#BongbongMarcos was just elected president in the Philippines.
As @lgreen66 illustrates in her 2019 documentary #TheKingmaker, many fear history will repeat itself with the Marcos family back in power. A thread. 🧵
UPDATED. The sale has led National Intelligence Coodinating Agency (NICA) Director General Alex Paul Monteagudo to red-tag Adarna House, accusing the publishing company of “radicalizing” children against the government. #NeverAgain

You know what irks me about a Marcos win? It tells me that no matter how hard you work, how good you try to be, how noble your causes are, a rich spoiled brat can get still his way.
I look at the work I have to do in my poor old ordinary life and none of it seem to matter.
'I am not going to have my president be named Ferdinand Marcos again.'

dragged others down with you. I don't even care anymore if we used to be friends, being an enabler of a criminal is enough for me to cut you off right now.
If BBM actually wins and the Philippines sinks deeper into debt, I won't even blame or be angry. I'll silently just cut off all the supporters that actually believed he would do good. You were warned, you were told to do proper research. You wanted this to happen, and you (1/2)
VP bet Sen Kiko Pangilinan issues statement: Nakikiisa tayo sa pahayag ni Vice President Leni. Hindi pa tapos ang bilangan. Sa ilang mga presinto, hindi pa tapos ang botohan. May mga tanong tungkol sa proseso na hindi pa nasasagot. Hindi pa tapos ang ating gawain. | @maracepeda
If Marcos Jr. wins, it means his disinformation has won and our collective history is erased. It also means the erasure of the martyrs whose blood and lives were sacrificed for the country’s freedom.
Surely, we are better than this.
Kapit lang.
Malalim pa ang gabi.
Excuse me lang ah...
🚩COMELEC commissioners are Duterte appointees.
🚩F2 Logistics is linked with Duterte associate Dennis Uy.
🚩Energy Sec. Alfonso Cusi-led PDP-Laban faction endorsed Marcos Jr.
🚩Imee Marcos is Chair of Senate Committee on Electoral Reforms.
Skl. 🙃
Many of us will not be affected by the results of today's elections. Privilege will insulate us from the effects. The rich can easily leave the country. But the poor and the marginalized will be robbed of chances at a better life. They have no option but to stay and suffer.
Hello, guys, PLEASE NOTE that the Comelec results are based on ELECTION RETURNS, NOT BALLOTS COUNTED. If you add up the actual votes of ALL the presidential candidates, they amount to only a little over a third of the total number of registered voters. So malayo po.
