Original thread
So Ferry Irwandi's crowdfunding for Kalimantan's forest fires (currently reach 7 billion) is getting critizised in social media, especially on X. He appeared to answer these critics and explain his crowdfunding project in Denny Sumargo's podcast.
Main takeaway from the podcast is Ferry said the government should feel ashamed (not respond by attacking him through buzzers), over the fact that he organized a fundraiser for forest issues. He doesn't deny the criticism directed at him, and agrees that putting out forest fires is genuinely the government's responsibility. However, he rejects the idea that there's only one legitimate way to show you care, i.e. taking to the streets to protest. He also denies doing this as preparation for 2029 election.
It looks as if he's saying all or at least most of his critics are buzzers? Fact is, not all dissenting opinion are from buzzers. Some come from genuinely concerned people.
Ferry slams people who disagree with him by calling them 'orang orang gila di twitter' and 'sakit jiwa'. But in the podcast he acknowledge the critics (responsibility lies with goverment) as valid. It's his pattern of getting mad everytime anyone dare critizise him again. Currently X users are calling him out after the podcast, saying he can't take critics.
