A list of former students of the University of the Philippines (UP) who were alleged members of the Communist Party of the Philippines-New People's Army are now circulating on social media as a reminder that students from State Universities should not listened to the brainwashing of the communists and other legal fronts of the CPP.



Although some of these former UP Students were considered as martyrs by some professors of the University of the Philippines, most Filipino on social media agreed that they were just victims of alleged brainwashing of the communist movement in the country.
