Marcos already gave you a taste of 20 years of it. LOL. The only difference is that like Rand, he didn't call it that so I must mean it isn't it. LOL. The only difference is that Marcos have not as much reign of the economy as he wished and that he used nepotism than a solid party rule.

In the further development of the constitutional status of the Philippines under American Rule there were two different basic constitutional schools of thought in relation to the United States: an imperialist one(Otis and others), and one tending towards mutual international understanding, with the goal of peaceful conciliation, at least in the form of autonomy, with [an american] sovreignty and economic connections (Dean C. Worcester). Beside the martial law of the military administration already on the 29.5. 1899 civil courts of law were in session and a short time afterwards the municipal administration; on the 1.9.1900, through an ordinance of the President of the United States the legislative power and the power to install, to deploy and to dismiss civil servants was withdrawn from the military governor, and given to a commission of five americans who had knowledge of the country. These were Dean C. Worcester, who played an exemplary role, W.H. Taft, General L.E. Wright, H.E. Ide and Prof. Bernard Moses. Thus a great cultural effort was begun – with the construction of roads and harbors, the institution of 1000 american teachers, the creation of local and provincial fundamentals of autonomic administration – all of which, even with some unavoidable failures – were very successful – a success though, which was preconditioned by the great educational capability of the population. Without doubt, there is to be seen an emergence from a complete helpless, powerless amd lawless situation to the step-by-step achievement of Self-Determination – and this was accomplished opposing one of the strongest and most ruthless political organisms in the world – almost solely through the moral strength of unalienable natural right, through the artful use of the press, the tenacious pursuit of given promises, and national unity in against the wavering party-loyalties of the United States.

Already on the 1.7. 1902 a legislative assembled was promised, which would come into being after two years providing good conduct, of which the upper chamber would still consist of the five Americans and three elected Filipinos, while the lower chamber would already consist of elected owners of property who were able to speak english or spanish (realized on the 16.10.1907). The destruction of clerical estates over 2500 acres followed, as well as a political amnesty. The future path to Home Rule from the right of conquest, from 1902 until 1922, is now guided by the no longer to be eliminated american promise of „immediately when the islands are capable“ the lex lata was superseded by the lex ferenda, but still with the question of the correct point in time, and with step-by-step concessions. The more the colony is developed, the more it approaches the pursued goal, the american promise, but a goal which is only pursued in part: that of complete independence.

The more the colony is developed, the more it approaches the pursued goal, the american promise, but a goal which is only pursued in part: that of complete independence.

Already here and there national leaders (e.g. Don Manuel Quezon, Preseident of the Senate) are making veiled threats to receive a deadline of 6, 10 or 15 years maximum. The rising influence of educated Filipinos on the administration can not be denied, but has also recently received setbacks through questionable financial actions. The fast growth of the population to 12 million in the security of civilized institutions supports the tendencies in the United States to liberate the Philippines ( tendencies which are stronger in the Democratic than in the Republican Party) because one rightly fears, that through the growth of the Filipino population as american citizens, a third race question of the United States would be tragicly provoked. The Jones Bill for example, suported by the the democratic party promises increasing autonomy, but one would generally want to at least keep a naval base and permanent economic hegemony.

A commission of inquiry of Wood-Forbes, anticipated with great hopes, however had an ambivalent opinion on the maturity of the Philippines for self-administration. At least the chairman, Leonard Wood, an experienced man, was appointed as Governor. After the unstable tendencies in the beginning, the unimpassioned, almost scientific Geopolitics of the United Staes in the Philippine Question is typical for the new geopolitical methods in the Pacific, methods which are probably used for the first time. This is the current state of the constituion of the Philippines and the relations of the United Staates to her east asian „possession“. This is also a foundation of a new development in international relations with great repercussions in the future.

The Philippines have, as yet unacknowledged, a function in state's law and international relations of being a „measuring device“ for Pan-Asian pressures and national psychology, through her exposed location as a focus; being at the touching point of the Malayan Cultural sphere with the Chinese and Malaio-Mongolian-Japanese ones, being the most important bridge between the northern and southern East Asian territorial arches, as the only part of east asian cultures ruled by the racially distinct New World across the Ocean. Geopolitically, she is through geography, climate, race and settlement part of South East Asia, but in questions of power, global communications and economy she is forcefully oriented towards the anglosaxons; against the worldly power of the church, but still a good catholic, and culturally mostly related to spanish South America. That is why she has become the medium for the transnational, south-east Asian territorial organization of all essentially related tropical countries, at first in the field of legal studies, but she has also become an important supporter of East-Asian Unity and Pan-Asian ideals (Asia for the Asians). The "Asian Legal Protection Community" [must look it up, no fr*ckin idea if this still exists???] was first convened 1919 in Manila, 1920 in Tokyo and 1921 in Shanghai, has received its strongest input from the Philippines; the representatives of the Legal sciences of India, Thailand, Indonesia, China and Japan followed the lead of the Filipinos, who in the presence of American and Japanese officials now could hold speeches which had previously brought Rizal before the spanish, and Aguinaldo before american rifles.
