'#BOTHERED'

Filmmaker Erik Matti called out Toni Gonzaga who hinted at being unbothered amid criticisms over her support to presidential aspirant Bongbong Marcos, son of late dictator Ferdinand Marcos.
Gonzaga reshared on her Instagram story a post of her fan describing her as "unbothered" following her controversial hosting stint at the Marcos-Duterte proclamation rally.
Matti initially explained the atrocities of Nazi German dictator Adolf Hitler during the holocaust and Marcos during the Martial Law period, saying that the horrors from the two historical events are real.
"I cannot fathom anyone, who have access to the same historical facts from our books and Youtube like everyone else, can still have the gall to hold their head so high to the point of being so arrogant and obnoxious..."
"...to brush away critics and dissenters even acknowledging and flaunting it with such an insensitive hashtag," said Matti.

"To give your support to any political candidate whether or not out of affinity, blood or loyalty is between you and your conscience," he added.
The actress-host hasn't released an official statement yet over the issue.

The campaign manager of Manila mayor Isko Moreno believed the ratings of survey frontrunner Ferdinand Marcos Jr. are bound to go down because of his refusal to face the media and presidential fora with other candidates. #BilangPilipino2022 | @mjaysoncayabyab
@mjaysoncayabyab Speaking to ANC’s Headstart, Lito Banayo said the voting public does not want a candidate for president to be afraid of facing opponents. “No way,” Banayo said when asked if he thinks the late dictator's namesake is the runaway winner based on latest surveys. | @mjaysoncayabyab
@mjaysoncayabyab "Marcos Jr’s survey ratings are high because of his tandem with the presidential daughter Davao city mayor Sara Duterte," added Banayo, a seasoned campaign strategist involved with the past presidential campaigns of Duterte, Benigno Aquino III, Joseph Estrada, and Cory Aquino.
