EN: online altercation; flame war
The national sport of the Philippines, now with a digital arena. This is when a simple comment section on Facebook turns into a no-holds-barred war of words, complete with ad hominem attacks, screenshots of old posts, and the classic 'Respeto lang po.' It's the modern-day *sabong* (cockfight), but the chickens are our online personas.
Combination of English 'online' and Filipino slang 'bardagulan' (brawl, chaotic fight).
ROOT MEANING: chaotic confrontation; brawl; intense argument
A very popular term to describe comment section wars on platforms like Facebook, X (Twitter), and TikTok.
