There is unlikely to be any middle ground - either love him or despise him:
Slamming the Catholic Church as "the most hypocritical institution" for casting doubt on his extrajudicial drug war, the outspoken leader ridiculed Catholic bishops as "useless fools," exhorting his people to "kill them" in a speech on Wednesday. He also claimed that 90 per cent of priests are homosexuals lacking any standing to "postulate on my morality." Philippine President Duterte
‘Kill them’: Duterte loses patience with ‘useless fools’ at Catholic Church [rt.com]
my ideal world would have useless fools & autocratic bullies all kill each other - what a wonderful world it would be!
Blood thirsty!
@FrayedBear, they may poison each other - if they wish so.
populist using a controversial opinion to promote itself.
But seriously, any institution with the amount of sexual scandals as the Catholic church would be forced to close down if it was not a big religion.
The same applies with most politicians and corruption. LMAO
Duterte is a loose cannot, although the poor people love him, he has given them hope. He is cleaning up the drug scene. A bit crazy but people love him there.
Wait until you find out how many billions he has stashed in Panama!?
@FrayedBear And you know this, how? One thing that is for sure with Duterte is that he is not interested in becoming rich, neither does he care what others think, he is completely anti religion and is not afraid of the Catholic church, which by the way is very powerful in the Philippines. He is like a small despot doing what he think is right in a very foul and disharmonious way. Crude is what he is.
@Jolanta I don't know. I simply ask a question based on past histories in the area and the very powerful old proven adage that "Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely".
I recall there being accusations regarding his children or their partners.
@FrayedBear yes his son wasn’t into something but he said that if he is guilty then he should blame prosecuted. He is estranged from his son.
This is another lunatic! How to get rid of him? This is a puzzle to me?
Educate the people particularly his voters?
@irascible he hasn't got the mustache or the haircut. Even Adolf wasn't as brazen as this guy.
@irascible I doubt that Duterte has the ability or nouse to be able to hypnotise as many people into misbehaving as Adolf did.
@FrayedBear it appears the people are more fearful of him, than approving? He is brazen in his cruelty, that is no secret!
@Freedompath It is a land where life is cheap.
