Now that I've found the connection between Laura Deramas and scammer amongsts/amongstss, as I said in the post, I'm now going to talk again about Laura and the scammer sheeyancjoje.
This is just additional proof that I think would help settle anyone's doubts regarding sheeyanc being another Laura Deramas scam, as user neechees has already made a well-detailed post about it, and explained it all better than I ever could, with relevant screenshots, comparisons, and even a map of Matina Town Square, and I really don't think that anyone who's read that post would still question its claims.
But on the video and subsequent posts she made on her short-lived new blog, Laura still strongly denied that she was in any way connected to sheeyanc. She was outraged at neechees and I for associating her name with sheeyancjoje, and claimed that "she had never even been to that place (referring to the photo of Matina Town Square that was sheeyanc's banner)" and that "Davao City is so big". She called me a liar and started demanding I show "the video I said that was hers" despite the fact that I hadn't mentioned any video of hers at this point aside from the apology video she posted herself:
So in the interest of countering Laura's claims and showing just how big of a liar she is, here is that video at last. Below it is sheeyanc's banner photo for comparison.
This video was posted by one Paul John Maquiling Daguan on Facebook on July 6, but it is no longer viewable on his profile now. Paul John is Laura Deramas' partner. The video looks to have been taken by Laura and Paul John's son (I have censored his face with an emoji), and as you can see, the place being shown outside the car is Matina Town Square. Not only that, but the angle and position from where it was shot is identical to the photo on sheeyanc's banner. Given the same white car on the corner the clouds and the coconut leaves at the upper right part of the frame, sheeyancjoje's banner pic could only have been taken at the same time and place where Laura's son took this video. It could be that their son was using either Paul John or Laura's phone, but either way is solid evidence that sheeyancjoje was Laura's account or at least ran by someone very close to her, as the photo could only have come from the same phone that was used to take her son's video.
(And before Laura tries to counter this with "someone is stalking me and copying what i post to make me look bad" which she is already trying to do in her post that I showed above, note that the photo could not have been a screenshot, given how it's zoomed out and clearer than what can be seen in the video. I also did not find this picture in any of their public posts on Facebook.)
The pushback to the term "cultural Christianity" from atheists is real odd to me because, as someone who has been an atheist since 13, only ever went to church a handful of times never with my own family (made a note never to sleep over at that friends house on a Saturday again bc I HATED church it smelled like shit, was boring, pews are uncomfortable as fuck, and the religious people I knew were all wildly misogynistic and I've never been here for being told I was less of a person for being Born Like This), and generally had no actual connection to Christianity in a meaningful way but still only knows Christian mythology, has been steeped in Christian values I had to untangle, and my religious understandings are still deeply Christian.
Like Ive never paid attention to the bible, church, Jesus, Christian teachings, or whatever but if you asked me about any religion the one I'll reliably know the most about is Christianity. I don't know why atheists are offended by being called culturally Christian because they have bad blood with the religion because like sorry bruh that doesn't mean you're less indoctrinated by Christian values if the culture you grew up in is predominantly Christian. In fact I'd say that religion being this ubiquitous in the culture regardless of anyone's consent to exactly ONE religion being shoved down our throats is reason to team up with other religious folks who ALSO don't like being constantly evangelized to by the culture at large, not a reason to throw a fit because you don't like being tied to a religion that is so ingrained into the culture that shit like "oh my god" and "Jesus Christ" are common expressions of surprise regardless of how atheist you are. Like surely I'm not the only atheist to notice the shocking amount of cultural religious shit that works it's way into my life and speech despite having not set foot in a church since I was like 10, and I can't remember the last time I was in one before that.
Idk man cultural Christianity seems like a pretty damn useful term to describe my relationship with a religion I never fully bought into and then actively rejected as a child yet still hold weird connections to and knowledge of just because Christianity is so baked into the culture I grew up in like it or not. If you want to be mad, be mad at the Christians who stole your freedom from religion from you, not usually religious minorities who discuss cultural Christianity and how it damages them too.
These individuals without name/gender/age/origin have grown in my pockets like mould after I forgot to remove a cough drop. The grey haired one is a criminal and the green one is a goat/dog/pest who comes by for girl gossip before heading off to break someone’s fence
Feel somewhat better after surviving the rain & talking to my sister, kinda drained but alive.
