A Voice Silenced, But Never Forgotten!

Wazzup Pilipinas!?

We stand in rage, in grief, and in unwavering solidarity as we condemn the brutal and senseless murder of our dear friend and colleague, Gold Dagal.

Gold was not just a comedian—he was a warrior of words, a fearless truth-seeker who dared to challenge, provoke, and ignite thought through his art. His tragic passing is not just a loss for the stand-up comedy world, but a vile attack on the fundamental right to free speech—a right that forms the very backbone of any democracy!

He had no known enemies, yet he received death threats—proof that truth and humor, when wielded with fearless honesty, can shake the very foundations of power and belief. And for that, he paid the ultimate price.

Let this be our wake-up call: Silencing a comedian is silencing the conversation. It is an insult to the very essence of free expression.

Gold's death must not be in vain. We demand justice! We demand the truth! We demand a world where voices like his are not met with violence, but with dialogue, debate, and respect.

To his family, we stand with you. To his killers—know that the laughter you tried to silence will echo louder than ever.

Rest in power, Gold. Your voice will never be erased.
