Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­


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.

Happy Monday!

Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What conspiracy theory is widely believed but clearly not true?

[–] aqua_synonym 8 points 1 year ago

Flat Earth. I'm astonished how many people close to me still believes that the Earth is flat and that we are prohibited from falling off by an ice wall at the edges.

Anyway, I've been through a conspiracy theorist phase myself (cringe, I know) so I can't really say I'm better than them.

The big pharma conspiracy is to a large extent just complete bollocks imo

[–] angmatandaa 2 points 1 year ago

The conspiracy loses its power more and more, especially with folks like Dr Farrah accusing "big pharma" of exploiting customers for profit while she aggressively attacks debunkers of her mineral and herbal medicines

Sindikato raw yung mga namamalimos sa jeep.

Kakatiting lang kita sa "raket" na yan to be a viable business model. And you'll split it with several other people pa? If yung mga sobre nila na may print ang ebidensya mo, that's actually charity by some printing presses. Naaawa sila and it's the least they could do for them.

Kung ayaw mo kasi magbigay (na iligal naman to begin with) then just don't give. Dami mo pa satsat and justification e.
