Maria Ressa Plays The #VictimCard

Is it me or has it become very common for the Dilawans and their non-Dilawan allies at #TindigPilipinas to play the victim? Then vice presidential candidate Antonio Trillanes IV even wants to portray himself as a hero instead of a failed mutineer. Now it's time to talk about Maria Ressa who's now telling people at CNN Philippines that she's ready to face arrest. Hmmm but what if she really ended up in jail if ever investigations will show offenses where fining her isn't enough? 

This reminds me of how "brave" Leila De Lima was in claiming, "Go ahead! Arrest me!" Now, she's the noisiest person even behind bars. The same may happen to Ressa herself. She may be claiming she's ready to face arrest, she's now playing the victim card at the international community (so much for nationalism) because Filipinos don't want her anymore. Whether she likes it or not, more and more Filipinos are starting to see the harsh reality that they should have faced years ago. The Lala Land that the Liberal Party established since 1986 has been crumbling thanks to the information age. 

Should Ressa get arrested would it be similar to what Marcos did with ABiaS-CBN during the Marcos Years? Ferdinand E. Marcos Sr. shut down ABiaS-CBN without a proper hearing. CRappler is still given the chance to contest the claims. This is really where Filipinos can't afford to be silent about how Crappler has messed up the country big time. They need to tell the international media the lies that were spread by the Dilawans as not to make her look like a victim of oppression.
