It's no different from Eastern Bloc propaganda imo. Even more annoying in some respects because its the people themselves spreading it and not the government. You think things are in the pits there in 2025? It was way worse before 2005.

I was a doomer way before the current crop of doomers are active. Moved from the Philippines to the US. On my first visit after moving (almost two years after I left), the improvements are very noticeable. It was a reality check for me to stop dooming about the country.

The Philippines still has a lot of problems, but we must suck it up and make it better in a slow and sure way. But yes, if you want a chance to get rich quick, you're free to work abroad and/or migrate there.
