The bill defines “terrorism” as the commission of certain violent acts in order to intimidate the public, spread a message of fear, destabilize society, create an emergency or undermine public safety. It also stated that one of the purposes of terrorism is to “provoke or influence by intimidation the government” or “any of its international organizations.”

Oh.... no it's not.

Even innocent civilians can be arrested because the idealism of terrorism depends on what the military, police and government think. That also means children can be arrested.

The intention of the bill (to stop terrorists from harming anyone/apprehend those who already committed terrorism) is good. But the justice system here in the Philippines is shitty. Activists are red-tagged as terrorists by the government and the police. The problem with this bill is that it is prone to abuse. Should the citizens still trust a government who already killed 20k+ (according to the country's Commission of Human Rights) alleged drug users/pushers in their War on Drugs?

he doesn't give a sh!t about them though. they'd clearly do anything to prevent that from happening. :selena:

and tbh, this was to be expected. of course he'd sign it. i am disappointed more in the people in congress who didn't vetoed this bill. shame on them.

The threshold for what they consider extremist or terrorism is extremely low :air:

Wait so does that mean it's too late for international people to try and help? For example, would these still be helpful or is it too late?:

@BLACKPINK Thank you for answering my question over Charlie's thread. Can you please also let us know if it's too late for international fans to help you all in PH now? I really want to know because I've heard horrible things like the news being shut down and so many horrible things. If you do not wish to speak due to the bill just being passed I understand and am sending much love :hug:
