15 SONA reaction tweets that’s better than any commentary you’ll see

SONA is a source of drama and intrigue. Is it the fact that Bb. Joyce Bernal directed it this year? Maybe our feisty, feeling too legit to quit president is an unstoppable source of drama. Let’s face it, this nation is a Black Mirror episode that got shelved quickly for being too disturbing. We watch our dystopian future unfold in front of us today.

This is not to say that we’re staying put. There’s a responsibility within the youth. Whether it’s going to Anti-SONA protests or by the power of a hashtag, we keep it clear to the nation that we’re aware. Keep the bias commentary on the PR website of the Malacañang Palace. Here are reaction tweets from this year’s SONA that are serving better shade than any low-pressure area can.
