Cordilleran Content Creators and Political Neutrality

The silence of many Cordillera-based vloggers, influencers, and content creators on the rampant corruption plaguing the country is disappointing. Some of them defend themselves by saying "ayaw namin makisawsaw sa pulitika, neutral kami". Okay, that's an understandable position on the matter since personal choice naman talaga maging vocal sa mga ganitong bagay.

But here's the thing...

Many of them were politically-active during the recent election campaign. Ang sipag nilang mag-promote at mag-plug ng mga kandidato, pulitiko at party-lists. Yung iba, halos araw-araw ang pag-promote. Now that the election is over, they don't want to engage in political issues at ang rason nila is "neutral" sila.

That's not how neutrality works. 

Anyway, to the creators who have been vocal and active in the calls for accountability and transparency, kudos to you.
