In a plot twist worthy of a telenovela and a government PSA rolled into one, Sass Rogando Sasot has dramatically outed himself—again—but this time not as a political commentator, but as Allantroy: male, Filipino, and formerly powered by an expired U.S. student visa. Talk about plot development!
Turns out, gender may be a spectrum, but immigration records? Not so much. The U.S. may have said “bye, Troy,” but the Philippine laws are waving “hey, kabayan!” from the sidelines, armed with legal memos and a touch of archipelagic concern. Somewhere in a bureaucratic office, a DFA staffer just spilled their third cup of instant coffee.
Meanwhile, Sass (or Troy, depending on which identity is trending today) seems to think sovereignty is a fashion choice. Newsflash: you can’t ghost your citizenship just because you’re abroad. The internet never forgets, and neither do immigration forms. What a saga—Sasot’s got receipts, and now, so does the state.
MANILA—In a shocking turn of events, mainstream media has been caught red-handed engaging in what was once the exclusive domain of bloggers: spreading fake news with confidence, only to retract it moments later.
GMA News, known for its supposed journalistic integrity, boldly reported that former President Rodrigo Duterte had been denied asylum in China—based on an infallible, undisclosed “source.” However, in a plot twist worthy of a telenovela, the network soon backpedaled, effectively debunking itself.
This blunder has enraged local bloggers, who now fear their monopoly on disinformation is at risk. “We built this empire! We spent years perfecting the art of misleading headlines and baseless claims!” one anonymous blogger lamented.
Experts say the incident proves that no one has a monopoly on fake news. With legacy media now in the game, disinformation has never been more democratic.
