The Filipino people who lived and prospered under his government. You are aware that Marcos' son is the current duly elected leader of the Phillipines?

Anti-Marcos folks are communist rat murderers, funded by every communist regime around and the old regime democrat party rats. And you lap up their propaganda like a good goy


Yep I'm aware. Not a fan of communists, but same goes for oligarchs and kleptocrats. Current vp is the last presidents daughter. Marcos family may have been benevolent, but it doesn't change the fact that they used their position of power to enrich themselves.

You need to take off the rose colored glasses.

You need to stop listening to communist propaganda

Supporting Trump is a great start for you but you have a long way to go. This is global

Your sources are "the Filipino people" and "trust me bro." I am willing to agree with you but it would be sweet if you could tell me of any news source that reported on their activity besides these two.

You're talking just like a leftist. Talk to a Filipino, you don't need a news outlet to confirm something is true. Sheep behaviour

I'm not going to do your homework and dig up Filipino media

I have talked to my coworkers who are Filipino and fled because of Ferdinand Marcos. My first 1sg in the army was from there and left specifically because of how shitty the regime was.

Calling me a sheep and you cannot cite a single news organization that would shed that family in a good light. Instead you result to insults.

Next slide

Wow you totally win the argument. Just call me woke and don't provide any evidence for your claims other than word of mouth.

You think that Imelda and Ferdinand were randomly chosen by the Guinness world records as most corrupt government? Or that the wall street journal is full of shit when they report that the Marcos family has returned billions they stole since bongbong is back in power? And I guess amnesty international is also bonkers for going after F Marcos...

Lmk if you want links to these. Unless of course you consider all of them non credible. If that's the case name a source and I'll look up myself what they say about the Marcos family.

American Upper middle and upper class coping.

Maybe middle class.

Upper class burns effigies to unburden themselves from the crappy reality they propagate on the rest of us. ' Cremation of Cares '

His rule generated all that wealth, for the citizens too. It was literally his government and policies

And helps real people too, Marcos is extremely generous. My girlfriend knows alot of people


I bet :rofl:

Your gf knows people - so u know people.
That's it. Case closed.

But it might dawn on others (not u ofc - u r cocksure) that 1 persons opion and experience is not representative for the majority.
So when a boat load of credbile journalists have unveiled the hideous kleptocracy of that corrupt family (you can guess if I'm talking about Marcos or Trump (any answer is correct)) there might be sth to it.

Does that mirror the same claim of people saying "Well, I've heard so much about the earth being flat and round - the truth has to be somewhere in the middle - so she's oval!"?
No. Gid gud applies to sourcing information just the same as it does to playing hardcore in D2.

Just because so many Trump cult followers are saying he is good for the country, the people, the economy doens't make it true.
Just because so many Biden associates are saying his health is splendid when u could already clearly see his decline doesn't make it true.

The goal should be obtaining information to siff it for truth - not to reinforce your beliefs.
