Tuesday Vargas reacted strongly to an individual who allegedly labeled students of the University of the Philippines (UP) as members of the New People’s Army (NPA).

In a Facebook post on Thursday, January 8, Tuesday addressed the unnamed person, condemning the use of UP’s reputation in what she called a weak argument. She wrote:

“Do not drag the name of the school into your feeble-minded arguments. Hindi NPA ang mga iskolar ng bayan. Huwag po tayong naniniwala basta sa ganitong kwento. Nakakahiya ka Kuya. Kilala mo kung sino ka.”

Tuesday made it clear that UP students, often referred to as “iskolar ng bayan” or scholars of the nation, should not be mischaracterized or accused without evidence. She urged the public not to believe such claims blindly.

In the comments section of the post, she addressed the individual again, criticizing both him and the group of people supporting him in the communications section.

“Ita-tag ko na sana kaso in bad form kasi di tayo dapat pumapatol sa PWD. Pero Kuya naman, napaka babaw ng argumento mo at isang lupon pa ng mga di nag iisip din ang kasama mo sa comsec na nakiki isa sa iyo. Umayos ka!” Tuesday penned, emphasizing the shallowness of the argument and pointed out that the person was being reinforced by others who were also not thinking critically.

In a follow-up post, Tuesday called out the individual’s online following for spreading anger and misinformation. She explained that she would not stoop to the same divisive tactics and suggested that their strategy of provoking outrage would eventually fail. She stated:
