nor is your argument a sound one. How is this opportune time and how is Bongbong challenging US? You or Berlectic have yet to provide evidence of that.
Give me material and strategic interests, beyond this idealism you put up in your head that they merely want more loyal person than Marcoses, and maybe I respond well.
I repeat, unless Bongbong makes a break with such polices, this is essentially like-father like-son system where it serves the US’s interests, and in return, they live in luxury.
The only basis for this is cuz lesser evilism (cuz somehow Bongbong “Martial Law” Marcos is better than Leni “NED” Roberdo) and US backed NGO Tindig (backed by NED’s NDI and IRI), which, while co-optive of the protests, I argue only is to hedge their bets.
Kasi yung Leni? Ofc, she’s a NED-lady but that doesn’t make Bongbong Marcos’ gov’t any less pro U.S - it’s not an independent force
You may say “he’s coerced”, but so is any leader when you have an occupier in your backyard propping your gov’t, and, unless you have a short memory, you must remember this is the son of the U.S-backed dictator, Ferdinand Marcos, unless Bongbong makes a break with such polices, this is essentially like-father like-son system where it serves the US’s interests, and in return, they live in luxury.
I don’t think you know much about the Philippines, and I don’t approve of you doing this lesser evilism.
The operation exploits existing tensions, pushes things in a certain direction at an opportune moment.
Could you explain to me how the US doing a color revolution in this time is an ‘opportune moment’, after recently doing some western military drills with the Philippines’ Marcos gov’t, who has ended the national Belt and Road initiative and has basically clashed with the Dutertes over their pro-China stance?
Oh, and don’t get me started on his military base expansion:
Fine, my apologies. I’ve just read this part on Killing Hope with Zaire: 1970s. They still wanted to overthrow that comprador Mobuto.
