An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭

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.

Looks like there was no intention of arrest despite surrendering. Must have been trained to just better kill the suspect than let it drag to the court. That's drug war legacy there folks.
