During President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s visit to Davao Oriental, negative reactions were widely seen on social media. Posts expressing hostility gained attention, leaving many Mindanaoans concerned about the spread of online hate.

In today’s digital world, everyone can share opinions instantly. While this empowers voices, it also allows negativity to circulate quickly, often overshadowing thoughtful discussion. It is important to distinguish genuine criticism from harmful hostility.

Social media may not always reflect the true sentiments of local communities. It can amplify some voices while overlooking others, shaping perceptions in ways that are not always accurate.

This post is not about hate. We do not hate, we do not condemn, and we remain unbiased. Our purpose is fairness—ensuring no one is hurt and promoting responsible dialogue that unites rather than divides.
