In 1994 Jessica Zafra proposed a plan for Pinoy world domination leveraging the world-wide network of domestic helpers. Here are some excerpts:
- We’re practically defenseless, and if the leaders of some superior power should get it into their heads to invade us, the only way we might repel their forces is to douse them in buckets of boiling drool from the frothing mouths of our politicians. This way if infection doesn’t kill them, rabies will.
- I propose that we establish stronger communications with the Pinay maids out there. I propose that we give them consciousness-building seminars that will make them more aware of their unique powers. Then I propose that at a given signal, the Pinay maids all over the world stage a sit-down strike.
- Our plan will work because it is human nature to despise housework, and the farther one rises in the world, the less inclined she or he will be to do household chores. In fact, the degree of social, political, and financial influence a person wields in inversely proportional to her or his willingness to do housework. The less inclined one is to cook, clean, and wash, the more likely one is to hire a domestic helper.
(Personally, I think the now-defunct Ilsean Armageddon’s 4-year old plans for world domination are more creative. Pulling the moon, high jacking Babilos and prey-it-forward are interesting ideas.)
[...] think this ties in nicely with yesterday’s Jessica Zafra’s plan for world domination. This strangely reminds me of Rex Navarette’s hilarious Maritess and the Superfriends [...]
