The ICC has been investigating mass killings in crackdowns overseen by Duterte when he served as mayor of the southern Philippine city of Davao and later as president. Estimates of the death toll of the crackdown during Duterte’s presidential term vary, from the more than 6,000 that the national police have reported up to 30,000 claimed by human rights groups.

I remember hearing about the situation with Duterte a long time ago. It must have been hell to put up with a government which seemed determined to destroy some of its weakest. I hope things are better in the Phillipines now, and continue to get better!

Ah yeah, this guy. I had a great laugh during the pandemic, when he said, he would get the vaccine in public and later said it can't be public, because for some reason it was really important to him to get that needle into his ass. Best was the doctor, who said something like 'you must not inject anything in the central area of the buttocks!'.

I should probably decrease your laugh, you should know that the antivax in Philippines were at least partially manufactured by USA propaganda campaign.

Don't worry, the US has already installed a new puppet, son of the old puppet. As usual, the previous one can be thrown under the bus after he served his use.
