On this 11th day of October 12 years ago, let us remember the murder of Jennifer Laude, a Filipina trans woman, whose life was tragically taken at the hands of Joseph Scott Pemberton, a US Marine who was pardoned by President Rodrigo Duterte in 2020.
Liberals are not leftists.
Liberals are right-lite with moral superiority complexes.
They maintain the status quo while telling leftists they’re fucking stupid for demanding action over performance.
Liberals are dangerous.
“Palestine is dividing the left!”
No, it’s defining the Left. You’re not owning up to the fact that genocide wasn't a red line for you. Genocide is the red line for anyone with a moral and ethical compass.
For three years I've seen dead children, limbs torn off, chunks of their brain on the ground, and some even being carried in garbage bags. Do you all know how much of an asshole you have to be para sabihin na "sana Pilipinas muna?"
Mga putangina niyong walang puso.
Serious cause for alarm. In the US, the AIPAC lobby has practically used the government to advance genocidal interests. In the Philippines, local govts are wooed for the same agenda. And we have the US-Israel backed Pax Silica.
If you’re a leftist you want to abolish capitalism. To abolish capitalism you have to stop imperialism. The Zionist project of Israel is a key tool of US imperialism. Which is why the Palestinian struggle is such an important issue of our time.
liberals cannot grasp the concept of having convictions. their entire worldview revolves around what is the least challenging option, what requires the least effort, whatever will not interrupt their comfort or their station.
natdems has made major compromises over the past decade to support the likes of robredo and de lima, while simultaneously receiving inhumane amounts of red-tagging from so-called progressive liberal “allies.” but the moment we make one thing non-negotiable, kami pa ang shitty?
Here's my take:
Our public officials must be held to the highest standard of scrutiny when it comes to Israel.
The genocide is beyond a diplomatic issue. It's a humanitarian issue. Feigning innocence to the atrocities Israel is committing against Palestinians is inexcusable.
i think another thing is that the zionist israeli ambassador 10000% arranged to meet with leni robredo because israel KNOWS that leni has liberal/progressive legitimacy, and are trying to gain legitimacy by proxy and diverting attention from their genocidal campaign in gaza.
Linawin lang natin: Ang pagbatikos ay hindi pag-cancel.
Obviously, mas mainam na alternatibo si Leni kesa kay Sara o kung sino man ang kandidato ng DDS.
Kaya nga umaalma yung mga tao eh. Kasi nakasandig at umaasa sa prinsipyo niya. Hindi yan cancel culture. Accountability 'yan.
bobo amputa eh konektado ang pinaglalaban ng mga palestinian sa pinaglalaban nating mga pinoy dahil parehas tayong pinagsasamantalahan ng estados unidos
21k likes. yung impeachment proceeding never nagkaroon ng ganito kalaking traction dito sa app.
goodluck sa 2028. laban muna para sa palestine bago para sa pinas i guess.
heavy geopolitical topic daw as if may moral ambiguity yung issue, kahit i-drop mo pa ang Palestinian genocide sa discussion, teh, and just look at the harassment Filipinos have been enduring from Israelis in OUR land—di ka ba madi-disappoint?
A lot of other countries have refused to meet with Israeli officials. Others expelled Israel ambassadors from their countries. May arms embargo pa vs Israel ang Spain.
Nawasak ba ang ekonomiya at diplomasiya nila?
There is no purism in rejecting Israel. No business as usual.
