It’s tempting to fault Filipinos for the results (so far), but remember: this is historical revisionism in action. Years of fake news peddling and systemic misinformation. We have an education crisis, and Marcos-Duterte are to blame. Tuloy ang laban.

for the record, just because it's indie, doesn't mean it's a smart (or even good!) film. instead of blaming the masses for their taste, direct the criticism to the mode of production and system that uses media to condition people into passivity.
