Well, since this is pro U.S gov’t being opposed (Bongbong Marcos has actually welcomed more Amerikkkan military presence there), this is hopefully not a color revolution.
I don’t see any signs of a color revolution in these events yet either, but i would just point out that the mere presence of leftist and communist symbols at a protest is not enough to mark it as not being a color revolution.
The West’s regime change machinery is adept at co-opting leftist symbols and causes to deploy against governments they wish to topple. We have seen instances where communist groups either were infiltrated or were unwitting pawns in western regime change ops against anti-imperialist governments.
To really evaluate whether something is a color revolution you have to look into the geopolitical alignment of the government, the funding and organizations behind the protests, and other telltale signs such as messaging tailored to be appealing to western media consumers, etc.
In this case the clearest sign that this is not a color revolution is probably the fact that this is a US puppet government that is very hostile to China. I could see a color revolution being pulled under the previous Philippine government but not this one.
However, it’s still early and the information we’re getting is sparse. We should remain open to any possibility, to changing our minds based on new evidence.

You are completely right about this. I just hope that this is a positive development.

I am hopeful about this not being a color revolution as well. The protestors have some very interesting logos like this one:
