Poor Filipinos are so used to bad leadership that, a few years after the fact, there is only a vague recollection of the trespasses committed by a particularly bad leadership. Take the case of Mr. Aquino. The extremism of Mr. Duterte has the effect of dulling the brain, addled by a lack of nutrients in the first place, of the many trespasses committed by Mr. Aquino under his six years of unfettered and unapologetic Social Darwinism.
