Philippines ex-leader Duterte arrested on ICC warrant over drug killings
The ICC accuses him of "crimes against humanity" in a drugs crackdown that left thousands dead.

Isn't this the guy Trump praised way back when?
"ICC is a criminal organization!"
- Trump, soon

I want to believe that there is still justice in this world, but I'm not very hopeful.

djsoren19 @lemmy.blahaj.zone Wow, that is incredible. I can't believe they captured him. He could actually stand trial for his horrible crimes, and his victims could finally have justice. The first of hopefully many crazy authoritarian nuts getting what they deserve.

Incredible is the word I'd use too.
And it feels kind of important to watch a dictator have to face justice right now.

commander @lemmings.world Good. The anti-drug laws in the philippines are barbaric and the perpetrators need to face justice.

10 0 Replyapt @lemmy.cafe That's Baybayin. It's an old Tagalog script that isn't really used anymore outside of aesthetic purposes. It's not commonly taught and used in schools for example. Even I couldn't read this without a guide. There are some efforts to try to revive it though.
Tagalog is usually written with the English alphabet. Like this: Magandang gabi po. Google Translate works.

- 'cause you're not seeking Tagalog content?
- because it's a small language, used by an extreme minority? More people use a language, more demand for translation. S&D⚖📉🪦
