Real problem being the PH government that itself is plagued by corrupt officials and societal values still wonky mostly bcs of colonialism. Y'all don't want to hear it but the state of politics in the Africa and the PH could be a venn diagram and US will be in the intersection
ah yes, the most productive activism, horizontal hostility. maraming bobong bumoto kasi purposely na ginagawa bobo ang masa. constant socmed propaganda + depleting education quality + poverty and calamity = people are emotional + stupider + distracted therefore easily manipulated
Just taking away the focus from the real problems. Kahit sino namang manalo, pag palpak lagi ang comment "ay binoto nyo yan, magdusa kayo" kayo? hello, laha TAYO apektado, tangina naman bhe
