You admitted to supporting Macron multiple times. Also, Macron calls himself a feminist. But your definition of feminist is a little different, it's "woman".
Actually, in Europe, hating men is probably a requirement to run for office.
You literally tagged me into Le Pen saying that she doesn't hate men. Or is your French so bad that you didn't even get that?
Thanks for drawing our attention to that. I had no idea that he was (by their standards) ultra-liberal. That being said, Duterte was also weak on sociocultural issues.
Things have been moving in the pozzed, Western direction there, but I guess we can expect the Philippines to really start following the West in earnest if Marcos is going to trigger the slippery slopes of abortion, divorce and alphabet nonsense. However, there are plenty of queers and trans and similar types around; they just aren't as much a centre of attention as their Western counterparts. Things definitely aren't going well in their university system, for example, some of which became clear bastions of anti-Duterte 'yellowtards' over the past few years.
There's something of a fight between populism (Duterte family), liberal-pluralist pro-Western bullshit (Marcos) and a vaguely Christian cuckservatism (Aquinos) going on there.
There has been a sort of agreement in which Marcos supporters effectively supported Duterte last election in return for Duterte supporters supporting Marcos in this election.
So, a lot of his supporters, yes. Marcos is now at the head of what is essentially a pro-Duterte party. However, Duterte himself basically claimed that Marcos would make a weak President. I don't believe he had ever officially endorsed Marcos even after it was clear that he had no successor to his legacy because of the bungling of two people: his daughter, and close ally Bong Go.
Because of his daughter's hesitation to run for the presidency until doing a partial U-Turn and deciding to run for VP, Duterte wanted a close ally who he has known for decades, Bong Go, to replace him. However, Bong Go also had limited motivation and didn't announce his candidacy until it was far too late, by which time much of the Duterte camp had decided upon Marcos. Bong Go then withdrew from the race, particularly because of poor polling and because he would only divide the Duterte supporters between himself and Marcos at that stage, potentially leading neither to win because of the Philippines' first-past-the-post electoral system (there is no Presidential runoff like in France).
Effectively, the reluctance of both people allowed the establishment to retake the Presidency.
lol, he supported Macron against Le Pen both times, because wahmen bad.
Actually, I didn't support anyone. I just gloated when a left-wing feminist didn't pass for right-wing and lost.
She literally told people she was a feminist. Did she really think she'd pass as a right-winger?

I didn't support him last time. I didn't support anyone, they were all pro-feminism.
No, I did. I just realized all words after "I'm a feminist but.." are bullshit.
Well, it's either that or someone who literally calls their movement women's revolution.
I don't support him, I support everyone against her. He's a corrupt son of a dictator, but she'd be worse.
BTW, she is pro-life.

We all know how much your principles mean to you. Unfortunately, you have only one.

Didn't Duterte or at least his party support Marcos?
