Former Hashtag member Luke Conde drew flak from netizens after he tried to snag the attention away from Bea Alonzo who recently switched to GMA Network.
“It sucks that some people are expressing hate just because you got a job and want to provide for your family. Their audacity to give unsolicited opinions without knowing the true story and reason is so pitiful. Can they stop cursing and just be understanding instead,” wrote Conde.
His tweet received criticism from Netizens as they insisted that the bashing was meant for Alonzo, not him.
A netizen even pointed that when Conde transferred to GMA Network, he was not criticized since they understood his situation. However, this time, upon Alonzo’s transfer, there was indeed an issue. He even went as far as calling the actor “irrelevant”.
Conde’s transfer was indeed peaceful given that ABS-CBN had to limit its production, resulting in a number of artists and employees retrenched since it has no license to operate on free TV. He was not criticized for leaving given the current situation of the Kapamilya Network.

Another netizen mocked Conde by suggesting that he should not voice out his opinion when he is not the one getting hated on.

And to make matters worst, Conde clapped back at his critics, calling them “trolls”.
“Daming trolls. Tapos yung sigaw nang sigaw about respect, tahol din [nang] tahol. Tsk tsk! Paano ka kaya irerespeto?” Conde responded to the criticism.
But it seemed that the Netizens pressured the Kapuso artist after he deleted the tweets later on.
However, a Netizen had made screenshots of his post as evidence.

He also blocked the netizens who replied in his now-deleted tweets.
A netizen even found it amusing that Conde showed an effort to block almost everyone who opposed his tweet. Tagging ABS-CBN’s noontime show, It’s Showtime where he was formerly a part of, she asked if the actor did have an “attitude”.
