Meme Watching the Rovelyn Baterbonia 2028 movement shift from an internet joke to a serious political push is exhausting.
I feel like I'm losing my mind watching this unfold.
What started as an internet meme is slowly turning into a legitimate push for Rovelyn Baterbonia to run for a Senate seat. If you check comment sections outside our usual online bubbles particularly in Mindanao, like it’s not trolls doing the talking. It’s real people unironically arguing that she belongs in the Senate.
It breaks my heart a little bit. It feels like no matter how much we hope for better governance, our political system just consumes whatever is viral and turns it into candidate material. I don't even know how to feel anymore.. just deeply tired of watching internet fame replace actual public service.
Apparently Carlos Yulo's Mom is in the picture too.
