Kakampinks still fail to realize that, however the Marcos admin is turning out, their side still isn't good enough as an alternative (and will never be again). 🤭
The Philippines faces an existential threat.
No, not "Chinese expansionism in the South CHINA Sea," but the fact the Philippines is LITERALLY OCCUPIED by US troops who are forcing the country to divert national resources from development to proxy war - into turning the Philippines into the "Ukraine" of Southeast Asia against China, the Philippines' largest trading partner.
If the people of the Philippines do not reverse US occupation and oust the US client regime in power now - they will suffer a fate at least as bad as Ukraine.
They are already suffering decades-spanning poverty because of their status as a proxy serving US interests at the expense of the Philippines' actual interests.

This is one the Philippines' Independence Day - guess who they gained independence from?
The US - they were literally an outright colony of the US - when they first fought for independence against US occupation and control, the US instituted concentration camps and systematic torture - this according to the US State Department's OWN account:
"The war was brutal on both sides. U.S. forces at times burned villages, implemented civilian reconcentration policies, and employed torture on suspected guerrillas..."

@DD_Geopolitics What people miss is that it doesn’t matter if the US is still a net importer; the point is control, and artificial scarcity that will be used as a political weapon.
If your regime sucks up to America, you “might” be given one more drop. You want independence, you get nothing.
@Glenn_Diesen Glenn, the EU warmongers won’t be satisfied even if the Ukrainian population is ZERO. The only question is, after Ukrainians are extinct, who’s next?
@AustroLibertari I wouldn't be surprised if news on casualties is being suppressed. The powers-that-be have figured out that once the public knows the real score they can't control the masses anymore.
Filipinos reflexively know that once they take their eyes off a fellow Pinoy who needs to be held accountable, he/she/it will do his best to avoid it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
