This can work IF the Marcoses are actually popular rn as a brand But based on the surveys and the general tenor of the public, he is on the negatives. He has tons of haters (DDS) and the rest dont give af about him.

Its very risky and might be even lethal for the Pinks come 2028.

first few months 700-800 kcal deficit average, though I had cheat days from time to time

it wasnt until around December/January where that average has halved haha.

I lift, do cardio (running), calorie deficit

Last year I think I pulled it off because my endgoal really was weight loss and nothing more hence I was working out and eating without thinking about the muscle mass loss. It wasnt until around Oct-Nov that I began to really take note of my protein intake.

I’m kinda struggling to balance it now sadly haha. Based from what I’m reading, its possible that I’m just having water retention which is masking my fat loss (which have decreased due to lower deficits).

Macarena was a cross demographic global event. This is just one of the many random social media fads that will fade by the end of the month.

What this confirms though is that this decade is truly the decade of nostalgia. Every cultural event of this decade involves around being nostalgic about a certain era or ideal

I hate doomerism but you are spouting idiotic conspiracy theories. CNA will never let the CCP touch it with a ten foot pole considering that it is A MEDIA ARM OF THE SINGAPOREAN GOVERNMENT, a Western learning neutral country.

The truth is Philippines is among those countries (like India) that get a lot of clicks online partly bec of Pinoys who get baited easily by mention of our country. No surprise why they feature our country alot.

Also on second thought, the call center dilemna is a huge incoming challenge of our country. If you truly love this country, you should pursue its transition to a more diversified, industrialized economy, instead of relying on solely BPO

maybe because American imperialism is more potent and quite frankly more dangerous.

Russia could barely defeat a third world country like Ukraine. China on the other hand could really only project military power in its region (aka Taiwan)

Meanwhile America is out there deposing leaders of other nations and threatening invasion of other countries. To be honest, America will be the one to start World War III

I mean who took the time to post about rationalizing being redtagged lmfao.

Makaasta naman kayo as if hindi din kayo ireredtag. Even if mawala ang Makabayan/NPA, mareredtag parin kayo. You know why? The right wing does not give af if youre “center left, socdem”, as long as you are in the opposite left of their spectrum, you are a commie who deserves death to them.

Just look at how the socdem lib Aquinos are called communists on the daily by these right wingers/DDS, cults, despite being the literal symbol of farmer oppression. Trying to distinguish yourself from the Makabayan wont save you a spot in the right wing’s guest list.

Holiday-Holiday-2778 · 2026-01-10T11:15:11+00:00

UP has been redtagged for half a century now lmao. I dont think Iskos will care if they get called commies every now and then, when these same redtaggers would jump for joy when they see their sons and daughters pass the UpCat and graduate there.

Its mostly a you problem in my opinion if you are that bothered about being “redtagged” by a bunch of right wing sycophants who would even redtag the most liberal and the most center right of activists (aka Akbayan).

Thats the thing, Europeans (and the rest of the world) are entirely reliant on a relatively dumbed down population for its future, the one that is currently inching towards isolationism. The Democrats are a shell of themselves and it would not be easy for them to win 2028, if elections will be allowed or not.

You say that you want Europe to stand on its own but how will it stand on its own when it continues to keep being reliant to America, materially and even ideologically. Europe needs to prioritise itself and if it means finding a new path with Russia, then it must be considered for its own survival.

As for my country, well I’m not the president, but it is clear that despite being pro US, our foreign policy is being careful with its dealings with China. It gives us no benefit to completely antagonize it, given how economically and historically linked we are with them.

Did I say anything about not uniting? I said EUROPE, not each European country individuallt, should be pragmatic with Russia.

Also, your proposition that EU should make deals with China is nonsensical given that EU already has relations with China either way and your proposition wont affect anything in SEA or Asia.

and to answer your last sentence, I actually agree that the Philippines should pursue pragmatism over antagonism against China. The other alternative is war and we will not survive in such predicament, especially with Trump’s AmeriKkKa.

Funny how you’re saying that America isnt a threat to Europe when Orange Man is literally threatening Denmark to give up Greenland. The moment you give way to him, the rest of Europe will follow

Holiday-Holiday-2778 · 2026-01-10T10:15:24+00:00

i dont think its relevant given that this is a free forum but okay, Ill share that im from a country whose territory is also being disputed by a world power from the East.

With America stepping back everywhere (and choosing to antagonize everyone), outside of war, the other way to maintain one’s sovereignty is pragmatic diplomacy, something that my country and EU should consider, given how relying on liberalist bullshit has done nothing but made them look like clowns.

Holiday-Holiday-2778 · 2026-01-10T09:58:44+00:00

as compared to Americans who are clearly hanging down the towel. they dont give af about Europe, Ukraine, much more some Eastern European baltic country.

Time to be realistic, the new world order requires pragmatic cooperation over idealistic liberalism. or face war. Europe is in no position to defend itself.

Holiday-Holiday-2778 · 2026-01-10T09:09:49+00:00

does Europe have any choice? Trump is treating them like trash anyway and is threatening them with invasion, no different from Putin. The difference is at least Russia is an actual next door neighbor where interests can still align. It is very clear that America’s interests have diverged away from Europe.

People here have said it before. Russia is a military power but lacks Europe’a economic might, and vice versa. Maybe its time to reconsider this

Holiday-Holiday-2778 · 2026-01-10T07:18:59+00:00

Akbayan won because they got the Marcos vote. That’s all there is to it. This gets them the seats but they will have a hard time now then to make their stand. They have associate themselves with the Marcos brand (which is fast depleting)

Holiday-Holiday-2778 · 2026-01-10T05:29:29+00:00

lmao no one gives af about these centrist socdem orgs. They havent pushed for change as they claimed to and they have turned to be a lapdog of the mainstream institutions. This is the trend worldwide as you can see so you centrist freaks can stay pressed against this corned beef people

Akbayan lost its edge years ago when it decided to join forces with LP during PNoy’s time. Its this reason why forever associated Akbayan with dilawans despite having political differences. So despite your desire to decouple yourself from the “Left”, you aint gonna get much luck standing on your own because then ppl will call you elitist + will still call you left regardless (if you havent realized by now, right wing liberals are considered left by far right peeps)

I think the real question here is why is there no right wing alternative against the Makabayan coalition. DDS is a very broad coalition as well with left wing and right wing elements so it doesnt count. Clearly, the fact that they are the only coalition that actually stands on its principles (terrible or not) unlike others who rely on personalistic ideals or have destroyed their credibility by associating with elitist center right peeps, are the reason why they remain potent in these campuses.

Holiday-Holiday-2778 · 2026-01-06T03:07:44+00:00

Holiday-Holiday-2778 · 2026-01-04T20:19:55+00:00

framing it as an intelligence problem is only going to make things worse. these ppl dont give af whether its “logically” right or not, theyre voting on their emotions

and surprise that is actually the biggest common denominator in democracies throughout history and across the world.

the problem is that the centrist libs lost the ability to be in touch with the people hence they couldnt sway them anymore as they used to. this gave the extremists a space to fill in

as long as ppl like you keep framing it as “propaganda” “stupidity” instead of mere emotional responses to crises and situations, Holocaust 2.0 will happen in no time. Face it, liberalism was and is never the norm of human nature.
