Netizens can’t help but react to a Marcos propagandist who called out Drag Den Philippines over a controversial closing statement.
During Drag Den Philippines’ closing spiel on its December 8 episode, Manila Luzon praised Filipino talents who are being recognized around the world, but she also took a potshot on the government, which is also recognized around the world for its biggest corruption.
“Filipino talents are also recognized around the world—from having world-class performers and even the world’s greatest robbery of a government.
“And that’s a fact.”
Because of that spiel, one of the foremost Marcos propagandists, Coach Jarrett, blasted Drag Den PH.
Coach Jarett, in his YouTube Live on December 10 titled Drag Den PH Nagpapapansin? Greatest Robbery daw ng Marcos is a Fact?! blasted the show for using the Marcoses to gain attention.
However, the name of Marcos is never mentioned in the spiels of Manila Luzon.
That’s why several netizens took to Twitter to blast Jarett for his misplaced commentary.
Twitter user @DragUpdate laughs off the propagandist over his reaction to Manila’s spiels.
“ijk nag-iinit na mga tumbong ng mga apolo10 sa closing spiels ni Manila.”

@RealDaveAra, @lazuliJean, and @marcnas_ also reacted by tweeting the same sentiment, that no name was mentioned by Manila, thus wondering why the Marcos apologists reacted that way.
“Wala namang binanggit ah.”
