An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Sorry OP, but this article is a classic example of an advertisement masquerading as news.

It reminds me of an episode of South Park, where Jimmy sorts ads from real news articles. Audio volume is kinda low unfortunately

The very act itself is free advertisement, lol. Although tbf, a lot of businesses do this because there's a lot of benefit to it. Publicity, tax breaks*, students singing their praises, etc.

*hindi ako sure if it works the same way as in the US
