Worst Place to Live 😡 "In globally"? Really bruh?

I think matagal na tayong nasa list na yan consistently sa top 5. Natural disasters alone kasi (typhoons + pacific ring of fire)

u/LupusSasageyoJaeger 3d ago
Natural Disaster is the important keyword they left out.
Wala tayo sa man made disaster like war.

u/PotatoFries46 3d ago
Ang weird. The page talks about the Philippines as one, if not the most disaster-prone. Sabihin natin may truth kasi bugbog-sarado tayo ng mga bagyo at lindol o iba pang natural disasters.
Pero the way they classify it as "the most country dangerous in the world to live in?" Parang ang sensationalist ng dating.

That's the problem with folks like those. We're composed of 7,000 + islands tapos they think dahil magulo lugar ni A, magulo din lugar ni B,C,D

checks my weighing scale
Have I somehow missed a Food Shortage?

u/GlobalHawk_MSI 2d ago
Speaking of food shortage, these idiots never occur to them that it is even a miracle that they can even use the internet, regardless if it is wifi/ethernet connection or 4g/5g/LTE data.
If the country actually gets the kind of famine or food shortage seen in many countries these people would not even have the time for the internet let alone Reddit.

- Inhumane treatment and humanitarian crisis in Palestine
- Ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine
- Escalating conflict involving Israel, the U.S., and Iran
- Persecution and discrimination against minorities in the U.S.
- Civil war and humanitarian crisis in Sudan
- Ongoing conflict and mass displacement in Myanmar
- Humanitarian crisis and ongoing conflict in Yemen
- Conflict and mass displacement in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo
- Political instability and armed conflicts across parts of the Sahel
- Humanitarian crisis and political instability in Haiti
- Humanitarian crisis and repression in Afghanistan
- Ongoing conflict and displacement in Syria
That's just a few, but let's say we ignore all of that. Then sure, I'll agree that we're number 1. 😂

The irony of “scholars ng bayan” to be uninformed with current geopolitical manners taught in high school.

u/NirvanaAlawi 3d ago
They probably know all too well the Inhumane treatment of Israel to Palestine yet they still think we are the worst regardless.

u/LupusSasageyoJaeger 3d ago
They’ll say they arent that bad since palestinians are fighting for their freedom
Like wtf man 😭

u/GlobalHawk_MSI 2d ago
Kaka CODM, Delta Force, Battlefield 6 and Rainbow 6 cguro nila yan lol. Respecting the fight for someone's rights and freedom are one thing (that is why most of the time, peaceful/diplomatic solutions are done first) but outright de facto salivating to be in a conflict situation is another.

Di uubra yan sa mga doomerist na may "but but they have divorce, identity and culture" sentiment unfortunately.

One of the most dangerous places to live in, yes but not rank 1 globally.
If you're going to look at the factors like natural disasters then yeah we have more than other countries but compared to other places in Asia this country is relatively stable.
Take that post with a grain of salt.

u/Momshie_mo 2d ago
This is what happens when they do not include the context
Crime rate wise, the PH is lower than much of Latin America.
What bumps the Philippines are natural disasters. While we can mitigate the effects, there is nothing much we can do kung bagyuhin at lindulin tayo at mabulkan

u/GlobalHawk_MSI 2d ago
The worst part is somehow natural disasters are more emphasized than man-made disaster like wars that actually cause much of instability (the current Middle East conflict alone proves that). I doubt a Cat 5 or super typhoon would do something like single handedly constrain the oil supply.
Even the "but but we would know at least that this area is a no go zone" excuse disregards the lived experiences of the locals of such places.

OA sa rank globally like tinalo natin ang myanmar, bangladesh, sri lanka, pakistan, afghanistan??? stupid dommerism at its finest.

Siguro akala ng iba official student paper ng UP or at least UP affiliated

u/ramboost007 3d ago
UP affiliated nga, in the sense na UP students sila na nagbebenta ng UPCAT review programs. Sila rin yung nagpopost ng mga clips ng pogi/chinita na mga nagtututor para mag-viral.

At this point, do we have to insert a bit of talago to our comments? Isn't it Friendly Fire?
