Of Zombie Politics .... ABS CBN a Boogeyman?

According to the latest gospel of a high-decibel DDS vlogger, President Bongbong Marcos has apparently passed away.

Despite Press Secretary Claire Castro sharing a video of her chatting with a very much-alive BBM, the vlogger insists the footage is "edited" and "fake."

Apparently, in the vlogger’s cinematic universe, the government has mastered the technology to create lifelike President-bots, but can't figure out how to lower the price of rice.

As per usual, when reality becomes inconvenient, the trolls point their fingers at the old reliable villain: ABS-CBN.

The vlogger is livid that the network reported on the President’s actual activities yesterday.

The accusation? That ABS-CBN is "bayaran" (paid off). It’s a fascinating projection—like a person standing in a rainstorm of troll-farm cash, accusing someone else of getting a light drizzle of salary.

The strategy is simple:

Kill the President (digitally).

Attack anyone who proves he’s breathing.

Claim the "Mainstream Media" is hallucinating.

This is a classic "Duterte Legacy" of Media Muzzling.

Netizens were quick to remind us of the drama's prequel. For six years, the former administration weaponized the state like a Swiss Army knife to gut ABS-CBN.

From Rodante Marcoleta’s relentless "hearings" to the final congressional execution of the franchise, it was a powerful module in political retaliation.

And yet, after all those staged spectacles and amplified accusations, there was zero criminal conviction.

No systemic wrongdoing has been proven in court. They didn't win with the law; they won with a remote-controlled vote in Congress.

It wasn't accountability; it was a "chilling warning" delivered in 4K resolution.

The comments section is having a field day with the "Didilis" (DDS) logic.

As one netizen pointed out, it wasn't just ABS-CBN reporting on BBM’s activities—it was every single channel.

To believe the vlogger, you have to believe that every journalist, every cameraman, and the President himself are all part of a massive, synchronized deep-fake production.

This is no longer "political opinion"; this is Kulto-Level Mental Gymnastics. The Routine: A backflip over the truth, a triple-twist away from evidence, and a face-plant into a pile of "fake news."

The Tragedy: Some of these followers have high-level degrees, yet they’ve traded their critical thinking for a subscription to a conspiracy theorist whose only source is "Trust me, bro."

While the trolls giggle and the vloggers rack up "pogi points" from their echoes, the adults in the room are worried.

Spreading rumors of a President’s death isn't just "content"—it’s Destabilization 101.

When you convince a segment of the population that the government is a holographic lie and the press is a paid actor, you don't just hurt the economy; you melt the glue holding the country together.

If the vlogger is so sure the video is fake, why not file a case?

Oh, wait—that would require "evidence," a concept that hasn't visited their YouTube channel in years.

In the meantime, the rest of us will continue to watch the news, where people are actually, you know, alive.
