Twitter user @IamCharotism, formerly known as @IamRealGabisonEthyl the parody account of Ethel Booba, has been engaged in a word war with the comedienne ever since the latter revealed to the public that it was a fake Twitter account after she used it for eight years to boost her popularity.
Ethel said: “Itago nalang natin siya sa pangalang Fake Cuneta.”
THE Charotism Twitter account published a screenshot of when Senator Grace Poe sent a formal invitation letter for Ethel last March 13, 2018 to participate in a public hearing about fake news.
This is to clear the issue. We only received a message from Sen. Grace Poe's office last March 13, 2018 for the public hearing on fake news. Sorry na lang sa paratang at fake news nyo na ang message dito ay para bayaran. Charot! pic.twitter.com/clsjSUBAlX

Afterward, Ethel’s current partner, Jessie Salazar, asked Charotism if he ever received a gift from any politician. On the contrary, Charotism admin confessed that Ethel had asked him to make an excuse to Senator Poe so she could skip out on the public hearing. He added that accepting gifts from politicians is not allowed.
Admin Jessie sinend ko kay Boobita yang invitation ni Sen. Grace Poe para sa public hearing ng fake news and asked me na palusutan ko na lang na di pwede si Ethel kasi may show. Diba si Virnard na kasama nyo sa bahay katext at bigyan daw Xmas gift at hindi ako? Charot! https://t.co/ucPSGnEbp6

Meanwhile, a netizen tried to join the word war and asked Charotism which of them received a gift from the politician, here’s what Charotism stated:
Nagtext kay Virnard kapatid ni Ethel ang isang tao sa office ni Sen. Kiko Pangilinan natatawa daw sa mga tweets. Nag offer ng Xmas gift pero ayaw nina Ethel kasi nga DDS sila sunod nagbiro ako kay Virnard na sayang naman kunin na lang. Ending di na lang nireplyan. Charot! https://t.co/8iS2YQ9pR9

The word war between Ethel and Charotism doesn’t stop there. Ethel’s real Twitter account accused Charotism of being insensitive.

As a response, Charotism urged Admin Jessie to coordinate with Ethel’s siblings, as they are the ones who gave permission to continue using Ethel’s name for fame as well as to increase the talent fee of the veteran comedian.
Tsaka isa lang fake sabi mo joke lang yung tweet mo di mo ba naisip o talagang insensitive ka lang kasi mukha ko ang nakabaladra. Dahil ano sakin naman magagalit ang tao at di sau kasi wala kang mukha. Happy

Admin Jessie makipag coordinate ka sa mga kapatid ni Ethel Booba. Sila ang nagsabe na magtweet ako ng magtweet sa anong topic kasi habang nakikilala sya sa social media mas tataas ang TF nya at makikilala ulit. Diba gusto mo nga ikaw na daw mag manage ng Twitter? Charot! https://t.co/tK8ZdRolJu

There was a time when Ethel was about to have a guest appearance on ABS-CBN’s Gandang Gabi Vice, and the admin of former Ethel’s parody Twitter account was tasked to answer some of the questions. Ethel changed the script though to mention Mocha Uson.
Sinend nila sa akin ang script ng GGV may mga questions dun at sasagutin ni Ethel. Yung iba pinasagutan sa akin kasama na yang about sa fake news kaso binago din ni Ethel ginawang related kay Mocha which is malayo sa ginawa kong script. Charot! https://t.co/Drtfjzbcpv

The two did not let up in their attacks.
Ngayon lang yang 2020 kasi diba admin Jessie nagalit daw kayo sa akin kasi ayaw ko promote ang vlog nyo kasi sabi ko kay Geri ang pangit ng content. Charot! https://t.co/RQDBQZ9XRi

Inofferan ako ng kapatid ni Ethel. Maayos makipag usap si Boobita sa akin. Pero inayawan ko, kasi may work naman ako at maayos ang sweldo ko. Charot! https://t.co/SsYHrEpY9d

It can be recalled that Ethel once ranted about ABS-CBN shows with who had not paid her her talent feels. For clarification, Charotism revealed that it was Virnard, one of the siblings of Ethel , who asked him to do so.
Nag message kapatid nya na si Virnard na inuutos daw ni Ethel na magtweet ako about sa mga shows na di pa nagbabayad sa kanya. Yung mga taga GGV and Minute To Win It na nagmessage sa akin binigay ko agad phone number nila alangan namang sa akin pa idaan bayad. Charot! https://t.co/ByYHG0ZofD

Furthermore, Charotism recalled that the Twitter account used to have a “parody” term in the bio not until Ethel claimed it on It’s Showtime as hers. Since then, Charotism kept open communication with Virnard and Ethel.
Wrong. Parody account na to noon na may 100k followers while Ethel real account noon ay mayroong 30K followers. Claimed nya sa It's Showtime na ito ang Twitter account nya. Then mula noon kinausap ako mga kapatid nya na magpanggap na si Ethel kasi sumisikat ang Twitter. Charot! https://t.co/a2B8HbTMBz
