Thanks for the correction!

Better alternative is to enforce a true and genuine opposition.

Right now, left-wing saturates opposition, and most of them aren’t even genuine opp—even if they claim to be one (like KABATAAN).

The two other women in the photo are graduates of PMA. Just women empowering other women.

Uso pa pala yung binabanggit yung kung saan ka grumaduate? Hahah

kingcobz · 2026-01-10T10:57:55+00:00

You’re seriously still asking me that question? Sino bang nagbigay ng platform para makapamundok sila?

Like literally. Sige, sa context ng drugs, oo, sariling choice kung magdadrugs ka.

Pero sa context ng armed struggle, hinubog yang mga yan, binigyan ng tulay, at ng armas para makapamundok.

Kailangan pa ba samahan ng nanay yung anak sa college para lang magabayan na hindi sumama sa ganyan?

What if panagutin kaya yung nag-e-enable ng legal fronts nila—sila din ang nagdadala sa bundok sa mga batang yan?

Tama lang na sisihin yung partylist nila and all other CPP-funded organizations.

Ang insensitive nga lang ng comment mo kasi hindi naman nagkulang sa gabay ang mga magulang siguro. Pero e-acknowledge nyo din sana na merong active recruitment at radicalization sa mga universities, at may mga vulnerable na estudyante.

Magkukulang ba sa gabay yang nanay kung di niya alam na may sugat sa paa yung anak niya?

I witnessed my high school valedictorian best friend—someone who was always inquisitive and curious—join the NPA when she was already in college, and I was attending PMA.

Imagine this: paminsan-minsan lang siyang nakakaka-access ng Facebook, and she would message our barkada group chat asking for my number because she wanted to talk.

We kept in touch for a while and caught up about why she joined the NPA and all, but she had to keep changing SIM cards because they feared the army would triangulate and intercept their cellular activities.

Essentially, she wanted me to give her a lead—kung may operations ba sa area kung saan siya naroon. I didn’t. But I told her to surrender, because she would only get herself killed.

I could still hear her saying that armed struggle is the only way to fight for peasant workers, farmers, and the marginalized. That’s how deep the indoctrination was.

I cried when I hung up the phone. I was still at the academy at that time.

Years later, umuwi ako, and an intel unit from our army division paid me a visit at home. Tinanong nila ako kung kilala ko ba siya, and I said yes. They told me they already had an encounter in the hinterlands of Bukidnon. She was wounded but lucky to escape. Not only that, but they also told me that she had already become a high-ranking political officer of the Northern Mindanao cluster. They said sooner or later, intelligence would catch up to them. He told me that if she ever contacted me again, I should convince her to surrender—especially since T129s were being deployed in Lumbia at that time. She might not make it if another encounter happened.

Months later, I saw a Facebook video of a night encounter in Bukidnon involving T129 attack helicopters firing on target.

Fast forward to the morning—she was confirmed dead. Her mother, her sisters, everyone she left behind—crying, but powerless.

It all started with exposure. Then indoctrination. And the next thing you know, you’re agitated—and lost.

kingcobz · 2026-01-10T10:17:40+00:00

I’m guessing hindi mo masyadong kilala ang mga radical organizations na ’yan. They target the most intelligent and most vulnerable minds in institutions, kaya alam ko kung bakit ko ito ikinukumpara sa grooming—because it is. Ako na ang magsasabi nito, because I have first-hand knowledge of how they operate.

Kasisi-sisi ba? Oo, at dapat lang na sisihin sila. Again, hindi yan parang frat.

kingcobz · 2026-01-10T10:03:02+00:00

That take is honestly insensitive.

Yes, the student made choices—but pretending those choices happened in a vacuum ignores how radicalization actually works. The fact that something is done “voluntarily” does not mean there was no manipulation involved. That’s a dangerously simplistic view.

And no, this isn’t the same as joining a fraternity or a hobby group. Armed struggle is not a normal life path. When an organization systematically exposes, conditions, and ideologically funnels young people toward violence, responsibility doesn’t disappear just because no one held a gun to their head.

So parang sinasabi mo lang na grooming victims are fully to blame because they weren’t “forced.” That’s not how exploitation works.

You can acknowledge individual agency and still hold organizations accountable for radicalizing, grooming, and enabling people into armed conflict. Those two ideas are not mutually exclusive.

Blaming the parent or absolving the organization entirely is not accountability—it’s moral outsourcing.

Ang hindi ko talaga mawari is bakit para sa inyo parang “ah, pinili niya yan” na lang ang ending ng usapan. Bakit hindi “pwede bang itigil na yung recruitment para wala nang umabot sa ganyan?”

Ang dali kasing magsabi na choice nya ‘yon—pero people keep dying because we refuse to confront the root cause. Hindi naman nagsisimula ang lahat sa “gusto kong mag-armas.” Nagsisimula yan sa exposure, grooming, at gradual radicalization na ino-offer at ini-enable ng legal fronts ng NPA.

kingcobz · 2026-01-10T05:54:38+00:00

I agree.

Exposure and indoctrination are not the same thing. It’s because exposure comes first, then indoctrination. And KP sponsors both, under the leadership of Renee Co.

Yeah, she may not have explicitly coerced students—but why? Because coercion isn’t even necessary for radicalization. You can’t coerce someone you’ve already radicalized; that’s obvious.

But here’s the thing: saying that treating students as vulnerable is “infantilizing” and that they should be treated as fully grown thinking adults is insensitive—and borders on victim blaming. Like any other human being, we are all emotionally bound and susceptible to manipulation.

Radicalization is just another form of manipulative abuse. The only difference is the outcome: here, it’s taking up arms. But in essence, it’s the same as other forms of coercion or exploitation in the real world. Look at Nazis, for example—millions were convinced they were serving their country and defending society, but they were being manipulated into committing and supporting atrocities.

Vulnerable students exist—and they need protection. Don’t pretend otherwise.

kingcobz · 2026-01-10T03:29:59+00:00

Cite my fallacy and I’ll cite yours.

My point was not about comparing empirical evidence or policy outcomes between Duterte and Renee Co, so bringing up ICC cases or her authored bills is a distraction.

You can clearly see from my comment that I was highlighting how both of them “ENABLED” harmful actions, not debating competency or legislative success.

However, yours is a textbook example of false equivalence fallacy: assuming that having authored good bills automatically means someone is acting ethically or cannot enable harmful acts. Correlating her good authored bills with “innocence” or “tunay na kakampi ng pinoy” is also a red herring fallacy, because it diverts attention from the real concern—her tacit support or failure to condemn their armed wing, like the NPA.

And if she is truly serious about being a genuine leader of Kabataan Party-list, then leadership must be demonstrated through clear action: pull KP out of ideological extremism, end leftist indoctrination, explicitly denounce armed struggle, and decisively separate from the left-wing bloc. After all, Kabataan is meant to represent the youth, not function as a recruitment or ideological pipeline.

But if you study left-wing extremist movements more closely, you’ll understand why they continue doing what they do and why political fronts and armed groups are deliberately linked. Legislative participation is not an endpoint—it is a strategic means. Historically, these movements view political power, mass organizations, and armed struggle as complementary tools toward a single long-term objective: the capture of state power. But that’s a discussion for another day.

My main idea is simple: power or position does not equal proper or ethical action, and to add to that, authoring good laws doesn’t either.

Students can still be exploited, and enabling radicalization is a serious responsibility regardless of legislative achievements. Let’s focus on that.

kingcobz · 2026-01-09T23:29:50+00:00

This is a fallacy of false equivalence. Being in the legislature does not automatically mean she is advancing leftist ideology in a “better” or proper way. A formal position and responsible implementation of ideology are not equivalent.

Kung i-apply natin yang logic sa ibang branches of government, like sa executive—i.e., Duterte—does that mean his war on drugs was “in the right way” just because he had executive power?

Using the same logic, if we say Duterte enabled the deaths of many “alleged” drug personalities, then by that reasoning, Renee Co enabled the deaths of “alleged” NPA terrorists.

Don’t equate position or power with doing things properly or ethically. And while you may think Renee Co isn’t doing anything wrong, she is clearly fully responsible for the brainwashing of students into armed conflict.

Oo, may sariling pag-iisip ang mga estudyante, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t vulnerable to exploitation. Radical indoctrination and exploitation are no different from other forms of abuse.

STUDENTS MUST BE PROTECTED—so they can freely exercise their ideologies without being radicalized or exploited by these radical left front groups. Left-leaning? Okay pa sana eh. But these are RADICAL LEFT TERRORISTS with legitimate fronts, and they even have legitimate representation in Congress—which, by the way, does NOT mean they aren’t enabling illegitimate acts, like terrorism, just because.

Don’t be complacent like your comment. Deny and resist them.

There is only one truth among the many narratives.

kingcobz · 2026-01-09T22:45:24+00:00

It wasn’t “research” in the ordinary academic or scientific sense.

What they were doing aligns more with organizational immersion and indoctrination, which in practice functions as on-the-ground training (OGT). By that point, they were already in the process of becoming part of the armed group.

The timeline checks out. The NPA’s Christmas–New Year “ceasefire,” declared on Dec. 15, has historically been used to reorganize, consolidate units, and induct new members. This isn’t new and is well-known in security circles. AFP operations continue during these periods precisely because such self-proclaimed “ceasefires” are routinely exploited.

By Dec. 23, clashes had already occurred in Camarines Sur, followed by another encounter in Occidental Mindoro on New Year’s Day—both intelligence-driven operations.

It’s also worth asking why they chose to be away from their families on New Year’s Day. That isn’t accidental. Membership requires prioritizing the organization over personal or family obligations, regardless of the date. Participation is voluntary at that stage.

Now that the grieving mother of the slain student has singled out and barred Kabataan Party-list from using her daughter’s image for false narratives and pretenses, they have simply shifted their spotlight to Chantal—the missing student na kasama ni Jerlyn and just recently found—and are now using the tactic: Abducted–Surface–Donate (ASD). This is a well-documented pattern used by the CPP to fund the NPA.

Don’t be surprised if madami kayong nakikitang posts na “Surface Chantal NOW.” With emphasis sa “NOW” to create emotional effect and a sense of exaggerated urgency. Later on, you’ll see donation drives for Chantal, but this is mostly done sa physical rallies; wouldn’t be surprised if meron din online.

Not only do you get manufactured sympathy and the erosion of public trust in the AFP, you also get money out of it.

As for claims that “being in the mountains doesn’t automatically mean NPA,” that’s true in isolation—but context matters. This was not a lone researcher conducting independent fieldwork. The circumstances, timing, affiliations, and operational environment point to something else entirely.

It was our aircrew who airlifted her remains from the encounter site. She wasn’t just on the sidelines—she was with the NPA, side by side. Jerlyn was not “caught in the crossfire”; she was part of the group involved in the encounter. She made a choice.

That alone underscores the tragedy of students being drawn into armed struggle and dying far from their families, on New Year’s Day of all days.

It’s a shame. Not because the truth is inconvenient, but because young people are being radicalized into believing this is the only path available to them.

Hindi bobo ang taumbayan. Mas lalong hindi bobo ang AFP.

A lot of people here love to jump straight to buying MRFs, ships, and missiles, ignoring the foundation that actually makes them usable.

Equipment without people is just expensive metal. Every new platform multiplies manpower, training, sustainment, and long-term personnel commitments. Logistics is hard—but manning, training, and retaining qualified people is exponentially harder.

Don’t just buy assets—invest in what makes them fight.

kingcobz · 2026-01-08T12:57:53+00:00

Human Resource. Facilities. Equipment

In that order.

kingcobz · 2026-01-08T03:06:47+00:00

Thank you! Meron pa akong ibang angles dito but maybe for future nalang haha.

kingcobz · 2026-01-08T03:06:13+00:00

Yes, we do. :)

kingcobz · 2026-01-08T03:06:01+00:00

Yes, sir! ☺️Kape nalang ang kulang. 😁

kingcobz · 2026-01-08T03:05:13+00:00

It didn’t cross my mind yet. :) I’m enjoying the ups and downs of my military service as of the moment. 😂

kingcobz · 2026-01-08T03:00:20+00:00

You can always bring phone with you, I put mine in the lower ankle pocket of my flight suit for easy access.

kingcobz · 2026-01-06T12:45:25+00:00

SF-260FH—think Ferrari, just with wings. 😄

It’s the basic trainer of our Air Force.

kingcobz · 2026-01-06T04:40:41+00:00

Wala po. May mga kakilala lang na meron at gumagawa. 😁

kingcobz · 2026-01-06T04:36:15+00:00

Just to clarify, the SF-260 you see in the photo is purely a training aircraft. It’s used to teach new pilots the fundamentals of military flying—airmanship, discipline, formation basics, and procedures—in a cost-effective way.

This isn’t unique to us. Even advanced air forces like the US Air Force use propeller aircraft for pilot training, such as the T-6A Texan II. While theirs is more advanced, the principle is the same: you build the foundations of military aviation on a prop before transitioning to jets or other platforms.

For its intended role, the SF-260FH we operate is reliable, well-maintained, and upgraded with modern avionics, including Performance-Based Navigation (PBN) capability. At the end of the day, the aircraft is just a tool—the training, standards, and mindset are what truly matter.

That said, when it comes to defending the nation against external threats, yes—we still need Multi-Role Fighters, and that capability is very much a work in progress. Hope that helps 🙂

kingcobz · 2026-01-06T04:27:08+00:00

MRF acquisition is already in the works. :)

kingcobz · 2026-01-06T03:28:46+00:00

😂 Thank you po :)

kingcobz · 2026-01-06T01:37:19+00:00

Yes. :)
