The Running Man (2025)

In a grim vision of the near future, the United States has ceased to function as a true democracy. Instead, the country is effectively ruled by the Network, a sprawling media conglomerate that has transformed itself into the nation's most powerful political and economic force. Every aspect of society is shaped by its broadcasts, propaganda, and entertainment. While the wealthy enjoy lives of comfort behind secure walls, the overwhelming majority of Americans struggle in poverty. Access to healthcare, education, and basic necessities has become a luxury that most citizens cannot afford. To distract the desperate population from their suffering and prevent widespread rebellion, the Network floods the airwaves with sensationalized reality television and brutally violent game shows, convincing viewers that spectacle is more important than truth.

A Warning on Religious Labels in Philippine Journalism

Why does religion become part of a crime story when the suspect is a Muslim, but stay irrelevant when he is not? This is not a demand that Muslims be spared scrutiny — it is a demand for one standard of journalism: fair, consistent, and free of religious bias.

This vision is like a caterpillar transforming into a butterfly; it represents a profound change in how we perceive ourselves and our place in the universe.

When I was a teenager, I learned about a set of ideas that helped people live better lives. This group is called Initiatives of Change, formerly called Moral Rearmament Movement (MRA) founded by Frank Buchman, and it teaches something special called the “Four Absolutes.” The four ideas are absolute honesty, absolute love, absolute unselfishness, and absolute purity. Even though they sound like big words, they are really simple ways to choose kindness and do what is right.
