Gab Valenciano palaban, hinamon mga supporter ni Duterte; di magso-sorry

MATAPOS ibandera ang kanyang pagtutol sa pagtakbo ni Rodrigo Duterte sa 2016 presidential elections, inulan ng batikos ang anak ni Gary Valenciano na si Gab mula sa mga netizens na kampi sa dating Davao mayor.

Pero hindi natinag ang singer sa mga batikos ng bashers, nag-post uli siya sa kanyang Facebook account para ipagtanggol ang sarili at manindigan sa kanyang pinaniniwalaan.

Ayon kay Gab na nasa Amerika ngayon, “I woke up today with a barrage of messages over all my social media accounts, attacking not just my personal opinion, but my humanity as well.

“I would have loved to indulge in constructive arguments with people and go head to head on this issue, instead, they talk about how ugly I am, how I’m using this issue to boost my popularity, how I’m just desperately looking for attention because I don’t have a career anymore AND how I was never fit for show business,” aniya pa.
Dagdag pa niya, “It’s sad. Heartbreaking even. Not necessarily with what they were saying about my personal life, but seeing how real people who live real lives think and feel nowadays.

“It’s scary. It’s scary seeing where Filipinos stand culturally, socially, spiritually and mentally. What happened. What the heck happened. It’s deeper than just haters. It’s deeper than just trolls. These are actual people. The country is known to have a very shallow social media presence, but what about disgraceful, distasteful, uneducated, disrespectful and ignorant?

“I commend everyone who gave valid comments and arguments on my original post. Because you actually are for the advancement of our country and are educated enough to know how to handle opposition.”

“I stood up and spoke out for what I believe in, and I will not apologize nor back down. So come at me with your garbage, and I will retaliate with my education,” ayon pa sa anak ni Gary.

Nauna rito, nagbigay ng opinyon si Gab tungkol sa pagtakbo ni Duterte sa 2016, “No doubt, Duterte is a leader who leads, and leads well. But what about the model and nature in which that leadership is put across? Doesn’t that matter anymore? I respect him for his honesty and eagerness to lead our country back on track, but I cannot support his morality.”
