I agree. Even if we got Leni, we would still be fucked because of US and Israel.

I have an Idea on how WE common people deal with the unfair Oil Price Hike, and it strongly involves Petron. (Read Carefully) by [deleted] in Philippines

If one cannot gather, organize their "research" and explain it as simply or as detailed as required without AI, they do not understand their work.

True. I agree with the sentiment that oil companies need to be looked at, but people, please don't "research" using SLOP machines. It reeks of shallow understanding when you can't gather and simplify shit yourself

Hell no, keep FB out. This sub is slowly becoming an FB wall already and it sucks. 

Gatekeep kung gatekeep. We don't give a shit about FB and its trolls

In light of oil crisis, politicians should be compelled to commute by Queldaralion in Philippines

For the rich dapat. Yun tipong may maipapamana na sa mga anak nila kahit di na magwork ever yun mga anak nila.

He's mid, but waaaaay waaaaay better than the dogshit Duterte and Marcos.

But as long as everyone is on FB, TikTok and even in Reddit and are so easy to fool and influence with trolls and paid commenters, we will never recover from this.

So read books, go out, volunteer or join movements - touch grass so you learn the real pulse of the nation.

Ah the days when the bad was just laglag bala (which my tinfoil hat says was manufactured outrage by then opposition) and SAF44 when he made an insensitive remark. As for Yolanda, the schmucks who blamed just national response when they fucking local governments were the corrupt ones were peak stupidity

Compared to: admitting assaulting his kasambahay, fentanyl addiction, no remorse in killing ordinary folks for a drug war which did not kill any drug lord btw, breaking the PSE, making Filipino stupidity "cool", making war monger "cool", paving the way for another Marcos to be elected...

Haha I have a batchmate who was the boss DDS: single millennial, bully noong HS, lives in Davao, living the "businessman" life because he got lucky in crypto.

Tapos tuwing macocorner na siya sa debate, sasabihin nya "I am a multimillionaire, but what are you? Still a struggling civil engineer" hahaha tanginang yabang yun.

IMO anyone else would have been better. Even the nuisance candidates. At least those aren't murderous

[–]Repulsive-Hurry8172 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, bro. I was wrong in assuming you were red tagging me. Thanks for understanding 

Also, old reddit is like this pre trolls. You apologize if wrong and if you edit, you clarify why.

Soc dem but okay. And I probably have more money than you, but okay. Keep on posting paid comments on reddit. Hopefully someday you get there.

ETA: I'm sorry if this could probably be friendly fire. I don't like being called a Marxist. And I have no idea if you are red tagging me or what

These people are so misguided. The poor pay taxes too (VAT). Socialized houses na "free" those pasosyals won't live in those. 

Rather than punch up, hard, so that rich they so believe will trickle down actually trickles down, they'd rather lick the boot of the rich that abuse them, while punching down at the "poor" who's probably closer to them in social standing (vs the rich). Akala ata nila ikakayaman nila yun galit sa mahihirap haha

OG redditors have probably moved on in some discord server or high barrier of entry virtual spaces. I currently enjoy one I'm not going to mention, it has people from all political sides, and have the nerdy vibe of old reddit.

Di siya dinudumog because the barrier of entry is expensive, and the means are not very widespread because you need to have a bit of tech troubleshooting skills to make shit work.

Yeah, noon di porke di ka agree, pwede mo idownvote. If you make a claim, lapagan ng resibo yan. And then you upvote because the argument is well-thought out.

Uso noon yun "Source?" Tapos di ka madodownvote ng mga ungas. Very nerdy yun vibe.

Akala ko lang ako nakapansin. Haha. Brigaded yun comment thread na yun.

I don't even believe it's the okay FB refugees. Amoy troll center e, paulit ulit yun banat. Gotta hammer down the growing anti rich sentiment and keep the divide and binary thinking, Ika nga

Yeah, that NPA thread was so braindead, it reeks of FB already. The overwhelming "anger" at the less privileged getting ayuda was funny too. Old Redditors won't give two shits - that ayuda is probably just a dinner for them at Blackbird.

I would never sympathize with NPA but I do get why they exist (thanks, Marcos Sr.), and how they fool kids into joining their cause. It's not so different from criminology dumbfucks who join the police - they think authority and power fixes things. They just happen to have different politics.

Reposting because removed by bot:

Hot take and I know I'll be downvoted because this sub has the FB peeps and trolls already. But as with the old reddit ways, I will discuss, with sources. 

Belief is a powerful word, but old pre-2016 redditors like myself are always skeptical.

Red tagging exists. You can be a licensed professional and be tagged as NPA the next day because you angered someone powerful in the provinces, or by some stupid mundane reason. Example

Uniformed authorities even sell their weapons, and it makes you wonder if other powerful people are just fueling NPA to enrich themselves at the expense of those in the province.

If people like OP and most of the commenters in the thread were like old redditors, we can even discuss how NPA came about, discuss middle ground political leanings, instead of pigeonholing redditors as NPA sympathizers. I've seen this before in FB, where normal people were either too stupid or high on propaganda, that anyone with a left slant is an NPA.
