A comprehensive thread about my feelings towards duterte:
#OUSTDUTERENOW
I am livid. Through his (almost) 4 years of being President, I have never supported him. Maybe at the start, I believed that things might improve. I believed things might get better, and that the government would realize their mistakes and try to change them.
Through these four years, I have been proven wrong. Every single time they have been given the chance to prove themselves, they have done the complete opposite, and have only disappointed me more, as I'm sure they have with many other people.
It started with the drug war. I was a bit younger, but even then I knew that it was wrong to kill people without the due process first. The fact that anyone could have been suspected, then killed for that suspicion alone was wrong and always will be.
Then there were the disputes about the West Philippine Sea. That obviously steamrolled into him being the puppy of the Chinese Government. I could get into this, but that would take an entire thread on its own.
Now, I realize we are at a tipping point. I'm so fucking angry because- throughout his ENTIRE administration- he has shown nothing but a BLATANT DISREGARD for this country and its people, and has NEVER BEEN HELD ACCOUNTABLE. At least, never by enough people.
He has disrespected our human rights, thrown away law in place of personal agenda or emotion, and has all but been the SINGLE MOST COUNTERINTUITIVE FORCE in the country. Making jokes about him was and remains to be funny, but every reason for us making those jokes--
makes things less and less funny. I'm sure I'll add more to this thread, but here, maybe a good summary of everything I feel:
I am angry. I am tired. We deserve better than this, and that better will not be reached through COMPLACENCY. I am not willing to let this country go down without a fight, and I know that we more than deserve better. PUTANGINA. Pagod na ako.
The president and his blind followers deserve to be held accountable for ALL OF THE DAMAGE AND BULLSHIT THEY HAVE PUT THIS COUNTRY THROUGH.

Hindi na nakakatuwa.

Kelan na yung rally? Puta, mauuna na ako.
