Minos kyg political maneuvering nis risa uy murag wa gyuy chance mudaog pagka presidente ni 😭
Gi dungagan pa gyud niya atong video games nga issue. Down the drain tanan.
I'm just gonna say it.
Okay lang if may ma-offend sa team nya, but I honestly think they fumbled this one.
Parang hindi naipakita kay Sen. Risa kung gaano kalawak ang reach ng WinRi across different generations. She kept referring to us as "mga bata," when in reality, ang daming moms, professionals, at even older supporters sa Facebook ang openly defending her ngayon because kinilig sila sa WinRi.
I think they could have prepared her better. Kahit simpleng heads-up lang about who the fandom actually is, or even asking Karen beforehand to steer clear of WinRi questions if they didn't want to entertain them. Sometimes preserving the mystery is the smarter PR move.
What disappoints me the most is that it feels like she thinks the "Winners" are just a bunch of giggly fifteen-year-olds.
We're not.
A lot of us are working professionals. We have careers, families, mortgages, bills, and taxes to pay. We just happen to enjoy this little corner of the internet because it's a fun escape from everything else.
For context, I've been watching Senate sessions since the Erap impeachment. Marami sa amin ang matagal nang politically aware. We didn't start paying attention because of a ship, we stayed because we genuinely care about public service, and WinRi just happened to make that space feel a little lighter.
That's why this whole thing feels so disappointing.
She doesn't owe us anything. We all know that. Pero ang hirap na yung efforts of the fandom is being reduced to this.
