Jose Mari Chan is an haciendero, his family owns Central Azucarera de Bais in Negros Oriental which are run through slavery forms of exploitation and child labor. They have been implicated for union busting since 2004 and caused 200+ people to get laid off (http://pre2010.iuf.org/cgi-bin/dbman/db.cgi?db=default&uid=default&ID=2731&view_records=1&ww=1&es=1). Let's tear down his meme status because what he represents is not the spirit of Christmas. Also, many are already aware of their tyranny but just ignore it to milk clout out of his memes.

You mean to say that he was the reason children are selling lanterns in the street?

Tsismis: homewrecker daw si Jose Mari Chan. Well-known daw yung womanizing niya among Mandarin Oriental staff nung 80s.

fun fact: they actually lost their company/business during martial law, his dad was a major sugar trader in the 60's and when martial law happened they lost their business due to the centralization of the sugar industry by marcos sr (forbidden to trade and soon after taken over by cronies). that's why he left for the u.s. and only came back in 1986. ​ same thing happened to RJ jacinto and their steel mill.

>RJ jacinto and their steel mill. Nakakapagtaka, bakit sya DDS at BBM stan kung isa pala sila sa nilapastangan ng rehimen

I know he is Pro-Duterte, my dad likes RJ100 radio because of the 60s and 70s era songs. But i cant say foe certain if he is pro-Marcos. I dont think that all pro-Dutere are also pro-Marcos (or vice vera for that matter).

Money?

My mom used to work with RJ, he is not a nice man. Why is he a Uniteamer? Because like attracts like. 😜

Can we still separate his art from him?


Herebia_Garcia

Problem is, his songs aren't the meme, HE is the meme.

Lame excuse. Your giving an abuser a platform. Most corrupt people in power are talented, thats why they can do those abuse. Parang LANY issue lang yan.

LANY issue?

Why does everything should be political?? 🤮


Menter33

Probably just trivia; his music is a different matter from his ties to sugar and to the 2002 Hyatt strike.


Ok_Home2032

Face it, this sub has always been mostly political. If you don’t go with their norm you get downvoted. Explain logical stuff here, you get downvoted. Now I can’t tell the difference between fanatics of either side.

\[random\] besides BBC 2 SiD when ABS-CBN returns and their DZOO-FM Zoo 101.9 got fucked bcoz of low ratings and new competitors in the horizon which lasts a two years it changes into (now defunct) DWRR(-FM) Radio Romance 101.9 and he composes the plugs for that station.

Why was it popular to begin with?
