If in this Twitter echo chamber we can not be intellectually honest with one another, and see the world for what it is, and call the world for what it is, what hope is there for a country drowning in lies?

Troll armies know how to play the long game.
Also a fun note that we were able you track some 2021/2022 trolls with 0-2 followers back then, but now with thousands of followers due to a shift in content (some kpop, some Bini). Same like before, they are building communities but now, they seem legit because of +

PLA Navy recently completed naming of 5 more undersea features in the Indian Ocean high seas area - totaling 9 to date. While such naming moves don't amount to assertion of national sovereignty, a PLA Navy officer said, it reflects PRC soft power. https://t.co/85SGiZoR4w

The fact that we have one of the worst literacy rates in the world and yet our DepEd sec enjoys one of the highest approval ratings among cabinet members shows you how disconnected Pinoys are from reality. ‘Ika nga ni Mang Alvin, “parang walang sentido komon mga Pinoy.”

Not sure whether any CCG or PLAN vessel is nearby, but PCG and PH Navy chasing off maritime militia vessel without triggering further PRC response per Coast Guard Law is yet again remarkable.

A Chinese militia vessel was reportedly driven away by ships of the Philippine Navy and the Philippine Coast Guard in waters off Pag-Asa Island.

Hilarious, what does the historic Oscar win by Malaysian celebrity Michelle Yeoh have anything to do with "China is rising"? The least Hu should say is, "Malaysia bagus!"
Congratulations to Michelle Yeoh! So happy for her. China is rising, and Asia is rising. People of Chinese descent and Asian descent will definitely receive more attention, gaze and respect all over the world. https://t.co/VQb5OSkTMp

This is the great shame of the Filipino people. One would imagine should stand up for Ukraine.
The Ukrainian government has been contacting President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to arrange a call between him and President Volodymyr Zelensky to discuss the Philippines’ role in the Ukraine-Russia conflict but has not heard any response. READ: https://t.co/xSEpwDMGGJ

Why is there even a debate over the efficiency of Metro Manila’s airport terminals and transport system? I thought the aspiration was to be like Singapore? Do apologists know what SG standards are?

I mean Tim Apple just took a hatchet to Facebook’s entire bottom line and crying foul didn’t really change the outcome. But sure let’s try to fuck around and find out.

This is interesting. Back in June talk in diplomatic circles was that the Marcoses would set up a sovereign wealth fund: it would, among other things, supposedly provide opportunities to discreetly repatriate wealth kept abroad.

.@elonmusk could respond to my tweets but failed to respond to my letter by yesterday’s deadline and answer basic questions about Twitter verification. Congress must end the era of failed Big Tech self-regulation and pass laws that put user safety over the whims of billionaires.
A @washingtonpost reporter was able to create a verified account impersonating me—I’m asking for answers from @elonmusk who is putting profits over people and his debt over stopping disinformation. Twitter must explain how this happened and how to prevent it from happening again.

These people they are Filipinos for convenience. So if he was US citizen during all those years he made political commentaries and endorsed candidates, he might have been guilty of meddling in Philippine elections. Bawal yan, ser.

With all the talk of Twitter's demise, is it too soon to tweet this?
When it’s all over, I think @MarkHamill should get the last tweet.
