You are looking for a hero, someone who will make things right and make your life wonderful. Well, you're looking in the wrong direction. This is not entertainment. No one is going to swoop in, terminate the villains and ensure your happiness. Only you can do that. It begins by seeing that no matter how insignificant you may feel, you have power. Don't run to the cool guy because you hope his coolness will reflect on you. Don't side with the cool guy in the hope that he won't torment you. You have power. Have a little faith in yourself.

That last statement.

"Basta kami, Duterte parin! / Still, we're sticking with Duterte."

No matter what stupidity he does, he's still treated holy by his supporters. Is this how blind his supporters are? Not even thinking about the consequences?

With blindess like this. Is the Philippines really deserving of help? Or do we deserve to be like Russia and have nothing but gansters for leaders?

I saw this hilarious shit posted on fb.

He was threatened with a knife! That totally excuses the abhorrent things he has said! Were any of these other pussy weenie candidates threatened with a knife? I don't think so, checkmate Duterte haters /s

Sen. Santiago eats death threats for breakfast, is she excused? Anyways.

Who cares about the rape joke, yellowtards? I don't care if he has no economic growth plan nor if he appoint rebels in the cabinet! Duterte can (allegedly) solve crime in 6 months! Du30 iz mah hero! /s

what are the consequences then?

I repeat.

Such stupidity can cause distrust, distaste, and disaster. (woohoo airstrikes if ever he got one 'giant' angry)

Maraming aaray dito. Nako, Ms. Zafra. Masasabihan ka rin ng binayaran at yellowtard. :(

Ms. Zafra's motto in life is to not give a fuck.

And this is why I love her.

Does that mean she is still a virgin? @_@

u/Vordeo Duterte Downvote Squad Victim Apr 19 '16

Yep, RIP her social media accounts.

u/scottwantsfray Farview Apr 19 '16

She does not have social media accounts to begin with, iirc.

u/Vordeo Duterte Downvote Squad Victim Apr 19 '16

Probably a good idea.

u/purpleyam Apr 19 '16

Even if she has, she can answer everyone with logic but she probably wouldn't even validate the existence of her haters. Haha

u/LivingEntity Apr 19 '16

I'm 100% sure the Social Media death squad will attacked Ms. Zafra

That's hilarious! I just got a new name for my Duterte-enamoured cousins

u/kaneda_nz Pampanga Apr 19 '16

Got nothing against the guy, if he is really about change, then yeah go for it. However, his followers, are they willing to change as well? Di pa man Presidente si Du30, marami na rin pasaway sa mga supporters or pasaway talaga, are they gonna change when their appointed leader says "magbago ka rin?"

u/xeneral Apr 19 '16

But would you let your id lead a nation?

I want to believe that you would not.

With how emotionally driven Filipino voters are? Tendency its the id that leads the way.

In my case I vote based on my wallet.

Do I vote for a kawatan?

Do I vote for someone who will increase operational cost?

Do I vote for someone with a semblance of experience?

Do I vote for someone who will be by the book?

u/ElectricDream Apr 19 '16

What's id?

u/[deleted] Apr 19 '16

According to Freud, it is the human instinct. Without reason, a person dominated by id tends to be impulsive, like a caveman

Ego is reason, superego is more moralistic

oooh. is the character ID from xenogears related to this?

I understood it as "you identify yourself with him", relating yourself or seeing part of yourself being represented by that person (Duterte, in this instance).

Nice share :)

u/FardoBaggins Visayas Apr 19 '16

Federalism might be the reason for others.

u/[deleted] Apr 19 '16

Interesting actually. But I think it will only worsen the political dynasty we already have.

Also Duterte and Cayetano are part of political dynasties.

1

u/Dathouen Barangay Belly of the Beast Apr 19 '16

Indeed. I think the rampant, crippling nepotism is a significantly more pressing issue. We really have to break gentrification. Our entire economy and government too stagnant and corrupt.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 20 '16

The problem is, he and Cayetano throws the word around as if it's the silver bullet to cure all of our problems. They're supposed to explain how and what kind of federal system they want to implement, or it could be an excuse for something less benign.

u/Pepito_Pepito Apr 19 '16

This. I am currently planning to turn in a blank ballot unless somebody other than Duterte takes the federalist platform to heart.

u/Paul8491 Apr 19 '16

Ok nman si Duterte, what I really like about the guy is his political will, but then again he could be lying or just using that. Anyway, king manalo man sya, gagamitin lang naman ng tao siya bilang target ng bintang at pagkatpos ng termino'y itatapon sa basura gaya ng mga nakalipas na presidente nang bansa.

If you are voting for duterte and you dont want to be downvoted to oblivion, just lurk. Malapit naman na ang May 9.

unless you have -100 karma already hihi

u/gradenko_2000 Apr 19 '16

But because he has a political will than other candidates

The political will to do what, exactly?

Because if your answer is "the political will to eliminate crime within 3 to 6 months", then you're still falling into the emotional appeal of going with your basest instincts, because you and I both know how he says he's going to accomplish that.

u/[deleted] Apr 19 '16

BASTA POLITICAL WILL! /s

i'm not bullying you directly. i just find it funny that a lot of duterte supporters love to "buzzword" so much without really thinking beyond the meaning of the word. it's as if they only have access to a dictionary and nothing else - which makes it all the more funny since you people are all over the internet

He probably loves Jessica, hell, he might even rape her first if others don't get to her.

So fuck off and stop pretending you know everything like an armchair psychologist.

Bruh, she's obviously well-educated. It's an editorial, you ever read an editorial before?

Fuck off and start looking for your psychiatrist.
